still waiting for the stickers my friend Nicklas at F1 textdecor did for Hopped-Up and send from Sweden to Berlin. look at the post underneath for the way the paket went already. as I said Nicklas send it to Berlin. that’s a big city in the north east of Germany. it’s the capital and it’s name has 6 letters. now, that DHL has pushed it around in some postcenter for 10 days or so someone send it to Hamburg! Hamburg: a big city of about half the size of Berlin in northwest of Germany. oh, but it’s in the north, too. and Hamburg is spelled in 7 letters…so that must be close, right?   

my friends Nicklas Blomberg of F1 text decor printed me 2000 stickers as kind of a sponsoring and send them on march 11th. as I didn t get it 2 weeks later I called DHL. they told me that it couldn t get delivered because the receiver was unknown. let me tell you that I live under that exact adress for about 10 years now and my name is written on the panel of bells in printed type. but she said it would get another chance to get delivered. she checked the files and the adress and I gave her my mobile number.after another week of waiting I called them again and: the same thing happened! receiver unknown. and again they checked and took my adress and phone numer and an alternate adress I did offer. now after it shoud have been delivered yesterday I called them again and: the two ladies I spoke with neither registered my calls and the problem nor checked the adress for real. because the number in the street Nicklas forgot to write. as I get a good number of pakets by post, my street is all in all about 500 meters maximum and my name is to german speakers pretty special I just can’t believe that this d…head marked it receiver unknown. I f….. can not believe shit like this! f… him! who do o you think you are? I mean in every other enterprise you could absolutely not do shit like this! which is also true for the two telphone ladies by the way.let’s hope that it get’s delivered on tuesday now. because until saturday the guy at the hotline said it’s not really realistic that the information is already arrived at the base. of course I understand that. NOT!have a look at the tracking   

a lot of stuff is happening at the same time right now.while Sascha, the grafic designer for Hopped-Up, and me are doing the layout two new people entered the team to do press and promotion and help me organising. I’m very happy to have the opportunity to work with Mic Oala ( PR agency) and Anja Wiroth ( representative). Also new on board is Marc Nutsch being the main person in charge of Hopped-Up at the publisher Onkel+Onkel. To top the team up there are 3 great interns to help.the website is being build right now to be relaunched by april 14th.the interviews are getting translated during these days and I have to finish the introduction…at the same time the audio part of Hopped-Up is getting finished by Ilja/ www.iksample.de the athmosphere CD is gonna be great and Tex Morton’s surf/Hot Rod-song got a blasting intro.during the next days I’ll work on the shirts, too. summer is coming and you might wanna wear some nice shirts!thanks to every one for so much support to make this difficult project of passion come true!

I just came back from the sound engineer who does the cutting and mixing of the CD for Hopped-Up which brings fantastic race-atmosphere to the viewer of Hopped-Up. it`s gonna be great! aside of that we are in the middle of the final phase. everything is coming together right now. it s more than exciting!
