The life I love is making music with my friends... |
Addison Oktoberfest. Dallas, TX, USA. |
This atmosphere is hard to capture with a camera or to describe with words. I'm grateful for thousands of amazing moments I was allowed to experience. |
I have been fortunate to collect experiences not only at live performances but also in sound studios, which is always a particular highlight for a (very) semi-professional musician like myself. |
Performing with a view on this majestic scenery in South-Tirol, Italy was an uplifting feeling for a lowlander like me. |
Music again... This time not as a musician, but hanging out with them ;-). |

Performing Austrian music, as a German musician with rastafarians in original German leather pants (Lederhosen) during an Oktoberfest party in Texas... There's nothing left to say (at all). |
