? for how long have you been into the 64
  scene. or in other words : please tell
  us when you entered the world of the
  commodore 64 - and it's scene?

! my father bought an used c-64 back in
  1988(i think)and i fooled around
  playing/collecting games.
  then i had a break during -91 and
  started up my c-64 biss' again in -92.
  in august i talked to a friend of mine
  who was on the scene and i copied some
  mags,games,slideshows,demos and gfx
  programs from him.i started to draw
  some lame logos/piccys(only in fli!)
  and later on i contacted some dudes..
  i guess i contacted about 7 dudes the
  first time(only with letter)and no one
  answered.then i decided to phone up
  WAX/WOW and he helped me on to this
  great scene.i entered the scene in
  december 1992,got a few more contax
  like FIREWALKER/TNC and PETE/ACRISE
  and that was it i guess.

                jamaica,internal and
                ofcourse skyhigh!

                shavitt and shogoon.

     grafixer  :electric,wave,death.

     cover des.:don't know.(electric?!)

     sceneland :norway!(what'd you think
                i was gonna write??)

                    (perhaps peru!! bk!)

     demo      :red storm

     game      :scenario,defender of the
                crown,nobby the aardwark


? and last :
  your favourite friend(s) in the scene

! merlin,calypso,eagle,ibanez,biz kid,
  d'ram,wax,tabasco,uptonogood!,steve!,
  spermbird,pandaco,pete...

? yeah a whole lot of things you liked.
  but what about things you dislike!

  is there any particulary phenomena or
  mayby dudes you do not like in the
  scene. give us the story!!

! i don't like foreign people who contax
  me with a postcard asking me to send
  them a disc.
  and i don't like folx who don't answer
  my contact sendings.

? what is your plans for the future ?
  both in the scene and in private !

! in real life i don't know..just to get
  a nice girlie(hilde?!)and spend time
  with her,get a job,car,house etc..

  in the scene i will try to get tsr-
  euro to become a much better group
  with high quality demos and crax.but
  it's really hard to get coders and
  other folx into the group.so if there
  is anyone who is interested in joining
  tsr,then just drop me a line and we'll
  see..ok?

? the c64 scene unfortunately can't live
  forever !
  when it dies (in a lot of years!!)
  what will you then do?
  jump to the (l)amiga or pc, or simply
  quit the entire compy-scene?

! when the scene dies i will probably
  buy an amiga and try to get into
  andromeda.(coz i've got a few friends
  in that group)i will definatly not
  jump to the pc,coz pc's really sux!
  belive me!
  but i don't think the scene will die
  yet..i mean i think the scene will
  live on for atleast 5 years,if people
  don't loose the interest.
  but when it dies it will keep on
  living in our minds!

? people often talk about a lamer.
  but what is a lamer?. please give me
  your definition !

! hard question but here's some
  suggestions:
 -a person is lame if he contacts you
  with old stuff and with a list over
  his/her's stuff.

 -it's also totally lame to arrange a
  fake party!

 -a lamer is also a dude who lies to
  people just to get into a better group
  or to get more known.

           about your contacts
           -------------------

? do ya have a lot of contacts ?
  (how many - name a few.)

! i've got about 40 contacts..
  like:d'ram,eagle,calypso,biz kid,wax,
  merlin,ibanez,tabasco,pete,spermbird,
  bizarre,voyage,godfather,caine,steve,
  therion,stash,mr.legal,mj,stornlord,
  anarchy,mr.bungle..........

? do you prefer legal stuff or cracks
  from your contacts.?

! i prefer a bit of both.i also love
  to recive originals!

? do you use cheated stamps ?

! yes,but not so much anymore.

? why

! i use cheated stamps coz the post sux!
  no not really..it's just so expensive.
  i'm not using cheated stamps so much
  anymore coz i've lost quite a few
  contacts and i don't send out so often
  anymore.(but i wish i could..)

? magazines! some people say there's too
  many - some say there's not!!
  what do you think?

! i think that if a group wants to make
  a mag,then fine..i don't care.
  but i think groups should be more
  consetrated on doing demos.
  but mags are ok too.there will never
  be enough warez on a computer scene.

? they for one thing sure keep the scene
  alive, but what about demos?
  what do you think about the quality of
  the demos produced nowadays?

! demos are great!the amount of demos
  which are being released these days're
  far to low..but(i think)i know how
  hard it's to make a demo..so...
  the quality of the demos are really
  good and it really amazes amiga folx.
  but i'm looking forward to the first
  c-64 demo designed like the kefrens
  demos on the amiga.

? what is your advice to all the demo -
  producing groups, concerning their
  future productions?

! produce more demos! and try to get
  more design in them.instead of just
  a filled vector,then try to make a
  kind of a space-ship out of the vector
  flying over a landscape etc..
  some new and revolutionary ideas would
  do fine too.

? if you had the opportunity to build up
  a new group - which persons would you
  like to join ?


! coders       :tts,jfk,wax,tron,axis,
                d'arc,bj0rn rost0en...

  musicians    :pri,tdm,htd,shark,zyron,
