Generate your own contact table!


Most about how I came about being a promoter/manager is to the left of this.
If you are interested my contact information is also located on this page, or simply email me here.
I am very business orientated when working. To the point and fair.
I beleive that to put on a great show onstage relies on more than just perfecting your playing. What happens to you offstage can reflect as well at times-try as you want to not let it.
I tend to be very the Band Mom type of manager. My bois need to not just play well but feel well, look well and be well to be at their best onstage-at least that is the way I see it!
Now to the more personal side of me:
I have a keen wit that can be sarcastic and subtle.
I am an artist, musician, lyricist.
I love animals and nature like mountains and oceans and prefer the cool or cold climates.
I love places like Seattle (hometown) Norway etc
Many that know me call me compasionate, caring, loyal with a fierceness, protective, eccentric, kind, a Soother,modest to a degree,empathetic to a fault, strong and confident.
My life is an open book to friends.
Those that do not know me might consider my confidence to be intimidating, too nice to be true so I must be hiding something, too serious or not serious enough.
I have 2 cats, two tattoos and LOVE my Scion xB!
I can speak several languages with various degrees of fluentness.

My Interests

Get some great Eyes merchandise from a great company!!

Here is how it all began for me:

I grew up surrounded by Calypso music and as soon as I could walk I began singing to my dad prerecorded songs I made earlier that day.
As I got older I began creating my own dances for my sister and her friends and, even though back then it was called 'ruining records', I was even scratching with my Disney albums!

Later I had a succession of two bands of my own-Dragon's Flyte and then a studio project with a friend of mine that we called Parthenogenesis. In both bands I cowrote several song lyrics and wrote many of my own lyrics (which I continue doing today even though I've no band. It is my life blood. To stop would be to die. I don't know how to stop!)

After those bands broke up-the former due to rifts, the latter due to other things in life-I got into gophering, roadying and photography for bands. I did roadie work for so long it also is so second nature that around bands I tend to fall into it naturally unless I think about what I am doing. LOL!
From there the natural evolvment seemed to be what I do today-promoting and managing bands. I DO do SOME booking but usually only with a band I already have a solid working relationship with.

Business wise I like to consider myself easy to get on with.

I am fair but tough.
I love to play but know when to take the kid gloves off and get down to business.
I will be 'one of the bois' as long as things run as they should. They do not, I get all business and tough (yet still fair) if I must.

If for any reason you wish to IM me you may do so-Yahoo it is PRGrrl7, MSN is [email protected]

This banner(above)for my other site was made for me by my friend Red Devil. Kiitoksia Paljon!!

My old banner. I still like it but not as pretty eh?

I'd like to meet:


I'd like to meet anyone that believes in any of my bois, anyone that follows the same dreams and pursuits.
Any fans of alternative metal that want a taste of 'new blood'.
Any similar, or even goth/punk or glam bands, musicians (or fans) (as I work with them too).
Artistic sorts but do not let the above stop you-friends are best when varied. Everyone is more the richer for them.
Anyone or anything I can promote and love promoting! I call them my bois or my grrls because I am not in it just for the money-I really care about my bois and grrls.
An artist of any sort-music included- is not at their best if they are not happy and I consider part of my job, part of my love of the job, to be there for them in any way needed-not just as agent but also as family.

On a personal level:
Friends. One can never have enough of them.

Aside from that -
Someone I can hold deep talks with but also be silly with from time to time,honest, loyal, communicative, a bit adventurous,be able to make me laugh and like traveling.
Someone that can be my equal.
Being a musician or at least understanding the music world is a plus for I will not deal with jealousies nor possesive controling.
I am not looking for anyone that claims to be these things and is not-I have had enough of those.
Mmmm..I seem really partial to the exotic,drummers, eccentric personalities,exotic looks and it seems my general 'type' are of Western European, Scandinavian or hispanic decent as I seem immeasurably drawn to those looks time and time again but I do not limit myself to that as the good of a person is in their personality first.
