Back from hospital
Hospital took way longer. 13 instead the expected 4 days. They were able to do way more than just to remove the metal. 2 muscles were stuck together and were separated, some bones were planed, metal was removed and more. On the long run this will help my arm to get better, never 100% but maybe 90%. But for now the surgery worked me over way harder than i thought and i am pretty weak, physical and mental. Feels like a big throw back but i know it will all go better just needs time. Business: The distribution/mailorder project punkdistro.de is up and running and they distribute and trade all my releases. I have no time and energy for direct business anymore, sorry. 3-way Split is out as you know, Disfear - Misanthropic Generation LP reissue is in the pressing plant. La Famila Fest is set… My new website is up but for now only a temporary version: lafamiliareleases.com

NIGHTMARE, BURIAL, CRUDE - Split 12inch DELAYED… shit!!!
My sample copy of the NIGHTMARE, BURIAL, CRUDE - Split 12inch arrived yesterday. The pressing plant MPO made two little mistakes i didn’t order and i don’t like so the complete pressing has to be done again. My pressing agent Bieber is on it and pushing them to see their mistakes and press again fast. Stay tuned.
No surgery, no Japan, no refund… and at least no stress
Back out of the hospital. Surgery was not done cause I got good news. Nerves are not destroyed and will probably heal themselves. Now I just have to wait and wait and wait… And do my rehab. Starts soon. Now that the surgery was lined up i canceled my flight and tried to get it refunded but the insurance doesn’t want to refund the flight cause the surgery was not done and my health problems after such an accident had to be expected… Hope i somehow solve it with them and get my money back. 1100,- EUR for nothing I can’t afford. Well at least i was able to pay my last debts at the pressing plant and now the NIGHTMARE/BURIAL/CRUDE can happen really soon. Last layout stuff seems to be fixed. Just a matter of weeks now. I updated the DATES section. GEWAPEND BETON had to cancel parts of their August tour cause the shows especially in the north just didn’t come together. The plan to combine mailorder/wholesale with 2 other labels/friends is in the works and might start in a month. Blabla, I take it easy nowadays and step back and had so great time at Lisas birthday and with Hannah and Marc that everything else does not get to close. I love my friends and hate stress.
Malakas, Family and Hospital
I’m back in the hospital. Hope to get my shoulder surgery on Friday so i’m out next week. Plans for combining the mailorder/wholesale with 2 other labels/friends are looking good. Graspop was ok, time with Disfear great. Meeting Jack and WBTD was great. Antimob and Bombenalarm in Hannover was a blast and a relief. Great to finally meet my fetah Boy Panos in real. The weekend at my parents with my good friend Lisa was great. Thanks Mum, Dad an Jürgen. Samurai exhibition in Speyer rules, sightseeing with my parents anyway. Ella is back home in Malmö, enjoy it but come back! BURIAL / NIGHTMARE / CRUDE 12inch testpress turned out brutal. Some layout stuff needs to be fixed and then the pressing starts. I added some more shows, tours, check it out.

Amazing, so get a copy. SKIKIDS will also play some shows this summer, i will post the dates when i finally get them. Aside from all this i am still way behind with everything and my motivation just doesn’t come back. But a lot of plans i am working on so hopefully all better, bigger, faster, higher, louder, more stupid and less stress for me soon.

GEWAPEND BETON record release show was THE blast
Saturday in Amsterdam was amazing. Great squat (baarmoeder) , 3 great bands (Bratpack, Gewapend Beton, Antidote), fucking great crowd (spike punks, hc/punks, hc kids from 12 - 49, amazing unity), great atmosphere and great records to celebrate. So the GEWAPEND BETON LP i release in cooperation with Jeschke (DirtyFaces) and Köppe (AttackRecords) is out now! Get a copy and get a great mix of pogo punk and hardcore. GB are the new kings of grachten hopping and dans op de deel!!! I had a lot of fun, thanks to the bands, the kids who set it up and everyone who showed up, drove me back and came along. You know who you are. And Henk you drank to much or not enough so Bocca lost, shame on you!!!
