From January 01, 2006 on I started to post a daily item called "What happened in Golden Earring history on... " on the Internet Golden Earring Newsgroup (Alt.music.Golden-Earring) I posted a daily message with information about the Golden Earring history for that day. If you should have additions they are welcome of course and you could reply to my newsgroup message or send me an email personally. This is the website version of these postings. Let's see what we can dig up from those "Golden" years in the past... #ThisDayInMusic #ThisDayInGoldenEarringHistory

I started with information online about gigs and events from 2000 untill now. In 2007-2008 this info was extended with earlier years whenever I have an opportunity but as this is a serious and large project this will take time and we have to make a start somewhere. But i'll try to incorporate all kind of info like radio and tv broadcasts, concerts, hit info, birthdays and other special events. Please be aware of the fact that untill 1992 only electric shows were performed, from 1992 also acoustic performance were done. In 2009 I continued to update this file as much as possible. In 2010 the list was updated again but still many already known facts and dates as published in the tour dates file have to be imported. Facts for 2011 to 2018 were added and some facts for previous years were added along the way. In 2021 the list below still isn't complete yet because of the immense amount of work and a lack of time. In 2021 the list will be further updated again with the latest info and several updates for past shows. I hope you like this initiative. Feel free to send me your additions as they are much appreciated!

2005 Today the sadly deceased Golden Earring fan Louise Donk was cremated at Uden Crematorium. At her cremation the newest 2004 Naked III version of the song I've Just Lost Somebody was played. This song is dedicated to Louise Donk by the bandmembers. Louise got killed in a car accident due to useless violence. The cdsingle was especially sent in advance by Universal Music to the family of Louise to make sure the song could be played at her memorial service. The memorial service was attended by hundreds of people and amongst them were many many Golden Earring fans and Golden Earring guitarist George Kooymans who came to pay his respects on behalf of the band.

2005 Rinus Gerritsen and Barry Hay did play a set during The Clarks concert at the Westwood, The Hague. Normally Cesar Zuiderwijk would have been there too to play along, but as mentioned Cesar did perform Saturday evening January 15 at the end of the Ready 2 Play night at Musicon Music centre The Hague.
