Backline Technician/Stage Manager/Full tour pre-production.

I basically travel around the world with musical artists/bands and provide technical support at all of their live performances.
I mainly work on electric/acoustic guitars and basses, but I also do drums and percussion as well as keyboards. I have even worked with violins, mandolins, accordions, and a hurdy-gurdy (huh?). I have a pretty good idea about audio, wireless technology,  MIDI and music software.

Main services provided:

Full instrument cleaning, set-up, and minor repairs. Minor electronic repairs. On tour, I am also responsible for loading and unloading the truck and making sure everything is where it should be on stage.

Other qualities: Multilingual. I speak fluent English, Dutch, German, fairly good French and Spanish. (Believe it or not it's true). I have a valid US passport and European Union Passport. No drugs, no booze, just rock and roll (...and other genres).
