But what actually makes my life worth living it, is the time I spend on doing the things I like!!
.... So let me talk about SOME of the things that make my life liveable ...
Basically that is music.
A lot of things which come along with music keep me busy most of my freetime. As there is going to concerts, open-air festivals and clubs and my job as a lighting designer for the german electro band DIGITAL FACTOR, for Zombie Joe, a very interesting young german band and - sometimes - for Letzte Instanz, which are, in my mind, the best german folk-metal band.
I never get tired to talk and discuss about music (but of course music isn´t my only topic ;-)).
The following pictures give you a few visuals of some of the bands i´m into -- but these are just the bands i had my own pictures of.
(notice: except the NIN-pix, all the pictures here are MINE !!!)
This man was, is and will [always] be my #1 musician - his music makes me happy when i´m sad and it makes me sad or even happier, when i´m happy. No matter what ... I LOVE TRENT REZNOR FOR THE MUSIC HE 'GIVES ME'!!
I recently started my own little NIN site. Check it at www.2feetbelow.de
These are impressions of my last DEPECHE MODE concert (October ´98). Dave was, i think, my first crush, when i was about 11 or 12. And he is still adorable, a great singer and a feast for the eyes onstage. The man who´s responsible for DMs great music and lyrix, is Martin.
Another band i really like is, of course, MARILYN MANSON. I sometimes have probs with Mr. Mansons recent attitude and i don´t like the new album as much as the ones before (the ones, which had Trent as producer *hint hint*) - but still ... these guys rock. - Here is my lil Manson-site ... you really should check the live pix. They are worth it, i think !!!!!
One band i used to love a hell of a lot is FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY. But since Rhys Fulber left the band, the music kinda sucks ((UPDATE: At this point i HAVE to add, that their latest release 'IMPLODE' is fuckin great !! -- FLA are back !!!)). But i still love all their older stuff. In 1996 i had the luck to meet them at a big OpenAir i was working at. This is the view from the 'With Full Force III'- mainstage into the crowd, when FLA were performing. See Bill Leeb & Rhys Fulber talking backstage. And a pic of Rhys, watching the MINISTRY gig.
Well, talking of MINISTRY ... here they are onstage, at the 1996 'With Full Force' OpenAir.
Getting little more gothic - here´s another band i like: LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT. See a pic of their performance at the 'ZILLO' OpenAir in 1998.
And let´s take a lil peek into the Black-Metal scene. There are two bands i like: CRADLE OF FILTH and DIMMU BORGIR. I met CoF at the 1998 'With Full Force' and learned, that they are really sweet guys and that Dani Filth is a cutie-pie without all the make-up *LOL*. Too bad i didn´t have my camera with me - uh :*-(. But here is a pic of their gig in December ´98.
well - there are tons of bands which i could add here, but i think i´m too lazy ...
ya might wanna take a peek at my music-collection-list - it gives ya a good idea of the kinds of music i´m into
