About Me


..
Created by Crazyprofile.com

I'm an artist. Art is the only thing I'm good at. I draw, paint, make music, write poems and question myself constantly about the meaning of life.

BEFORE I START TALKING ABOUT MYSELF : NEVER FORGET THIS : HATE, REVENGE and WARS HAVE NEVER SOLVED ANY PROBLEM IN HISTORY OF MANKIND. AND FOR THOSE WHO REALLY WANNA HATE, HATE ACTS AND FACTS, NEVER HATE PEOPLE! COZ' WE'RE ALL EQUAL! AND BEFORE YOU START TO JUDGE SOMEONE, TOY GOTTA WALK IN THEIR SHOES TO UNDERSTAND WHY THEY ARE WHO THEY ARE!

No wonder my two sons (19 and 23 years old) are both artists (my profile picture is a drawing made by my oldest son and for those of you who are into drum 'n base, check out www.myspace.com/intrudermc that's my other son).

I compose and present jazz radioprograms on two different radiostations in Brussels ("Jazz Station" and "Jazz My Azz" both also on My Space) and review jazz cd's and concerts in some magazines, such as JazzHot (F), Jazzmozaiek (B) and jazzreview.com (US).

In 2002, I wrote a book about belgian jazz in which 75 jazzmusicians (amongst which Toots Thielemans, Philip Catherine and Bert Joris) explain their approach to jazz, their instrument, improvisation, music and life in general. The book is called "The Finest in Belgian Jazz" and there are still some copies available www.dewerf.be To be honest, I'm just a messenger, that's all.

And if you really want to know everything about jazz in Belgium, just visit www.jazzinbelgium.com

Love to y'all, folks!

And take care of our planet before it's too late... well, ehrr, you'd better start right now...
