BRIGANDAGE [UK] + RUBBER GUN [NL] in de OB

De Onderbroek, Friday, May 29 at 08:00 PM GMT+2

BRIGANDAGE [UK] + RUBBER GUN [NL]

On May 29, two long-running old-school punk bands come together in Nijmegen for a rare live show at De Onderbroek.

Brigandage started in the early ’80s, inspired by the original 1976 punk scene. Within months they were on the cover of NME, recording a Peel Session, and playing shows with bands like Sex Gang Children. After years underground, the band returned for Rebellion Festival 2024 and are now back touring Europe with a new album, Half Moon Rising.

Joining them are Rubber Gun — formed over 40 years ago in Zutphen’s punk/squat scene, known for their cult following in Germany and their album Grease Up!. After decades apart, they’re back on stage again alongside old friends Brigandage.

Expect a night of raw punk, post-punk and underground classics.
