The Rolling Stones - Havana Moon
26-dec-2016
On 11 November 2016 Eagle Rock Entertainment will release ‘’Havana Moon’’ by The Rolling Stones on DVD, Blu-ray, DVD+2CD, DVD+3LP, Digital Video and Digital Audio plus a special Deluxe Edition.
Good Friday – 25 March 2016 – is a date that will go down in both Cuban and Rock ‘n’ Roll history. The Rolling Stones became the first rock band to play a massive free outdoor concert to hundreds of thousands in Havana. This historic concert was captured by award winning film director Paul Dugdale and the result is:
‘HAVANA MOON’ – THE ROLLING STONES LIVE IN CUBA OUT ON DVD
The British rockers free show attracted a million people in the country’s capital city in the same week as President Obama became the first US President to visit Cuba in 88 years. TV News Networks around the world reported that Obama was ‘the warm up act’ for The Rolling Stones. As the Stones took to the stage under a perfect ‘Havana Moon’ in front of an ecstatic crowd everyone knew that this was a life changing cultural moment for a country on the brink of change. There was nothing that was going to come between the band and their eager fans including the Vatican in Rome who had objected to a big rock ‘n’ roll concert staged in Havana on a Good Friday.
Mick Jagger welcomed the massive crowd: “Finally the times are changing, Cuba we are so happy to be here” and joked with his bandmates during the performance describing them as “the revolutionary Ronnie Wood, drummer Charlie Che Watts, and compadre Keith Richards”.
They played all the big hits including ‘Jumpin’ Jack Flash’, ‘It’s Only Rock ‘n’ Roll’, ‘Paint It Black’, ‘Honky Tonk Women’, ‘Start Me Up’, ‘Brown Sugar’, ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’ and ‘(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction’ in the two hour plus performance all captured here on their ‘Havana Moon’ DVD.
As a Cuban Stones fan said, “Wow never, ever, ever did I think we would see this happen. Tonight has been a dream come true for me”, while another said: “Simply fantastic – this is a moment I have been dreaming about for a really long time. I have just witnessed the most important concert in Cuba because this is The Rolling Stones.”

The Rolling Stones - Olé Olé Olé : A trip across Latin America
26-dec-2016
THE ROLLING STONES – ¡OLÉ, OLÉ, OLÉ! A TRIP ACROSS LATIN AMERICA
The Rolling Stones Olé Olé Olé!: A Trip Across Latin America is a feature documentary that follows The Rolling Stones’ tour of early 2016 through 10 Latin American cities. The film combines electrifying live performances from across the tour and from their historic tour finale as the first ever rock band to perform to an audience of 1.2 million in Havana, with an intimate insight into the world of The Rolling Stones.
A road movie that celebrates the revolutionary power of Rock n Roll, exhilarating and vivid, the film chronicles the tour, local culture and unique bond that exists between the Latin American people and The Rolling Stones. A portrait of a band still at the very top of their game that have seen it all but remain as hungry as ever to break new ground.
Directed by Paul Dugdale, produced by Sam Bridger and shot throughout February and March 2016, the film is produced by JA Digital in co-production with Eagle Rock Films for Eagle Rock Entertainment and Promotone .
The documentary captures blistering performances and unique personal experiences as the band visited Latin America for the first time in ten years. True pioneers of rock, the Stones, who have toured every corner of the globe, explored new horizons bringing their high octane performances to countries Uruguay, Peru and Colombia and the city of Porto Alegre, and of course, Cuba, for the very first time. Fans will see Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood mesmerize their generations of fans with full performances of classic hits from their extraordinary catalog such as, “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction”, “It’s Only Rock ‘n Roll”, “Wild Horses”, “Honky Tonk Women”, “Sympathy For The Devil”, “Paint It Black” and “Miss You”.
Throughout the film viewers will hear personal stories and insights from the band on their chemistry, what it is like to tour and perform for tens of thousands of adoring fans, and memories and influences of these cities over the past 50 years. The 105 minute film, kicks off at the bands tour rehearsal’s in Los Angeles, before they embark on the 2 month tour. The band immerses in the local cultures of these cities and the viewer learns about each destination’s influence on the band and how the Rolling Stones impacted the cities and its people.
In Argentina the Rolingo superfan culture is examined; in Uruguay the group visits a family of local drummers and jams with them; in Brazil, Mick and Keith fondly recall writing “Honky Tonk Women” in a ranch hours outside of Sao Paulo in the 1960’s and tell stories before sitting down to play an acoustic rendition of the hit song; also in Sao Paolo Ronnie paints with a Brazilian friend Ivald Granato and discusses the importance of art in his life; in Lima the band watches Afro Peruvian dancers perform before joining in with them; and in Cuba we learn the stories of a Cuban mechanic and instrument repair woman, who discuss the positive changes coming to the island.
Throughout the film the viewer gets an inside look at the interworking of the creation of the historic Cuba show, through interviews with the tour promoter, management, production and logistics managers, and the band members themselves.
The Rolling Stones Olé Olé Olé!: A Trip Across Latin America will premiere on September 16th at 9:30 at Roy Thomson Hall.

Uit het leven van 2016
24-dec-2016
NOS Uit het leven van 2016
In 2016 ontvielen ons enkele heel grote namen. Ware legendes als Johan Cruijff, Mohammed Ali, David Bowie, Jean 'Toots' Thielemans en Prince. In de uitzending worden herinneringen opgehaald aan deze en andere beroemdheden, maar ook aan overledenen wier bekendheid omgekeerd evenredig is aan hun betekenis. Zoals de ontwerper van de bekendste aller boekenkasten: de Billy. Of de man die de eerste e-mail verzond. En de gitarist zonder wie Elvis Presley waarschijnlijk een muzikale boerenpummel met slechts regionale bekendheid was gebleven. Herman van der Zandt maakt er een niet-zwaarmoedig eerbetoon van.

2016 Oranje Jaaroverzicht
NPO2 24-dec-2016
NOS Oranje Jaaroverzicht
Het jaar 2016 gaat voor de Oranjes de boeken in als het jaar van financiële kwesties en van drie staatsbezoeken. De financiën van het Koninklijk Huis haalden een paar keer het nieuws. Een vermeende, nog door prins Bernhard gesloten, belastingdeal bijvoorbeeld. Of de toekomstige uitkering aan kroonprinses Amalia. Een goede aanleiding om de uitgaven voor het koningshuis eens overzichtelijk op een rijtje te zeten. Frankrijk, Australië en Nieuw-Zeeland waren het afgelopen jaar de bestemmingen van een staatsbezoek. De NOS reisde met het koningspaar mee en dus keren in dit jaaroverzicht de hoogtepunten van die reizen nog eens terug. Daarnaast blikt presentator Astrid Kersseboom vanzelfsprekend terug op jaarlijkse ijkpunten als Koningsdag, de Dodenherdenking, Bevrijdingsdag en Prinsjesdag.
