(g,v)
Name:

Sebastian "Sebastard" Richard Laengerer

Place and date of birth:

Toulouse (France)/ 11 April 1974

Now living in:

Heidelberg, Germany

Profession:

Master of Educational Science/Criminology/Child and youth psychiatry, Rocksuperstar.

Instrument:

Guitars/Vocals, Bass.

Other instruments:

I used to play a li'l o´classical cover rock as a drummer, for a while. That was while ID was down for a year. Was a really cool experience rhythmically and thematically. But i was never good enough to play other ID songs than "Change of Course" or "Avenger"...

Other bands:

Nope not really...ID 4 LIFE !

My first metal band was called "Fear of Godzilla", more kind of a fun Band, consisting of four friends who had just begun to play and suuuuucked to the max ! I played guitar with FOG, we luckily never appeared Live. Then i had to play the funky Bass in our schoolband called the "shittin Teenagers" ("die scheißenden Teenies")...that was my first cover song experience, we played only one Gig, even though we were pretty damn good i think !

Started to play:

I started to play bass and electric guitar when i was around 15 years old. I sucked until i was 18 on guitars, but was much better and faster learning on Bass. Somtimes i think that i still suck on guitars...but then i just have to listen to some MASTER releases and i feel like evil Chuck (RIP) again...
