FAQ´s

- Are you really born in 1984?

Yes, I am. There´s no reason why I shold hide my real age and make me younger or older.

- What kind of music do you like? Which are your favourite bands?

I like all kinds of music. My fav band still is Lacuna Coil.


- Where did you learn playing the drums? What where your infuences? Do you still exercise every day?

This question is hard to answer. I learned it by so many drummers I just watched and listened to. I had lessons by Willy Melzer at the Musikinstitut Erlangen where I learned a lot of important things about classical drumming. I can also approve Dan Zimmermann as drumteacher- he´s one of the best drummers I know. Another big influence for me was and
still is today my friend Sebastien Angrand. When I´m at home I try to get every day into my rehearsel room and exercise some hours.


- Do you play other instruments, too?

Yes I learned classical piano for about 10 years. For a drummer it´s important to play a melodical instrument, too.


- How can I book one of your bands?

Just visit the band´s homepage and search for "contact" or "booking". For Subway To Sally please visit the homepage of Extratours.


- Do you have a girlfriend?

Yes, I do.


- If I send you my mobilenumber within an email, will you write me a shortmessage or call me?

No, I usualy write shortmessages only to persons that i know well. It´s the same with phonecalls.
