2 decisions I regret
You should only regret the things you didn’t do.

3 people that should collaborate
Ditt Inre and Satan. That’s three guys.

4 things I haven’t done yet
Eaten the last burger. Lived in NYC or Tokyo. Sailed the seven seas. Transcended life and death.

5 things I used to believe
The earth was flat. Smoking was bad for you. I knew everything. Life would get easier. I didn’t need a car.

6 hours ago
Was sleeping!

7 days I barely remember
Most days in high school.

After 8 p.m.
We usually make music or drink beer. Or make music while drinking beer. And the occasional indulgence of greasy food of course.

My 9 lives
9. Since three is the magic number, we will use 3 lives to explore, 3 to fail, and 3 to succeed.

10 bands I can’t live without
The Notwist, The Embassy, Shuggie Otis, Sly & The Family Stone, Michael Jackson, Stina Nordenstam, Thomas Andersson-Wij, Kool Keith, The Clash, KLF. Ohhh, this is too hard. 10 are way too few.
