That's right dear people, after more than 10 rocking years, the Dorktones called it quits. The fab three, Rotterdam's own dynamic beatcombo, had their dissolution meeting today, Friday 13th of April 2012.

Realizing that this is a sad day for all, the Dorks sincerely would like to thank you, the true beat connoisseurs, for all your support and encouragements throughout the years.

It has been a fun ride. So long.

The fantastic Groninger garage-surf band The Monroes are throwing a CD-release party and will be playing at the Exit in Rotterdam on Saturday October 10th. The Dorktones are asked to warm the crowd that very night.

Since the theme of the evening is CD-release and the Dorks are working around the clock to get the brand new "POP Go The Dorktones" out, we thought we'd shoehorn our own little CD-pre-release into the party.

So please come on over to the Exit on the 10th and party with the Dorks, Monroes and the Wild Wild Wild DJ's. Party starts at 21:00. Entrance is only �5,-.

Looking forward to seeing you there.
