the dream of white tiger

About Me

First he dreamed a lot. Then he sharpened his imagination. Built aeroplanes and ships. Bought a guitar. Had a band with schoolmates. Bought another guitar or two. Loved jazz. Loved to ski. Bought few more guitars. Graduated in maths. Bought few more guitars and some equipment. Taught at high school. Loved the blues. Found good friends. Went to Cleveland. Tried to study jazz. Missed friends. Fell in love with Shina. Returned from Cleveland. Found some wrecked guitars and rescued them. Formed band Dlhe diely (Long Yards) with Shina. Started own record label (Slnko Records). Quit job finally. Discovered bow. Discovered Oud. Lost drummer. Lost second drummer. Fucked all drummers and started to program loops. Renamed the band to Longital. Got another guitar from Shina.... and finally came the dream of White Tiger telling him the secret.
