The Kids (Belgian band)

The Kids are a Belgian punk rock band formed in 1976.

They broke up in 1985, but came back together in 1996 for the soundtrack recording of the Belgian film Dief (Thief). They have been together ever since and still play gigs around the world.

History

1976: Inspired by the upcoming punk wave, Ludo Mariman and the De Haes brothers formed The Kids. Their bass player, Danny De Haes, was only 12 at the time (and not allowed in at some of his own concerts...)

1977: The Kids sign their first record contract with Phonogram. They play support acts for Iggy Pop and Patti Smith.

1978: Their first album The Kids is recorded, and guitarist Luc van de Poel joins the band. They play at the famous Jazz Bilzen festival. Eight months later the second album Naughty Kids was released. Both records are now very legendary and important in punk history

1978 to 1984 The Kids play lots and lots of concerts, winning lots of Belgian poll's and record another 3 albums:

Living in the Century, The Black album (with their biggest Belgian hit : There will be no Next Time) and a Live album, recorded with the Rolling Stones mobile studio ..

The Kids (Norwegian band)

The Kids was a Norwegian band from Trondheim founded in 1979, not to be confused with the eponymous Belgian punk rock band. Their most familiar hit was Forelska i lærer'n (translated to "In love with the teacher"), in 1980. Norske jenter ("Norwegian girls") was another hit. The band released music in Sweden with Swedish language versions of the songs.

The Kids became known for their platinum blonde hair, and were the first in Norway to produce a music video. The video was aired by the program Zikk Zakk, the only rock music program on NRK. The Kids sold to platinum. After the band broke up, Dag Ingebrigtsen took part in the founding of TNT. Meanwhile Torstein Flakne founded Stage Dolls. In 1996 they had a reunion tour in Norway, and released the "Greatest Hits" on CD.
