Shy Bairns Get Nowt – Verlegen kinderen krijgen niets

Frontman Jurre Otto vond de zin 'Shy Bairns Get Nowt’ al struinend door de stad, gekalkt op een muur, middenin het schrijfproces van het tweede album van Queen’s Pleasure. Het resoneerde meteen. Het lijkt ook zo te zijn in deze tijd: als je niet schreeuwt word je niet gehoord. In een wereld waar polarisatie en algoritmes bepalen wat de orde van de dag is, is er zelden ruimte voor nuance. Gelukkig is meeschreeuwen geen probleem, het Amsterdamse viertal heeft genoeg te zeggen. De leden, inmiddels twintigers, spelen al samen sinds hun tienerjaren. Op de tweede plaat spelen en zingen ze alles wat ze dwars zit gepassioneerd van zich af. De Britrock raakt steeds meer met postpunk  doordrenkt. Het geheel krijgt een punk-energie mee, gedragen door de bas Jelmer van Os en de drums van Sal Rubinstein. 

Opgenomen in de afgeslotenheid van Vlieland in de winter dook de band het verlaten poppodium De Bolder in. Hier werkten ze onder toeziend oog van producer Frans Hagenaar met onverminderde energie aan de “moeilijke tweede”. Maar van echte moeilijkheid was in dit geval geen sprake: De twaalf nummers van de plaat barsten van de ideeën, van de creatief gevonden drum- en basritmes en de snijdende riffs van gitarist Teun Putker tot de lappen tekst die Otto bijtend in de microfoon lijkt te spugen. Maar toch is overdaad nergens te bekennen, productioneel wordt er een sterke focus gelegd op de kern, de instrumentatie die allemaal in één keer op de band gevangen is. Met een minimum aan overdubs en versieringen hoor je hier altijd een band in hun puurst mogelijke vorm. Het is dan ook makkelijk voorspellen wat je bij een concert van Queen’s Pleasure kan verwachten: Een liveshow waar de urgentie vanaf spat. en waarbij je naar  elk bandlid individueel al een hele show zou kunnen kijken. 

Ook tekstueel is die drang om tot de kern te komen sterk aanwezig. Overal waar Otto kijkt ziet hij oppervlakkige facades en met scherpe tong prikt hij daar dwars doorheen. De irritant stoere praatjes om indruk te maken (Living A Lie), de voor commercie  geëxploiteerde seksualiteit die je in elke reclame ziet (Playboy’s On), de misplaatste trots die Nederland nog steeds lijkt te hebben op het VOC tijdperk (My Eyes Adored You Too). Otto is zelf niet immuun voor deze geidealiseerde waanbeelden. In Man In A Suit krijgt  die geïdealiseerde versie van jezelf zelfs een fysiek gedaante. Die man in het dure pak  aan wie je jezelf altijd maar moet meten. Op Monday beschrijft Otto hoe het einde der tijden komt (natuurlijk op een maandag) maar het moeilijk is om daar echt iets om te geven. Waarom zou je ook als er toch nooit iets verandert?Zo dwaalt Queen’s Pleasure muzikaal door de stad, die wonderlijke maar onvergeeflijke plek waar alles lijkt te gebeuren. Elke wandeling gevuld met herinneringen aan alle moeilijke gebeurtenissen die hier eerder hebben plaatsgevonden, maar waar je ondanks dat toch niet weg kan blijven. Het is geen makkelijk bestaan, maar wat er ook gebeurt, Queen’s Pleasure blijft onuitputbaar zoeken naar dat wat echt is.

Shy Bairns Get Nowt verschijnt op 20 oktober via Excelsior Recordings op CD, zwart- en gelimiteerd transparant vinyl.

Nearly 3 years later, Asurion had my back :)
In Nov of 2017 I bought a $900 35" Ultra wide PC monitor for Gaming and Work. It was made by a company called AOC/Envision and I bought it through amazon. The monitor had a 3 year warranty that I was still within but they said no to a defect that they said was only covered for 1 year, even though it wasn't the type of defect that was only covered for 1 year. LUCKILY, back in 2017 I had purchased an Asurion insurance policy with this monitor. I told an Asurion agent in a instant messaging chat window on the Asurion website my problem and she sent me postage in an email. I shipped my product and in 5 days from shipping it I received a text telling me that it was beyond repair and I would be getting a FULL REFUND! Not 2hr later, in an email, there it was, an amazon gift card code for $900 I will not be making any big purchases without an Asurion plan going forward. Happy customer Don't buy anything AOC

Received a refund
I purchased the 4-year protection plan offered at the time I purchased a refurbished printer. Seven months later the printer failed, so I went searching through my Amazon orders for my protection plan and located it. Once I created an account on Asurion's website it showed the the plan but it was not attached to a specific purchase, so I had to locate and upload the invoice for my printer. Once that was done, the policy still wasn't linked for some unknown reason. I proceeded to start the claim anyway stating that my printer had failed and I received an immediate reply stating that a box would be shipped to me for me to return the printer for inspection/repair. After a week I hadn't seen any additional info so I called their support phone #. The service was very good and they had to create a new case to replace the one I started online, and they assured me that a shipping box would be sent. About a week later I did receive the box with a prepaid shipping label to return the item by UPS. I packaged the printer up and sent it off. I received updates stating that they received it, were looking at it and attempting repairs. Everything appeared to be going along well, then out of the blue they sent me a notification of a full refund in the form of an Amazon gift card. Overall I'm satisfied and I'm glad I purchased the coverage.

Worst Experience of my Life
My Epson printer had problems with it's software in early mid April, while trying to resolve the software glitch which I could not, I found that every picture I had scanned for some time had lines running through it and no cleaning process or other process that Epson had would get rid of it, and everything I had scanned for my project, was ruined. I sent the machine to Asurion following their instructions and explaining the issues. They sent it back to me after a month saying they had double checked and fixed everything, I spent some time setting it all back up, only to find that exactly the same two issues were still present and the machine was unusable. I sent in a second request, this time they sent it back to me a month later saying they couldn't find anything wrong with it. Hooked it up again, same problem. I complained numerous times asked for them to warranty the item; they would not unless I sent it back to them and they kept it and then they would give me a credit on my amazon account to buy a new one. I packed it up and drove to UPS a third time and mailed it back to them, after about three weeks they sent me a note that they had it and that they were sending it back to me as they couldn't find anything wrong. Three times I ha filled out their entire sheet with product, date of purchase, problems detailed, receipts, picture of the lines in the photos that it was making over all the scanned photos. Then after two weeks of back and forth they sent me a message telling me they couldn't warranty it until I filled all this information out again on line. Then they told me they couldn't read the tiny print off the receipt printed off the Amazon site, which I cannot change. I then blew up the receipts and circled everything and sent it back to them again...of course they already had now five copies of this same information, they had paid for postage three times to NY and back to fix it and they still aren't able to process a payment to me????? Finally I get a call from a gentleman telling me that I will have a credit to my Amazon Card in 72 hours. Great. Then he calls me back the next day and says the warranty team has decided they would not warranty the item and credit me but they will mail me a check in 7 to 10 days. After over four months of this I received a check...will it bounce? I don't know yet. My project that I was working on was for my mother's Celebration of Life, I could not do what I wanted to do for her, this caused me emotional pain, as well as the obvious frustration of four months of aggravation and complete and total ineptitude on their part.

Asurion Protection is worth it
After 3 years monitor had power issues. Asurion was unable to repair the monitor and provided a full refund with an Amazon Gift Card. Support was excellent and process was quick and easy.
