IN HIS OWN WORDS - "Born in Mercepolis to Russian antique dealers, got lost one summer holiday in the streets of Venice at the age of four while my parents were discussing furniture prices in a shop, became fluent in Italian while my parents spent the rest of their years awaiting a ransom call from the Muscovite mob that never came, blended seamlessly into the family that found me sleeping in their gondola at the age of six, made a living as an oarsman, laid a mean Pavarotti and Tom Jones imitation on the tourists, lost my licence for making them seasick when they didn't tip accordingly, got kicked out of the family when they surprised me in their gondola with their newly wed daughter at the age of fifteen, came across a brochure about Mercepolis at the age of nineteen, a bell rang, I went back there..."

"Claimed my heritage, turned my parents' house into a state-of-the-art recording studio, two years later I was hanging with the fast crowd of my home town Mercepolis and released my first album with the band "Popes Of Party", we made it into the charts overnight... from there on, hey, it has been showtime way past bedtime (and lots of quality time underneath the covers)."

"Heard about this cat called Bong who had a way with songs, was introduced to him by sax player Vanderbilt (sorry, Gus, I don't owe you any money for that anymore, so stop sending me your red district expense notes, mate) who than introduced both of us to director Glen Sutherborg. Glen hired us on his movie "Fatal Fanny and the Last Of The Great Crooner Pimps"... Bong and I started composing, Bang Lassi was about to burst into the daylight..."

RARE AMATEUR FOOTAGE - I recall the first thing Storm had on his mind as he moved back in his parents mansion, was party. The following clip was made during one of a long series of house warming parties. As Storm since his disappearance had become a complete stranger to his fellow Mercepolians, most of the people that participated where randomly picked countrymen and unaware tourists that happened to pass by. One of those country blokes plays the genius kid (in a close to sublime Chaplin manner), his elder brother is the alleged director, as Storm recalls him as "the tall guy with the camera". The parties took place over a period of 9 to 10 months, the time needed to get the heritage through. Finally the by now completely wrecked mansion of which you can catch glimpses here, could be renovated.
