The Kids in Seattle. (All Cat Rose photos)

Yes, this is rock n' roll (!) the way it should be hammered out on a Friday evening at the Clock-Out Lounge in Seattle.

Led by Belgium's The Kids (class of '76), the punk n' roll extravaganza on Dec. 8 also featured solid rippers Tommy & The Commies from Canada and Clean Lines from our own Emerald City.

On The Kids front, Ludo Mariman (guitar, vocals) has plugged away with the band from the start and Luc van de Poel (guitar) entered the fray in '78. In 2012, Ief Vanlommel joined on bass and Tim Jult wedged himself behind the drum kit.

What a fuckin' brilliant night it was! The band and crowd rocked and rolled, fists in the air, voices raised in full during The Kids' raucous set. We're already awaiting their return to our city of supreme rockness.

Here's a plethora of Cat Rose photos from the gig:
