Who to blame
Name: Svante Axbacke
Email: svante@thehighwaystar.com
What: The erstwhile editor-in-chief without a life, Svante’s finally seen the light and abdicated the big desk for a less-demanding role. Before coming back. Balancing on the fine line between being a Purplehead and a Blackmoron, he can be found masquerading around Sweden as Bat Cake Van Sex.
Name: Rasmus Heide
Email: rasmus@thehighwaystar.com
What: Rasmus joined our editorial team in 1996. Editor of mainly tour reviews and special features section, Rasmus earns his living as a news editor in corporate communications. He had ‘a previous career’ in international truck driving and currently lives in Copenhagen, Denmark. Loves diving (scuba, not stage!) and also edits Jon Lord’s official website, JonLord.org.
Name: Catrin Thul
Email: catrin@thehighwaystar.com
What: Originating from Hamburg and now moving back and forth in the Southwest of Germany, Catrin managed our international editions (and might be managing them if they appeared again), and some of us upon occasion!
Name: Stephen Graham
Email: stephen@communic-8.com
What: He’s not telling. He’s often to be found at the Drouthie Neebors bar in Edinburgh, though, so you can ask him yourself if you drop in and buy him a drink.
Name: Andreas Thul
Webpage: http://blog.thul.org
What: Partial to Pink Floyd, Epica, Sam Brown, and Jon Lord (not necessarily in that order), Andi hails from Germany. Once upon a time he’d elected to run Roger Glover’s website instead, but since things have been running smoothly over there, he returned to his roots.
Email: nsoveiko@thehighwaystar.com
What: An aspiring freelance brewmaster, Nick possesses propensity for cold countries, good schnitzel and Dutch cigars. He works on the technical side of things and also manages our news and tourdates sections.
