About Me

I used to book shows at AK 47 in DÃ¼sseldorf but after some stupid incident involving even more stupid people i can't book shows there anymore. this has nothing to do with the people running the club. they are still awesome people and i would like to thank them for everything they've done.

Actually i wanted to continue booking shows the way i did at AK 47 but i had to realize that next to the band i'm in and the label & distribution i'm involved with there's not enough time left to book shows as often as i did.

Right now i'm working on something to book shows once in a while but mainly for european bands. to be more specific bands that i know and like. of course you can send me your requests and maybe i will be working on a show that i might be able to add you to but most likely i won't be able to help you out.

IF YOU WANT TO BE KEPT UPDATED ON THE ODD SHOW I'M GOING TO BOOK, THEY WILL BE ANNOUNCED THROUGH SANDBLASTER RECORDS

My Interests

"Some of these chicks have sex-appeal but their souls all come up empty." WORD!
check the shit - AK 47

I'd like to meet:

Hardcore, Punk - bands, clubs to do shows at.
also i would like to collect as many profiles in my top list as possible that do book shows so there can be like one profile that has all the info on shows in our area and who to contact when planing a tour or anything like that. so help me out on that. international database for europe would be nice too so i already put everyone i'm already friends with and who does book shows in my top list. get in touch if you don't see your profile.
