Life experiences are interesting, especially when they are told by a comedian.   1. When and why did you move from US to Stockholm?   I’ve been […]

Halestorm rocks Stockholm

I was a teenage hard rocker (well, who wasn’t in the 80s)… and while my musical tastes have become more varied since those days, I’ve always been a sucker for catchy melodies.
