Band Name Origins:
- Frank Boeijen (keyboards), interviewed by sandandmercury.com : "The name the Gathering has been made like eleven years ago when we started this band. We were all between 15 and 17. We were watching a lots of movies those days. One of the movies spoke about immortality and that you could kill the immortals with cutting their head off [it's the first Highlander Frank is speaking about]. In the first part of the movie, they speak a lot about the gathering. There will be a gathering once with all the immortals. We though it was a nice name for a band, and that's how we created this name. And you can feel it's a cool name for five people who come together to make fine music." Submitted by: Vorn

Story about this misheard lyric by: Fudge I thought these were the lyrics for ages. I thought it was some crazy song, and I would play it for everyone I knew. And I always sang the wrong lyrics! No one ever questioned me, but I kind of wondered what they were on when they wrote it. One time, I was at school and found the real lyrics, then screamed 'Oh!! Wow, that song actually makes sense!!' Everyone stared at me despite my trying to explain. |
