About Me
Well I 'm acctually a quite serius guy despite the introduction................................................
............................................................
..........................EVERY BODY: The first girl on my page, (Pachi), is my sweet, funny and slightly crazy sister! ............................................................
...................................................A brief history of Mike;
............................................................
.................Originaly from Gothenburg on the West Coast of Sweden I spent a large chunk of my childhood in Väne-Ryr a village with 450 people, (apparantly 495 these days and yes I know that one carier on the tube probably hold more people during rush hours, does this not make you want to live there) ............................................................
.............. Had a quite interesting life, fresh from college in 1993 I embarked up on a career making techno parties, quite small to begin with, but as the years went by, the parties grove to respectable size. In 1996 I got the opportunity to I opened Packhuset in Gothenburg. This club was 1000 sqm with 8 meters to the ceiling and frequently saw up to 1000 guests, dancing to 10am, yes it was very sweaty! During my years as a party producer and club owner, several now famous musicians, DJ at my events. I also did a few outdoor/indoor parties with Max, (“a MySpace friendâ€) it was a crazy/fun/lost period, to say at least. It was a great period of my life, great friends, amazing parties and some trips, including driving to Croatia in a German Toyota that did not have a key, so we used a screwdriver, the customs office in Austria were not impressed. It may have something to-do with the fact that the car was not insured and my passport had pages missing. You always need ID when you goto clubs in Sweden, so what better use of your passport then to write peoples numbers

...............Al good things has to end though, apparently. The “lovely†Swedish authorities, which deemed the location not to be appropriate for large young crowds, closed it down. It’s notable that they currently house a large state run casino at the location
............................................................
............................................................
.....................Following this I decided to do something really stupid, yes those who knows me will smile, as I am about to tell the story when I was part of buying 2 wood fishing boats from 1928 and 1946. Will tell this story later in the week!
............................................................
............................................................
....................Cant be bothered right now, it ended with that one of the boats sank outside Denmark, the second went through a battle that included two fires, going on ground and the final nail in the coffin, a total leakage outside the coast of Holland… a lot of fun things has happened over the years, however I will just give you guys who are interested, (cant imagine who this would be though), the basic story to begin with, followed by more fun details!
............................................................
............................................................
.....................I finally had enough of the Sweden and came to London in 1998, ( a bit of a culture shock to say at least), and started to work as a manager and licensee for Club Collosseum in Vaxual, this was at the time the biggest Garage club, with events such as Twice as nice, and Exposure amongst others. It was hard work, great fun, well most of the time, did not enjoy explaining to the Police why “people are being killed in my club†well, that was the Underground garage scene for you
............................................................
............................................................
................2000 was an interesting year, started dating a very sweet Turkish girl in May and joined a publishing house in July. Me and my GF stayed together for 4.5 years, we had a great time together, traveled all over the world, got massages everywhere, did some adventures stuff and eat a lot of great food! The job eventually took me to the position as Magazine Manager. It was great opportunity, I was in charge over the US department, which meant I went there during at least 50 occasions, not to mention South America, Europe, and Far East Asia
............................................................
............................................................
...................Fall 2004, Met a really cool girl from NY during one of my trips, we had 6 stupidly crazy months together, the commute was not equally fun. Started a company in 2005, this was a very expensive experience
............................................................
............................................................
.........OKAY, so where am I at the moment?!? ............................................................
.................................................Doing an MBA and working on a new project, (currently in Beta stage), and life is looking pretty peachy, or as some people would say, "there is light in the end of the tunnel" then again, , Lola once responded to this question with a very true answer: "well, lets hope that its not the train...."
