   About Dukebox


This is the story so far:
Born in California, USA, at the age of 0, recorded the 'Spiderman' theme song when I was 3, moved to Puebla, Mexico at the age of 4, broke my leg on my first (and last) skiing lesson, watched a lot of American TV so I wouldn't forget my English, survived puberty, Dungeons and Dragons and Nintendo, discovered Genesis, Progressive Rock and drums, destroyed every lamp in the house, got a drumkit on my 16th Christmas, met Alejandro Lofig and formed a band, played lots of gigs, gained lots of stage experience, got a 2nd place in a band competition, discovered I could sing, learned guitar, joined a church choir, quit the band, bought some gear, played succesfully as a one man show for a few years in Puebla, moved to Cancun instead of going to University, got a regular gig in 3 days, worked the downtown local scene, discovered Marillion, became the house performer at Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, discovered CouchSurfing, couchsurfed around Europe for a year, got interviewed in Polish television, played in street corners, lived in a truck for a few days, followed my favourite band through all of their tour and got to meet them several times, flew back to Cancun, got a puppy, missed Europe, quit Margaritaville again, sold all my earthly belogings, flew back to Europe, lived in Rotterdam with 2 great roommates, fell in love, celebrated my first snowy Christmas, did a mini-tour with fellow CouchSurfers through the Netherlands, Austria and the Czech Republic, was a Layer for a day, figured that Finland was the best country I'd ever been to, and managed to get a visa to stay.

Music is my life, and I love performing. So, if you visit Helsinki, you have a good chance to find me playing on a street corner, in a local pub, or at your friend's party. Come and say hi.

Hi there Duke. Thanks for the add. Any chance you can book some Dutch gigs towards the end of May, beginning of June? I'll be in Holland that week.
Take care, Marcel.
