2010 | 2009 | 2008 | 2007

30th of December 2008

This year is almost over now. It's been a great year for me and 2009 will be just as amazing as 2008, of that I'm sure.

Talking of AMAZING THINGS... check this out:



The LITTER KWITTER < Video!

I think I'll get it for our cats.
There's no distribution in Switzerland yet. Anyone?
It's apparently coming from Australia.

26th of December 2008

Am I having a déja-vu? A month is gone with no updates. Well, I have to say that I haven't got my own laptop at the moment. The harddisc kind of died so I had to get a new one and it takes some time to set it all up again with the OS and all programms.

I can get it in the beginning of January - then I'll be up and running again as normal.

Merry Christmas to everyone - and a Happy New Year!

28th of November 2008

It has been a hectic month - sorry for not updating so frequently. I've been hosting quite a few CinéCardNights, LadiesNights and SurpriseNights at the movies in Basel lately.

Quantum of Solace, Madagascar2, Vicky Cristina Barcelona just to name a few.

I also went to see THE ROOTS live in concert at the Volkshaus in Zurich. An amazing live experience!

On the 3rd of December, I'll host Basel 1 Unplugged at DAS SCHIFF with Jenniffer Kae, Myron, Tanja Dankner and others. We celebrate 25 years Commercial Radio.

Oh, and yes, I cut my hair ;-)

3rd of November 2008

I'm welcoming two new sponsors to my portfolio - clothing brand nabholz and the headphones company SkullCandy.

It's November now - time to bring back my Buell 1125R... let's see what happens next year.

17th of October 2008

I have created a book of our wedding - you can get youself a copy of it right on blurb.com

6th of October 2008

I was hosting the CinéCardNight for the movie WALL-E. A really sweat movie - go and see it.

Here's the link to the swiss WALL-E page.

This week, I'll host the CinéCardNight for the movie BURN AFTER READING with Brad Pitt and the LadiesNight movie NIGHTS IN RODANTHE with Richard Gere.

19th of September 2008

You can have a look at some of the pictures of our wedding on this link here.

Almost all pictures where taken by my friend and best man Andreas Bornstein. Thank you very much!

And by the way - Freestyle.ch will be up very soon - be sure to check out the Styles Party on Saturday @ Kanzlei.

10th of September 2008

For all that didn't know - I'm getting married to my love Nina this Friday!
Yeah, Friday the 12th :-)

After the wedding at the civil registry office, it's family only - so we won't invite anyone else for an apéro - and we won't throw a party this year, sorry!

But we want to invite all of our friends for a huge party sometime in August of 2009. Just stay tuned.

25th of August 2008

I want to walk from London to LIVERPOOL to see the MTV EMAs... and possibly hand over an award too!

You can VOTE FOR ME to make it happen! What are you waiting for?!

21st of August 2008

I got invited to the opening of the MONTBLANC boutique at Marketplace in Basel. After having a look at the boutique, we all went to LES TROIS ROIS for an apéro, dinner, dessert and some cultural delights in between. Monsieur Pierre Amoyal played on his Stradivari violin for 45 minutes, accompanied by a female pianist.

Thanks a lot for the invitation. Anytime again :-) it was delicious.

16th of August 2008

It's a great day to go BUELL riding - yes, BUELL, not BULL.
Harley-Davidson Switzerland invited me to come up to the pass of St. Gotthard to see some Swiss bands play like Gölä and Gotthard (yep, same name as the pass). More Info about the event HERE.

PS: I just uploaded my current showreel - have a look!


7th of August 2008

Today, the 8th ESC started in Basel - the European Skateboarding Championship.
They have a mad Mini-Ramp wich is super wide and looks super fun to ride - I will go and check it out today.

I've got you the link to the official program (pdf).

And the link to the offical ESC08 website.

Plus the BlackCrossBowl got painted blue again - looks awesome, I'll be there every eveing this weekend - starting tonight :-)

26th of July 2008

I just got tomtom 7 with maps of Western Europe from the internet for about 60 Euros for my HTC Touch Diamond. Works just fine.

Looks really good on that VGA screen... love it!

24th of July 2008

Aaaaah, this vacation in Italy was soooo goood!
Now I'm back on track and about to finish my showreel for all the TV stations out there :-)

The showreel can be seen on Gee-Jay.com/showreel

10th of July 2008

I am in Gubbio / Umbria / Italy for two weeks - until the 20th of July - and I can tell you, it's a wonderful place!
We (Nina, Nina's parent's & me) live in a house up in the hills where you can overlook Gubbio. Just stunning! Here is a little taste of it...

27th of June 2008

I witnessed the Germans win against the Turkish - live at St. Jakob Stadium... and this weekend, I'm going to Krakau, Poland for a G-Shock Event!!!

I got invited by Casio Switzerland and Germany (thanks so much, guys!).

17th of June 2008

I went to see SWITZERLAND win against PORTUGAL at the stadium St. Jakob in Basel. OK, to be fair - it wasn't the strongest team, Portugal could deliver, but it was still great to win at least ONE match at the EURO 08. Thanks to Dominik for the invitation - we had seats right at the middle line = AWESOME. Next match: the semi final - also in Basel. It's gonna be a BLAST!!!

5th of June 2008

I'm still waiting to gey my Buell 1125R (apparently, they have some delivery problems), meanwhile I got a Buell Lightning XB12 STT. Of course, I branded it right away with some Zimtstern stickers.

I will attend the so called Ladies Days in Hinwil this weekend! But I won't ride - it's ladies only :-) I will host the auction that will happen this Sunday evening - you can buy a paractically new machine for a few thousand Swiss Francs less then normal with the full warranty of course.

Check it out online! It's free, you don't even have to have a permit. You can come and ride a Harley-Davidson or a Buell even if you have never been on a motorcycle!


1st of June 2008

Gotthard rocked the place, it didn't rain, so no use for rubber boots - the infrastructure at the EURO CAMP in Pratteln was really good, so don't you worry if you wanna go there - it's all set up and ready for you.

I will see Gölä on the 5th of this month at the same venue. He sings songs in Swiss-German (until now, he sold the most records as a Swiss-German singing artist) and sometimes also in English (does not sell as good) and he comes from Bern, the capital of Switzerland. He even has the crest of Berne tattooed on his chest. Wow, that rhymed!

31st of May 2008

Tonight, I'll announce a few bands at the FANCAMP in Pratteln.

The lineup is the following:

18:45 - 19:30 > BIG B`s POWERPILOTS
19:50 - 20:35 > FREAKUENCY
21:00 - 22:15 > THE 50's-FIVE
22:15 > HARLEY DAVIDSON / BUELL Sweepstakes
23:00 - 00:30 > GOTTHARD
00:30 - 02:00 > DJ Fishkiss

You probably better wear rubber boots because it was raining like crazy yesterday night.

26th of May 2008

I interviewed Sara Bareilles this Monday. She is on a promo tour at the moment and she sang at Club Mascotte in Zurich. The show was great, her voice is truly amazing.

Sara is well known for her hit single "Love Song" that you have probably heard before.


21st of May 2008

This evening, I'll host the CinéCardNight of INDIANA JONES and the KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SCULL - one day before the official worldwide release.
As usual, there will be an apéro prior to the screening. The problem about that: there is no intermission - so you'll have to hold everything that you have poured into yourself - until the bloody movie is over. UNLESS of course, you show up with with one of those very practical bags.

Hey, I'm just kiddin'.

13th of May 2008

The last few days where great with lots of sun and warmth. I was out as much as I could - people already ask my why I've got this tan :-)

News from the HTC Touch Diamond:

Digitec.ch will sell it for 799.- Swiss Francs.

Have a look at the HTC Touch Diamond online, to check out the phone.

Yesterday, I got my (2'000) business cards and also the marantz solid state recorder PMD620.

Jo is denn scho Weihnochtn?!

The marantz recorder ist great! The recording quality is stunning - even in mp3 mode! It's a nice little gadget with a nice touch and feel. I love it already.

28th of April 2008

I had an excellent weekend with Nina. I first went skateboarding the BlackCrossBowl in the afternoon, then celebrating the 40th birthday of Markus (a friend of Nina's) in Muttenz and then after midnight, the 30th birthday of Gogo 'till early in the morning on the nt* Areal / Gleis 13. It was awesome - there was a live band, a ghetto fire, a bar and lots of beer and party people. We where dancing the night away. Thanks Gogo and Markus for the invitations! And thanks to Nina to be with me :-)

25th of April 2008

A few days ago, I announced the movie "Made Of Honor". Sweet :-)
"Sex And The City - The Movie" and "Indy 4" - will be the next films that I will also announce a bit later on.

On Wednesday, an article about me driving the Skoda Roomster Scout was published on page 31 of the heute... news paper. They managed to spell my last name with an "i" instead of a "y" at the end. Bastards! *lol*

16th of April 2008

Today, I'll be at REX 2 in Basel to announce the Ladie's Night Movie "Fool's Gold".

Just now, I was on Star TV (every Wednesday at 6:30 PM) with clothes provided by
THREE CHEERS AND A TIGER.

Thanks a lot, Gilles.

PRfact was founded 2'000 days ago. Yesterday, that special day was celebrated at the Kaufleuten Festsaal in Zurich.

Claus Zimmermann (Zimtstern Marketing)

Michael Pedratscher & Christoph Haas
(both from Harley Davidson / Buell Switzerland)

Salar Bahrampoori
(also used to work at Swizz Music Television)

It was a fun event with music, free drinks (Mojito & Co.) and free food (Chicken Satay, Risotto, etc.).

I met a loads of people and of course it was a great opportunity to do some networking.

My thanks go out to Chris Schlittler and Alain Mehmann from PRfact for the invitation.

More pictures of that evening are available on persoenlich.com

11th of April 2008

I have been to Basel World, visiting the CASIO booth to say hello to all the people that support me with my beloved G-Shock watches.

I was quite lucky to enter the booth, just when they started to serve sushi and champagne - exelent timing!

Not only did I eat and drink delicious stuff - I also met a lot of interesting people - including 2 guys from Casio Germany: Marc and Daniel. On the picture below, you can see me with Marc, posing in front of the all new (and for a G-Shock pretty expensive) MR-G model MRG-8000. I have the predecessor, the MRG-7500 on my wrist.

Check out the flash website of MR-G Japan!

Thanks a lot to Daniel for sending me this picture - I'm looking forward to join you in Poland this summer for that crazy G-Shock event you told me about :-)

8th of April 2008

I got a call from Müller & Jussel - the guys that provided me with a Buell XBS12S naked bike last year.

This year, they will give me the all new 1125R - a superbike with a 146 horsepower / 148 PS / 109 kW engine. Crazy. I'm looking forward to it. Yeehaa! Should be ready in about three weeks time.

4th of April 2008

Yesterday, my fiancée Nina had her 28th birthday! We had a nice round of people at our place and celebrated from 6 PM until midnight.

Today, my Grandmother - we just call her "Oma" - has her 90th birthday! That's more then three times Nina's age!

We will celebrate this special day today and on Sunday on Bienenberg in Liestal.

PS: Michi Lüthi designed me my new business cards upon the design of the new Black Tiger / MC Rony record.

Have a look at it here.

27th of March 2008

This wednesday, I was hosting the football match Switzerland vs. Germany on Radio Basel 1. It was a test game for the Euro '08. The game was being held in Basel at the Joggeli stadium.

Switzerland lost 0:4 - Boom! After the game, one of the Swiss players said "good luck it was only a test game!" True.

Well, hopefully, this game was a wake up call for the Swiss football team. We will see...

22nd of March 2008

Tonight, I'll be at the Tanzpalast in Basel for the BREAKLIVE TV pilot show that will be made at the B-Boy Unit contest. Doors open at 6 PM.

Just got 34 yesterday, we celebrated at home with some Linzertorte and Bubbly. Hey, spring is just around the corner!

10th of March 2008

This Thuesday, I'll go to the international 78th Motor-Show in Geneva to have a look at all the new shiny dirt slings. My favorite so far: the Suzuki Kizashi. OK, it looks like an alien but I still like it. I think it looks great from all sides. Suzuki wants to bring out that car in 2010 - I hope, it's going to look identical to the concept car displayed.

Click on the picture to enlarge it. If you want to know more about this car... Google it!

4th of March 2008

Here's a picture, click to enlarge! More of it on usgang.ch

20th of February 2008

I interviewed Colbie Caillat for Radio Basel 1 and later on enjoyed the Showcase with all drinks on Universal - thanks a lot. Announced where 30 minutes - played where 60 minutes. I like!

Colbie was really down to earth, answering every question with a smile, allthough she was quite tired of all the traveling... the day before, she was in Sweden, the day before that she was in Norway... and the tour goes on.
