Henk did a short tour of Switzerland a few months after Robert Jan Stips left the band. He was backed by excellent Swiss band Stop The Shoppers for this tour and they played a nice mix of rearranged old Nits tunes and songs Henk had just written.

This is the early version of H.O.M., which was still called Heart Of Mine then.Switzerland Dennis Versteeg
