A Warm Goodbye

Jan 25 2010 - posted by willem

This weekend we played Yvo’s goodbye show. It was heartwarming to see so many people coming out. There was quite a line outside of de Onderbroek before the doors opened. Crazy! First of all we want to apologize to the people that could not get in because the show was sold out when they arrived. [...]

Happy New Year!

Jan 20 2010 - posted by willem

Maybe a little late as we are in the third week of the new year already, but the year started off pretty weird with our name popping up in the Buma press release. Ah well.
The past is written: 2009 has been a turbulent but all in all good year for us. We have played awesome [...]

Yvo pulls the plug

Oct 19 2009 - posted by willem

The times they are a-changing in the Dutch punk rock scene. After the break up of befriended bands like Smash the Statues, 1000 Miles Ahead and Progress Antillectual couldn’t fall behind. For some it might be a surprise, others might have seen it coming since Pieter (Omission, Rush n Attack) replaced Yvo on the past [...]

Sleeping beauty

When Yvo and I (Willem) were young(er) we used to watch every touring band that visited Holland in a place called Doornroosje (sleeping beauty) in Nijmegen. A couple of bands that we saw there when they were still pretty unknown: Ten Foot Pole, Pulley, New Bomb Turks, No Fun At All, Lagwagon, Blink 182, Good [...]

About the show-section…

Hi there! We're about to go on tour, it's less than a week away. We're excited! Somehow the show-section isn't working (don't look at me, I'm a technofoob!). But if you want to know where we're playing, please check our myspace, that's always updated. Hope to see you soon! Love. Rage. Always. [...]

The WEF is waiting…

Jan 11 2009 - posted by yvo

My dearest diary, I just read that the US military (the US Navy's Military Sealift Command to be precise) is sending 989 containers of ammunition to Israël. I guess that's not for shooting clay pigeons… ugh… On a happier note: we're going on tour in a few weeks. And we're playing in Davos [...]

Best night ever, books and personal stuff

On August 5 we played with Propagandhi in Belgium and I’m still creaming my pants when I’m thinking back on that show…  thanks to Bram and everyone of Heartbreak Tunes for taking good care of us. Thanks to all our friends and familiar faces who were at the show. Thanks to Propagandhi for being who [...]

With pain in our hearts …

May 28 2008 - posted by willem

… and that's actually pretty literally. Because the worst thing we can do as a band is happening; we have to cancel a part of our upcoming tour. We are extremely sorry and appreciate all help from the people that worked to get this thing rolling. But sometimes things [...]
