It's Only Rockabilly..... but I LOVE IT !!

About Me

Well, hard to tell - should I leave this blank - or write a book in here ? ok, some details, I might edit this soon and add info............ I live in south-west Germany, travel a lot in Europe and the USA, mainly to Rock'n'Roll Weekenders and festivals and I am the owner of a little company which deals with the music I love: "Rockabilly". Many things about me have to do with this music, i.e. - how do I run a record label and produce Vinyl-LPs and CDs - how do I distribute them - how do I get a printed music-magazine together and distribute it - did I mention a shop and online shop ? ..... not to start getting boring, it's many things like this, organising, trading, networking and realizing new ideas... eats up a lot of time... so here I am...
