Beeckestijn success!

Our show at Beeckestijn Pop 2009 was a big success. We enjoyed playing there a lot and together with the beautiful weather and great crowd it was a perfect day for a festival!

BTW; our t-shirts will be on sale via our Myspace soon!!

Shows, shows, shows!

This weekend will be an exciting one for us!!
We'll be playing the main stage of the Beeckestijn Festival (http://www.beeckestijnpop.nl) @ 16:20h amongst great acts including: De Kift, Drive Like Maria and De Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig. To put it in one word: STOKED! If you can please drop by and show us some support that would be great, the festival is free..
We are also playing a bit smaller but just as fun gig this Friday in JC Frats, Bergen, NL. Entrance is also free so feel free to free your mind at our gig that night.

The UK tour is finally coming along pretty well! We probably have all the dates filled, we're waiting on some confirmations... This is how it looks like now:
Thursday September 3rd: Hobgoblin, Brighton (w/The Arteries, The Cut Ups, Serf Combat)
Friday September 4th: TBC, Harrogate
Saturday September 5th: TBC, High Wycombe
Sunday September 6th: Fighting Cocks, Kinston (w/ Down and Outs)

Also we are happy to announce we're playing with The Flatliners (US, Fat Wreck) and Long Way Down in Winston, Amsterdam on Wednesday August 5th! (7 euros) This should be amazing!
The Arteries (UK) will be playing a show with us in Cafe Lokaal, Heemskerk on Tuesday September 15th. Our dear friends of Het Brein Dat Kwam Uit De Ruimte will also show us what they've got that night.

Well that's it for now! My head is spinning because of all the different dates, bands, costs, whatsoever... Catch you later!
