Jean Paul De Boitselier: Oiljstneers zemmen en Jongens van de Veirkemert zijn carnavalsnummers van veertig jaar oud, maar klinken nu nog altijd even fris als toen. Terecht zijn beide nummers genomineerd in onze wedstrijd Azoei is ter mor ien. Jean-Paul De Boitselier was verantwoordelijk voor de schoein muziekskes. Zoon Ivan spreekt over zijn vader die in 1998 overleed.
Jean-Paul De Boitselier raakte met zijn volkse teksten de gevoelige snaar van de feestvierders; alleen daarom is het niet meer dan terecht dat Jean-Paul in onze zoektocht naar het beste carnavalsnummer met twee platen staat genoteerd. Zijn Oiljstneers zemmen en Jongens van de Veirkemert op de B-kant uit 1967, worden nog steeds gezongen. Andere carnavalskrakers van Jean-Paul zijn Raldegelda de Rozenbril , Kaka- Karnaval , Lozé-Lozo-Lozi-Lozano , Het Flotjeskonseir en Kom vanouved be moi . Zijn laatste plaat was Stroeimezieksken , intussen ook al een evergreen.
Jean Paul werd twee keer prins van Aalst. Dat gebeurde in 1967 en 1970. Alleen Kamiel Sergant deed beter met drie titels, maar Jean-Paul is wel recordhouder inzake het aantal deelnames aan prinsenverkiezingen. Jean-Paul snoof voor het eerst de carnavalsfeer op toen zijn vader Franky de keizerstitel aangeboden kreeg.
Zoon Ivan koestert het carnavalserfgoed van vader en grootvader. ,,Mijn vader haalde zijn inspiratie in de volkscafés'', vertelt Ivan. ,,Op bierkaartjes noteerde hij de eerste ideeën. Nadien trok hij zich voor een tijdje terug op het toilet. Op de WC schreef hij de beste teksten. Het zit in mijn buik , zei hij dan. Carnaval was mijn pa zijn leven.''
,,Op zijn begrafenis werd op zijn wens Mèn ienig Oilsjt van Odilon en zijn Oiljstneers zemmen gespeeld. Het was zijn ingetogen adieu aan een stad die hij in zijn hart droeg.'' Het zijn ook twee liedjes die Ivan nauw aan het hart liggen. Toch gaat zijn voorkeur bij de genomineerden naar Oilsjt viert carnaval van Kamiel Sergant.
Eerbetoon aan vader
Ivan probeerde de voetsporen van zijn vader te drukken. Als eerbetoon aan zijn carnavalistisch verleden kandideerde hij in 1991 en 2000, maar het mocht niet zijn. Een derde keer zit er voor Ivan niet in. Hij steunt nu in de achtergrond met woord en daad kandidaat-prinsen. ,,Dat is mijn bijdrage aan carnaval en een eerbetoon aan vader'', besluit hij.

Everywhere I look around
Love is in the air
Every sigh and every sound
And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes
In the whisper of the trees
Love is in the air
In the thunder of the sea
And I don't know if I'm just dreaming
Don't know if I feel sane
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when you call out my name
Love is in the air
Love is in the air
Love is in the air
In the rising of the sun
Love is in the air
When the day is nearly done
And I don't know if you're an illusion
Don't know if I see it true
But you're something that I must believe in
And you're there when I reach out for you
Love is in the air
Everywhere I look around
Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound
And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes
Love is in the air
Love is in the air
Love is in the air
Love is in the air
