The Editor's Bit

I really should start working on the Stun covers earlier instead of leaving it to the last moment every month. In the past, May was the month of the Rugby Sevens Tournament, but that’s moved to the start of June, so I can no longer use that for the cover. I forgot about the “Weekend van de Rollende Keukens” that I used for last year’s May cover, but I haven’t got any suitable photos anyway. In the end, I jumped on my bike yesterday afternoon and went into town to take a photo of a building that hasn’t been on the cover before. At least it means we can have an easy Cover Competition this month; details on page 4.

Talking of afternoon; I ventured out in daylight every weekend last month! You can see a couple of the musical acts I saw on a Sunday afternoon on page 22.

My Kings Day Pub Crawl didn’t work out as planned; I got to Oporto around 5pm and only escaped after last orders had been called, so I didn’t make it to anywhere near the number of bars I wanted to visit. Photos from places I did get to on Kings Night & Day start on page 14.

Anyway, all of our usual stuff is here, so enjoy your May edition of the Amsterdam Stun.
