DE NEUS VAN GOD
Hendrik Van Dacquin on Townes Van Zandt
The long-awaited return of Ser Dacquin on the Radio Panik plateau, continuing his series on the tragic lives of lonesome geniuses (genii). This time: the life and times of the always great, always late Townes Van Zandt.
After a full year preparing for this moment, Hendrik Dacquin finally presents his master thesis on the life and times of none other than top Texan Townes Van Zandt 💙 In this show: gorgeous songs, meticulously prepared anecdotes, a lively & highly erudite discussion, and an inevitable veering off-script as the Jupiler (oh god) cans pile up.
