NSC 6
The country made it's debut in the 6th edition of the NSC in Bokia, IJselmonde was the lucky one to win the NF with Marco Borsato and the song Rood while Veranda's entry, Fall out Boy with Dance Dance was only a few votes behind them. Rotterdamus had to start in the Semi Final and after the show it turned out that Marco Borsato with his song Rood ended on the 12 spot and that if they had had 8 points less it would have been Alinta in the final. In the final however Marco's performance was one of his strongest ever and it meant a 10th place for Rotterdamus in the Final which means that Rotterdamus will start in the final next year.

NSC 7
After the 10th place of last year a place in the final has been earned, and now RTV wants to make sure to take advantage of that as they use the same format as last year. The 3 songs in the NF:


 * 1) Kuip at the Maas: Jet - Are You Gonna Be My Girl?
 * 2) Veranda: Safri Duo - All the People In The World
 * 3) IJselmonde: Less Than Jake - A Still Life Franchise

In the end Safri Duo was by far the most popular entry and they will represent Rotterdamus in Spila.

In the Final the had to perform as 9th and even though we got off to a slow start in the voting we soon rose and at a point we were evn 4th, near the end we started slipping but luckily our fall ended at the 10th place just as last year and so yet again Rotterdamus earned itself a ticket to next year's final where we want to repeat this constant success we have had until now.

NSC-ESC
This is the same as NSC but here you have to participate with NSC songs, Rollo & King were the first to represent Rotterdamus at this event and got a 13th place in Spila. For the 2nd edition RTV chose Wig Wam to represent them, this was for sure a risky entry but they were counting on the rockfans for points and it worked as they ended 7th in a strong field with 82 points.
