Now for those of you who are not familiar with this 40-something pissed off tattooed hardcore punk-rock icon on Vans, Google and YouTube him as you might learn a thing or two.

About 18 months ago I left Ghent, wondering where I’d end up. Gave up a great house in LedeBronx together with some great housemates. We all went our separate ways and mine ended up in Ghent de nouveau. Now the hunt for a new crib starts. Time to return to Ghent. Back to the roots [...]
