After almost a year of rehearsing new songs, and making other songs even better, we are ready to perform for you again.
We will be playing in Rock café Mukkes, which is somewhat small, but very cosy. Last weeks we have been rehearsing our setlist for this gig and we got some great songs to play for you.
We’re really looking forward to seeing you again and delivering you the metal you love.
C Ya!
Be prepared for some extra serious low frequency attacks at Damaged Justice gigs from now on, “Blackened” – Flip’s new bass has arrived!
After a 26 month wait (incl first design stages) my new baby arrived at Edwin van Huik’s http://www.connectionbult.com/bass/instruments.html {Bass Connection}, shortly followed by me (Flip) to pick her up 
The Bass is based on Jason Newsted’s ‘88/’89 Alembic Elan 5 as used on the Damaged Justice (sounds familiar?) tour to support Metallica’s “…and Justice for all” album.
The original bass was later upgraded with Series II electronics (for “teknikal” info on Alembic electronics see: www.alembic.com) and he used it until he stopped using Alembics onstage in ’94.
I was planning for an exact replica, but decided to make it a more personal bass.
I upgraded the Maple neck laminates to Flamed Maple lams, take a look at the pictures (see link below) and you know why… It looks stunning!
It has a wider neck profile as the original, neck profile is the same as Jason’s Alembic Europa 5 string basses.
Since this is getting awfully technical, I suggest you go to my site to see all features on this monster.
Be warned, for this bass will be seen/heard/felt at upcoming gigs.

Greetings!
Flip (aka: FC, aka: very loud low frequency supplier for Damaged Justice)
Very nice show, people got really energetic during Enter Sandman and Seek ‘n Destroy.
We handed out those free promo cd’s…, and people were going mad for ‘em!
I hope everyone was happy getting one..
We had a great time anyway, check the pictures:
Look us op in Vroomshoop tomorrow.
We will be hitting ‘Het Front’ up for a kickass gig.
We will be bringing some new gear to the gig, some new guitars especially.
And of course we’ll hand out those free promo cd’s you all love so much.
Here’s some pictures of the free promo CD. You can be the owner of one, just by visiting one of our gigs. We will hand out about 25 cd’s every gig for free, so make sure you stay ’til the end, and be somewhere in the front row. It has five tracks, two studio-, three live-tracks, in beautiful quality!
