If you came here from Digg it would be great if you could actually Digg us too! Do you have a start-up that we should write about? Contact us! Thanks for visiting and hope you come back again!
Don’t ask me why, but Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht decided to grow a mustache for their live show at The Next Web in Amsterdam…
He just posted that on pownce
“Finished taping Diggnation — Alex and I agreed to grow mustaches for the Amsterdam show… damn it, what have I gotten myself into… ”
Wonder what the Dutch ladies think of this??
Any girl out there that want to shave Kevin or Alex?
Can’t wait to see what is going to happen… total chaos

I would love to shave their mustaches! Otherwise it tickles when I give them the traditional Dutch three kisses greeting, when I meet them at NextWeb.

This hopefully is going to be just as funny as the London taping last October :D

@marlooz that is a deal, but why three kisses… and not just one real Dutch one in the middle :)

I think Marlooz shaving them on stage would be an awsome idea.
@marlooz: how are you with a straight edge razor? If you need any tips check with Robert & Vivian: http://www.videojug.com/film/tips-on-shaving

@remco that might take a little bit to much time :).. Quick and dirty would do the job.

I would love to shave them Graig David style! Give their beards some VA VA VOOM!

I’m sure I can do it faster than the stylist in the video.

@marlooz, try it on me first then. Next week on Thursday, you and me shaving date :) ?

@Patrick: I think quick and dirty is the only think Marlooz knows ;-)
@Marlooz: perhaps you can practice on Vincente’s head?!

http://pownce.com/kevin/notes/1586662/ also mentions that “everybody should come by as it is free to get in” ;)
Don’t want to shake up things, but I reckon this is only for people who grow a moustache starting, lets say, today?

@roelandp We will open up the doors for Diggnation for the people who do not attend the conference and wear a mustache, but as space is very limited and we’re still in talks with the fire department we’ll come with an official statement on this later on.
