Welcome to the Wolf's hideout.

About Me

Favorite quote (by sting): If you love someone set them free. Open minded and free spirit. No rules. Lone wolf. Ruwe bolster/blanke pit. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. Be your own biggest fan. Be your own biggest critic. Blame it on the boogie. Howl at the moon. Live and let live. Kill or be killed. Life's a beach, make sure you can swim. If you want everything here and now... you're a spoiled little brat. It's not about getting the present, it's about waiting for it. If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

My Interests

I'm a musician. Technically maybe not a very good one but I try to put me heart in it. The best singers are the ones with poor voices. :-) Real people. Music and culture. Africa. Cuba. Belgium(I love it, I hate it. I'm proud of it, I'm ashamed for it). I'm a lazy SOB. Watching good movies. My collection of stamps... :-))

I'd like to meet:

Original people. I hate people that have to wear certain brands to fit in. Get some personality! Che Guevara (In the afterlife), Bob Dylan (What a poet!). Heleen Van Royen. Marlies Dekkers. Iggy Pop ...you!

Music:

Tubelight, Lobotomy!, The Clash, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, The Jimmy Castor bunch, Blur, CCR, Dr. Dré, Junkhouse, Triggerfinger, Sheryl Crow (specially the first one!), James Brown and his JB's, Dinosaur Jr., Death from above (discovered this thanks to my son!), Pixies, Red hot chili peppers, Johnny Cash, Steve Earl, Sex Pistols, Ramones, Grand Moff Tarkin (super Belgians!), Pink Floyd (One of these days), QOTSA, Lou Reed, Bowie, Josh White, The Raconteurs, Jack White... Not a lot of electronic music though. It misses the human feel. I like music to be raggedy and inperfect. I love Dylan bootlegs. Iggy Pop, The Wolfbanes, Gorillaz, too much to mention...

Movies:

Rumble fish, Casablanca, The African Queen, Lost Highway, Elephant, Bowling for Columbine, A clockwork orange ( and almost everything by Stanley Kubrick), Strange days, Blade runner, Ghost in the shell (1 and 2), Dracula, Blair witch (specially the first one), Traffic, Devil's backbone, The outsiders, Drugstore cowboy (I luuuuurv Kelly Lynch in that one!), South park, Napoleon Dynamite, The ring (original Japanese version), Sleepy hollow (Tim Burton!), Kids, Bully, Baron Munchausen, The big Lebowski, The wonderboys, Sin City, Fear and loathing in Las vegas, Hurly Burly, Ed Wood, Lost in translation, La guerre du fue, L'ours, Der untergang, Alien, Aliens, Broken flowers, The pope of Greenwich village, Team America, The Misfits (best Monroe film!), The wild one, On the waterfront, Forbidden planet,

Television:

Threw mine out four years ago and haven't missed it yet. It makes you miss out on real life and turns you in to a couch potatoe. The truth is out there!

Books:

De godin van de jacht (Heleen van Royen), Brusselmans... I'm ashamed to say I'm not such a reader though. (too little time)

Heroes:

Underdogs that stand up and do something.

There's not much use in keeping two blogs... I already have one on http://guyswinnen.telenetblog.be/ This one is in Flemish.
