Focus - "Hocus Pocus", 17. Februar 2023, Gigant, Apeldoorn NL

The Giants of Dutch Progressive Rock still on top of their game. Their signature piece with flute/vocoder intro and extensive drum solo.
Please also check my other progressive and classic rock videos on my youtube channel.

Thijs still has it! It takes a lot of talent and skill to play keyboards and flute simultaneously.

It still amazes me that Pierre van der Linden _still_ has all the energy!

He eats havermout every morning and chews it very well and swallows it very slowly. With his own teeth. All his own teeth? Psssh, stay focused!
