The Rock 2008
Phew... Another amazing night has passed. We will post pictures later!
One thing that struck me, during the concert. What would happen to the danish IT industry if a small disaster [happened] and all nerds at The Rock died... Could Denmark survive such a loss?
Should there be rules, restricting the number of nerds being together in a curtain vicinity?... Just a bit concerned for our small country. All I wanted to say was "Great concert"

Videos from The Rock 2008
At the rock this year we had Claus Ronald Jensen on video camera (he has photographed us a couple of times too at The Rock, but is mostly known for his boudoir photos (ok, we mean babes and lots of them!)). This has resulted in a handfull o'clips uploaded to YouTube. You can see them here together with a few clips from Mads Skov too. Go crazy!

The Rock 2008
On Saturday April 19th 2008 (a Saturday so that people from abroad can attend too) we will
headline a concert in Copenhagen's coolest rock venue The Rock located in central Copenhagen.
Spread the word, gather your friends, girlfriends, collegues, old demo group members, and come join us for a rocking trip down memory lane. We expect to see YOU there! After the concert the place will be turned into a night club so you can party through the night with us (oh yes, we'll be there!) ROC=K ON!
Go here to see pictures and videos from our last concert there.
Tickets
Tickets are now available! Buy them from BilletLugen.dk (search for "PRESS PLAY ON TAPE" to find the event).
Important note:The last time we played in Copenhagen the doors were closed since the venue got filled up. So if you really want to go plan ahead, buy tickets sooner than later, and get your friends to do the same -- otherwise you might miss it We do not make money on the amounts of tickets sold, we just want to have a fun night with as many people as possible.
Support band
The Swedish NES band Powerplay from Stockholm is going to support us at The Rock on April 19th.
If you are from abroad or far away parts of Denmark, check out Danhostel for accommodation.
Food at the venue
It seems that The Rock is opening their restaurant, "The Anarchist", on April 19th. While the music is playing you can enjoy a meal in the VIP lounge. They serve burgers, nachos, home made french fries, and... a Commodore sandwich (at 64 dkr) - maybe a coincidence? We think not! Anyhoo, you can get food at The Rock now.
Poster for The Rock concert
Now you can get your own copy of our poster for the upcoming concert on The Rock. It pretty big, around 3000x4000 pixels ~1 MB. That should be large enough to cover your fridge, for instance Get it here.
