He just listened to my demos “Salvation” and “Truth Of Grace” and he seemed to be very impressed by them, so he told me to play keyboard for my album! I have to talk to the other guys and discuss the production of the record soon. Michael LePond (Symphony X) is still very busy because of the latest SympX album and Derek is busy too. Neal Morse drummer Collin Leijenaar will co-produce the record!
There´ll also be a new Musician´s Day in Siegen on November 01st and I´m going to do a guitar workshop again! More information soon.
I´ll marry my wonderful Mirjam soon on september 23rd!

for the sixth piece "Freedom". I had a long talk to Collin Leijenaar about the production process and the upcoming studio sessions in the Netherlands. Please keep all praying because there´ll be a lot work to do! I got an email from Michael LePond from Symphony X and after Collin and I are done with drum and guitar tracks I send him the songs! Please keep also praying for that!
