It’s only a couple of days left before it’s the end of the year. Traditionally we “do” our last show of the year at De Onderbroek in Nijmegen at our very own Friends First Fest! This year will be a special edition spread over 2 days with bands from close to home and from a little further away. With new bands and bands that we grew up on. And with proper afterparties: DJ Bobby Brat (Th Dec 28) and live punk rock karaoke from Singalong Riot (Fr Dec 29)! Proceeds will go to causes worth supporting: Solidarity Not Silence, Animal Equality and AFA Nederland.

We hope to see you all at De Onderbroek on December 28 and 29 to celebrate good music and the end of the year.

Finally we get to announce the LOUD & RISING TOUR!

6 Dutch shows with the legends of Green Lizard and brand new punk rockers This Means War. Brought to you by Loud Noise!

Latin American tour. And we will go to South-West Europe in June and play a
bunch of festivals this summer.
