(2003 – now)

Meaning Bandname: Niek always wanted a band with the name Fuckups.

Bio: Niek and John start the band, joined by Tup and quickly followed by bassplayer Marjan and singers Ricky and Petra. Rehearsals are every tuesday in the Viadukt. Obviously stealing riffs from others but never in an ugly way. Favorite places to play are O.R.K.Z. and Crowbar in Groningen. In 2005 Menno replaces both singers and the first album gets released at the end of 2006 and produced by Edwin Pot in the Viadukt. Oomph will be released as cybersingle on Platex Records and is also on the Groverpop CD. In 2009 Joris replaces John on guitar although he often plays as a replacement. In 2011 the Stuff 10” is released on Platex Records and presented in Het Viadukt. The guitarplayers interchange and Menno’s guitar as well. Obed Brinkman often joins on trumpet.
