About Me


Hello!
I am Rudy.
I was born in a small village on July 2nd of 1981, somewhere north. A village where I was raised under safe, warm and loving conditions. Round the age of ten I discovered the six string by watching my sister play songs from bands like The Cure, U2, R.E.M, Bruce Springsteen and others. Two weeks after I picked up that guitar myself I outplayed my sister and probably from that point on I wanted to be a musician. A few years after that I got into hardcore/punk music. There was one small recordstore in Leeuwarden that selled hardcore records like Rykers, Backfire, Integrity and loads more. After listening, I started experience hardcore/punk shows and later (and still at this point)I began setting up hardcore/punkshows. But I kinda miss "the old" days.
In 1997 I started to play in my first rock/metal band called Facetone. At that time I liked the idea of this being the only band playing in and dominate the world one day. Only 4 years later that idea went up in flames when I had 3 bands and my first band just split up.
With music i've met alot of people through out the years, drove alot of miles, been drunk in public with lots of cool people, played alot of cool big or small intense and energetic shows, slept/snore in heavenly places and slept on the other hand of it... Both ways I love it... (not at the moment itself) but there is no feeling than the tourfeeling!
Nowadays I play guitar in Kensington Arms
and with The Forrester Soundtrack I sing and play songs acoustic.
When that doesnt take my time, I drive tourvans for bands on tour or a single show.
I love my friends because they do friendsstuff.
I love my family cause I will never find a home that is warmer than theirs.
The laughing, drinking, rehearsing, driving and arguing makes me love my bandmates.
The road makes me feel at home...
...and sometimes, I love life.
