THE KIDS were a band from Belgium who began in '76 playing early new wave/punk and lasted for 10 yrs, not to be confused with the HEAVY METAL KIDS who became the KIDS eventually, they were a completely different band from the u.k., they used to open for IGGY POP, PATTI SMITH and the RUNAWAYS too, see this link -
