The Dutch description (or announcement) of this lecture can be read at an archived version of the Antwerp Jazz Club's programming page.

Members or visitors can be seen reading the booklet which was prepared about the lecture and handed out for free (a custom of the jazz club).

Guy Van Looy (the presentor of the night's lecture) is sitting at the light and music controls. Lights might be occasionally dimmed during a presentation. Behind him, one can notice a white presentation board (to be used with a projector) which can here be seen rolled up (I was told that Guy Van Looy doesn't use DVD-material while presenting, as was indeed the case that Tuesday).

He sits behind a wooden foldable screen which was re-folded at the end of the presentation. The screen holds a sculpture which resembles the jazz club's logo. For an detail-picture of the mentioned foldable wooden screen (and the attached sculpture, partly visible here), cf. another picture of the same date.

Just above the screen, a fine metal holder is placed, on which the speaker placed a physical music record (from which he had taken the music previously) of the song being played, for viewing by the audience.

Above him, at the top of the wall, posters hang which were once used to advertise jazz concerts in Antwerp organized by the Antwerp Jazz Club (some of those posters can be consulted via the website of the jazz club).

In the left-hand corner of the room (visible on the left-hand side of this picture), jazz magazines (and a CD/DVD-collection) are displayed which are freely consultable by the public.

The drinks which are seen, can be ordered (optionally) during the presentation by checking marks on an ordering paper that gets passed around. Members of the Antwerp Jazz Club will then order the drinks at the ground floor of the clubhouse (a bar) and distribute them during the presentation.

About halfway through the presentation, Marc Vanistendael would receive some time to talk about the subjects of the lecture, in relation to the history of the AJC (a custom of the jazz club). In this case (a few minutes), he announced his findings as he previously went to the archives to see which of the mentioned people once played in Antwerp on the request of the jazz club. There is a tendency to appreciate old jazz musicians rather than new ones (after the 1960s or so), in the club; as also became clear from Marc Vanistendael's explanation.

Freely available was a ten-page booklet of this lecture, which showed the title and exact artists (with mentioned instruments), as well as the record label of the used record, and its record number; but did not include the speaker's lengthy comments. The first two pages of the booklet consisted of a short history, as well as another story (about a "stolen" blues song). The booklet showed thirty-one separate songs (although some of those songs were identical, though different performances), including some pictures of the mentioned artists; it also announced some upcoming lectures. In some case, songs were not played entirely.
