Besides all of the above, I also have another hobby I forgot to include in the bio: Through a local rock club I use to work as stage crew, drum tech.,
stage manager etc. together with my friends from time to time in various situations. I get to meet many interresting people, and sometimes we get to
meet the stars personally. For instance I once met Henry Rollins and spoke with him for quite some time, and have been walking around many others too;
Nick Cave, Ben Harper, you name it. It's our general policy to keep our distance, after all back stage is part of their private spheres, but
sometimes we are lucky and can widen our horizons by meeting some of the stars, their friends and crews etc. and perhaps drink a couple of beers and
BBQ or something back stage. And sometimes they even stay for the dayly tapto (if they dare that is, for we are quite good at it and do it the viking
way mostly). During these jobs we work our a55es off to make everyone happy, and words are we are some of the best at it, but we're growing old and
I'm not sure it's healthy in the long term; bad food, little sleep, top of the peak stress level, seas of alcohol, women with all kinds of deseases,
noise levels that hurt physically sometimes, well, it
isn't healthy... But God knows it's fun!!!
Blessings,

Edit: I forgot to post links to our pages (sleaze inc. is our crew, the other page is in Norwegian, but please browse through it to see the artwork.
Very lo tech, but neat I think). These two sites were the first sites I made. They are not finished, and probably never will be, but it was fun making
them. Well here is the link:
