RECORDINGS READY - FOUND BASS PLAYER BAS BACH
Just recorded 3 songs! So we will send them to Mad Butcher records soon when dr Snol is finished with mixing and mastering.

We found a new bass player!! Bas Bach (picture) is joining us!
And we will come to Germany again later this year. One gig is in BERLIN at 11 sept, and the other will be in AACHEN in december. See you soon!

We went to Berlin, some of us came directly from San Francisco and went straight from the airport to Berlin, so we were a bit tired, but we had a great laugh, a bit strange night it was. Aachen in december will be postponed, it had someting to do with a double booking, but we will play there next year!

There's an action called Pop voor Nop, we play for free because the government is cutting subsidies for bands, so there is a national action, everybody can go and see bands in the country for free!
