4. If someone told you tomorrow that you can't be involved in music anymore,
what do you see yourself doing in 5 years from now?
- Jörg: Beerdrinking in front of TV and watching
football :-), I don´t know, I can´t think that pessimistic
and I can´t look in the future either!
5. Myself as a privat person in a few sentences?
-
Jörg: Judging about yourself always is dangerous!
Unpatienced, wild, idiot, immoderate, excessive, cool, hyper, mellow,
drunk, sleepy,....

from music and work - what would you most of all want to do?
7. Mp3 - an abomination or a good way to make your name and music heard?

9. An instrument you always wish that you started playing/learning, but
never did?

night? Brand of the beverage?
- Jörg: Too much
thinking, as long there is alcohol in it, who cares!
11. Which historical person do you feel would fit best as a description
on you as a person?
12. What most people don't know, never have known, and probably never
would know about me if they don't read this?
- Jörg: If people
don´t know and want to know by reading this about what they don´t
know about me I have to admit that I don´t know myself what other
people don´t know so it will be quite hard to find out what it
is that people don´t know about me, it will be something that
I don´t know myself about me really!

13. If a famous actor were to play the part as you in a motion picture
- who would be best suitable for that purpose, you think?
14. What ingredient is the most important and vital of them all when
making good music, according to you?
