Hi there.
And yes, were off with a new web page. Thank you for your patience and thank you Young for helping out with our new homepage.
This site is the official Under Byen site, meaning well write news ourselves, you can download some songs, see press photos, well read our guest book and so on.
However, if you want the full story, the strangest facts, all the live photos and a community talk with other people that like what were doing, the place to be is still Lars Dideriksens Under Byen page.
Dig in. Under Byen.
