this is what i found on wikipedia, haha:
Music of the Netherlands - Punk
"Tedje en de Flikkers, a group of homosexuals ("flikkers" is Dutch for "faggots") from Nijmegen, was one of the most infamous punk formation of the Netherlands. They sprang from the left wing and gay movements that thrived in Nijmegen during the 70's and 80's. Their provocative performances (politically more than musically) often literally resulted in orgies of sex, drugs and noise. They existed only for three years (1977-1980)."

The Netherlands has some sweet Oi!!! bands with more of a hardcore influence. Banner of Thugs were pretty sweet. Razorblade and Close Combat were sweet too. Probably not up your alley, but I'm offering up about all I know about wood shoe jew music.


I would really appreciate a decent Feyenoord Rotterdam scarf (fuck Ajax!). If you see one, I'd gladly pay you for the scarf and your troubles.

Roy Makaay is still a stud. I saw him net 3 against Schalke 04 when he played for Bayern at the Olympic Stadium.

eBay has some good, and cheap, Feyenoord scarfs.

Well I hope you're not looking for a legalized psilocybin journey into the depths of your mind:

Rather sad news if you ask me.

i'm certain that finding those would be pretty easy still. They're also closing like 50 coffee shops, leaving only 300 places to get budz!

I once did some training with the Royal Netherlands Marine Corps. Good dudes. When they're stationed back in the NL, they spend their free time doing coke and beating up immigrants. When they're in the Caribbean all they do with their free time is smoke dope and bang vacationing Dutch girls. I kind of want to join.

I'm sure that's true, but I still think it's a step in the wrong direction. For their country, and for humanity in general. Call me crazy.

You can live, but you should just go back to listening to punk rock with guitar solos from the 90s.
