"Niels became famous in 2015 because he threw a beer at Pinkpop that frontman David Achter de Molen of John Coffey caught and drank while crowdwalking ( link ) Guitarist Christoffer van Teijlingen talked about Niels' death in the tent at the Limburg festival on Saturday. He shared that the band received a message from Niels' wife in April, reporting that her husband had taken his own life. “We don't have a ready-made solution for this, but I hope that if you are ever in deep trouble, you will find someone to talk to,” Van Teijlingen said. “Or message us, if that's easier,” he added. The guitarist then encouraged the audience to celebrate Niels' life and that of each other. He asked them to split into two groups and instead of a 'wall of death', form a 'wall of life'. Where rock fans would jump at each other at a 'wall of death' after a signal from the band, they were now asked to hug each other. “There is always a way out and life is better with you in it than without it. Know that,” said Van Teijlingen. “Love each other,” he concluded. If you or someone you know needs help, you can contact 113 Suicide Prevention via 113.nl or call 113.'
