Il Segno Del Comando & October 30, 2022 - 't Blok, Nieuwerkerk a/d IJssel (NL)
To see the Italian prog act Quel Che Disse Il Tuono on a Dutch stage wasn't that easy as it seemed in the
first place. The band was booked by the people of the amazing ProgFrog team to promote their excellent debut album
Il Velo Dei Riflessi (2020, see review) in the Netherlands. The concert was planned for the 5th of July
in 2020 together with Cellar Noise, another amazing prog act from Italy. But as we all know the gig had
to be postponed because of the pandemic that was going around all over the world. Then it was planned for the
11th of October the same year. But the corona virus was still going on so they had to cancel it again. No more
concerts for 2020 could be planned and also 2021 was very uncertain if any concert would take place. Towards the
end of the year the green light was given to organise any gigs for bands. But everything was already fully booked
on the ProgFrog calendar that eventually the 30th of October in 2022 was chosen as the date it finally would
take place. However not with the earlier mentioned Cellar Noise. They were replaced by another fantastic
Italian prog act. Namely Karmamoi. However it was not the end of the continuing story of getting Quel Che
Disse Il Tuono on a Dutch stage. Next up came the news that also this band was not able to come to the Netherlands.
On short notice Il Segno Del Comando (another Italian prog act) was found to step in and take the journey
to the low lands together with Quel Che Disse Il Tuono. So finally in the end everything turned out right and
both bands climbed the stage at 't Blok in Nieuwerkerk aan de Ijssel to make their first live appearances in the Netherlands.

Quel Che Disse Il Tuono
Looking back, I can only say that both bands entertained me and the rest of the crowd in a perfect way. So I can only say thanks to both bands for taking the long journey from Italy to the Netherlands to play their music in front of a great audience. Also thanks again to the amazing ProgFrog team for giving those two Italian prog act a stage to show all of their musical talents. I guess we all had a blast on a rather Sunny Sunday afternoon in late October. Henri Strik (edited by Tracy van Os van den Abeelen) |
