New rehearsal room
September 7, 2011 | Author Asgeir Mickelson
I finally found myself a new rehearsal room (thank you Marius!) where I’ll be rehearsing with Sarke and ICS Vortex. Of all things, it’s a room in the basement under a barn out in the countryside. It’s located close to Jessheim, which is about a 20-25 minute drive from Oslo. The rehearsal room is small, but I don’t play much drums so it’s perfect for my needs. Today Jens, Terje and I set up our gear and played through some of the ICS Vortex songs. It was nice to finally play my own Yamaha drumkit again! Check out some pictures below!

Summer is over
August 7, 2011 | Author Jens F. Ryland
For most of us the summer is now over and it’s back to normal again, or at least trying to. It’s not easy, first I spend four weeks trying to not do something all the time. All of a sudden it’s over and I have to try to increase my pace again.
The small/ big moments in life
The summer has been special for sure, in several ways. Most significant was the terror attacks in Oslo and Utøya, something that will dominate the news-picture, everyday talk, elections an legislation here in Norway for a while yet. I expect it to be the object of many debates in my last year as student also. Read the rest of this entry »
