Alpha Flight, Vision Factory and Powerslave Copyparty 1989 Holland

Short clip from the Swedish TV-show Bit för Bit (1989-1990).
Ript and released at Datastorm 2010 by MEGABOYS

The party was held in Hertogenbosch near Venlo, Holland, presumably for the amiga scene.
It is uncertain whether there were actually competitions at all. The power
supply broke down a lot, it was hot due to AC not working and shortage of space.

According to Cracker Journal #16 - The interviews might have been done by people of Exceller B.
Quote: -"I forgot to mention the people from Ecxeller B, they walked with a video-camera around and made interviews"

It would be really cool if the guys from Exceller8 or someone from Powerslaves or Cult(?) would be so kind to drop a line - or, really, anyone who attended the party and thereby made history. Memories, anyone?

Wow! What a great snapshot of the scene. Thanks for uploading this.
