The LIMITED EDITION of the SKITKIDS - “Besöket Vid Krubban” LP is finally ready.Heavy white vinyl with crazy screenprint Cover layoutet by Kashka by using original artwork from Crash Mange and adding crazy good looking shit and all screenprinted (4-colors) on silver cardboard by the screenprint maestro Olli!!!! Amazing, so get a copy. SKIKIDS will also play some shows this summer, i will post the dates when i finally get them. Aside from all this i am still way behind with everything and my motivation just doesn’t come back. But a lot of plans i am working on so hopefully all better, bigger, faster, higher, louder, more stupid and less stress for me soon.
Disfear weekend aka. cruising Sweden
I was with Disfear, PrinciplesOfExistence and RottenSound on the road in Sweden last weekend. Was a good relief having this break and like always with this great people it felt so good and gave me back some motivation. Also meeting some good friends in Stockholm, Malmö and Gothenborg was great, special thanks to Christina+Jakob for showing up!!! Now back home and trying to get a lot of shit straight, still not my best time at the moment but i see a light in all the darkness. Working my way up… forward… forward…
Not the best times
Yeah not the best times i have at the moment concerning the label and punk stuff. Money doesn’t come back fast enough so the Burial/Crude/Nightmare is still on hold. Thanks to my pressing agent Bieber that he has so much patience with me… My office computer crashes about two times a day, my bookkeeping programm just died, i have trouble with my van insurance and so on… if it wouldn’t be for the bands/my friends i would just quit right now. Well, i won’t but i’ll take a break to get a new computer, get my finances organized and hopefully somehow get the datas of my bookkeeping programm back. So be patient and stay tuned.

The show was a blast. It was an overwhelming emotional moment to see them again and see Marc releasing all the pressure. So many thanks to all the people who helped, showed up… Special thanks to Loffi/Bianca, Hannover Crew, Michl/Flo/Jessy/Franz and Thom who came especially for that show. SEEIN RED + Gerard for coming and playing. And for sure thanks to Ville, Hekki and Jukka for flying in from Finland and spending so nice nights with me and making the trip to the fest. Lovely people like you make my world!!! Oh, not to forget the days before the fest in Bremen were really good and relaxing days too cause of my suomi friends, Ella and FirstClassSuicide cocktailbar!

Slow but sure…
Slow but sure my body and my head recover and the label and everyday life show progress. In mid-march I will have the SKITKIDS releases ready and my wholesalelist newsletter will be updated and be send. So stay tuned i am getting back on track to rock the house!!! Aside from that i had a great weekend with KYLESA and BARONESS. Was amazing live and the people just rule. They know where they come from and who are their friends and they are definitely my friends! Next week i’ll take a 10 days holiday to do rehab for my arm and relax and then full forward to armagedom! By the way check out DSB on their euro tour, definitely great entertainment!
Holidays, new year and the annual Suomi trip
I had nice mellow holidays with good friends instead of christmas terror, good friends visiting me for some days, fun bowling match and now relaxing days at my parents in south germany. Next week i’ll head of to Finland, the annual Suomi trip with Victims is on. So happy that I can make it. Will be a great feeling to be on the road again and meet so many good friends again. Afterwards i’ll stay some days in Stockholm and want to hang out with my lovely viking family there. And yeah HAPPY NEW YEAR for the ones who care. I look forward to this one, last one was to much up and downs and deaths. My Grandma died, Kawakami and Chelsea died - R.I.P. - We had the horrible accident but also I was in Japan and had great times with good friends. So this year we leave the death and crash shit out and it’s perfect.
Congratulations Jos and Gerard
Forgot to post this on the website. 7th December i was in Amersfoort to celebrate the wedding of Jos and Gerard. Was my first trip since the accident and it was great. I am super happy for these two lovely bears, great if so good people find each other. I had good fun at the party, watching the over 40 generation dancing and drinking, got pretty wasted drinking and talking with Robert, Noel and Ronald the whole evening. Orange juice and beer glasses piled up in our corner!
update health situtaion
Finally all are out of the hospital again. After a lot of bad luck, infection with a hospital virus (orsa), another surgery, slow healing wounds, Sarah finally made it out of the hospital again today. So happy for her. She still has to go to the hopspital every second day to get new bandage on her open wound on the shoulder but finally some progress for her. Marc can start to use his right foot again, only up to 20kg for now, but step by step he gets his leg back and learns to walk again. My concentration problem and headache finally calms down and bones are healing good. So we all improve and moving forward.
