30/12/2014 On 06/12 we played our last gig of 2014 in Den Deugniet in Kortrijk. We're not asked that much in Kortrijk although it's always fun playing there. Same thing in this pub: good audience, good bands (The Go-Hards, The Empty Bottles), good pub, so we played again a very decent gig there !
22/11/2014 On 10/11 we played the 25th Anniversary fest of the world famous Vort'n Vis in Ieper. This means they started in 1989 and guess what, we played there too in 1989, here's even a gig report of that show. In the mean time this was our 5th gig in de Vort'n Vis and this time we played in their temporary pub, small but crowded, that's the way we like it ! Our compliments to the organization and hopefully next year we can play again in the renewed old pub.
05/10/2014 In September we had another unforgettable edition of our own Rock@Schuiferskapelle, 14th edition already. Local bands Spitville and The Heavenly Kings attracted already soon in the evening a big audience which became only bigger during our own set. The tributebands Pure Kult and the German-based The Sweet-tributeband Fanny Adams were the toppers of the evening. As I'm a Sweet-fan for about 40 years already, this was for me personally a night never to forget, thanx Fanny Adams !
05/10/2014 In June we had this great gig in Kortrijk. For a strange reason it was only the 3rd time in our life we played in Kortrijk and it was a great evening ! Not only our gig in the Ziggy was a blast but afterwards we visited some more pubs and ended finally in peerburp, sorry beerpub, the Gainsbar next to the Ziggy where we spent some more hours. Great pub with a very sympathetic bartender !
05/10/2014 We experienced some problems updating the site, as Google suddenly defined our site as a reported attack site. It took months to fix everything, but here we are back again.
03/05/2014 After a break of 7 (seven !) weeks without rehearsals because of Keez' injured shoulder, we finally finally could rehearse again. Watch out now Keez.
19/04/2014 Record Store Day today and the release of "Flanders Fields: Punk-Lawaai vol. 1", a vinyl compilation on which figure 18 songs from the West-Flemish punkbands The Dirty Scums, Retired Punx, Empty Bottles, Two Russian Cowboys, Definitivos, Dead Convicts, Nahende Vernichtung and The Ignored. After the summer the album will also become available on cd, for which occasion an event will be organised in Roeselare with gigs of all the bands included.
25/03/2014 Yesterday we were invited for a preview of the documentary Bloody Bloody Belgium in which Roy Wallace (IRL) tells the story of the Belgian punkhistory. Good work and well done Roy, we hope it will become available on DVD as you can watch it now only online (payable).
12/03/2014 From today on Keez has to stay some days in hospital for an operation at his left shoulder, which means no rehearsals for a couple of weeks :-( . Anyway good luck Keez !
28/02/2014 Last Saturday we played for the 3th time in JH De Doze in Veurne, and just like the two previous times, it was great fun playing there.  We played a couple of new songs, of which one has to be rehearsed a little bit more :-), but  generally we were very satisfied with the good concert. And by the way, these Fuckshovels from the UK were very nice lads !
11/01/2014 The year 2014 started well. Together with over 120 other songs we were nominated with our 'Rit'n-song for De Gouden Gerrit, a contest for the best Flemish sung ever. We finally ended up 16th !
