In a couple of hours I’m going to Dortmund, Germany for the weekend,  going to perform there with my barbershop choir zero8 as guest artists at the 2010 BinG convention, where the World Champion quartet OC Times (my mates) will sing too, as well as the Collegiate World Champion quartet Ringmasters (my b*tchiz). Hopefully I’ll [...]

It’s been a hectic few days with choir rehearsals, other music stuff, social activities and most important – the first [...]

Hellu again!
So I’m stuck at home with this mean cold, thus not really bothering with doing anything much but editing and uploading photos. Which is a good thing. The pile of unedited photos is just growing. I read somewhere that your ‘first ten thousand photographs are your worst’ (Henri Cartier-Bresson) and over the two years [...]

Celebrating the first post of the new decade, I have to promote some of my recent silliness – yes, I have launched a YouTube channel. Check it out it’s totally random. I’ve had a splendid holiday, New Year’s Eve as wild as Christmas’ was calm. Here are some random unrelated shots of what I was [...]

What’s up oh Children of September?
School’s moving on with a steady pace, but all fun and no work makes Paul a dull boy – thus I’ve got three gigs coming up:
