Hello Joe.

Thanx for your mail.

I've been working with ACCEPT for a long time now. In fact I was the original guitar player in the band together with Udo before 1970. Wolf Hoffmann replaced me after I got drafted to the Army in Germany.

I have worked on a lot of Accept albums. BREAKER was my very first "Metal" engineering/mixing job. Then I engineered and mixed RESTLESS AND WILD, I mixed BALLS TO THE WALL and produced engineered and mixed RUSSIAN ROULETTE (even though it got remixed later) and I produced engineered and mixed "PREDATOR". I also mixed the live album of the last tour in Germany which has not been released yet.

Udo and me went to school together (since we were six years old) and grew up together. Now I live in Nashville (close to Wolf Hoffmann) and I have a studio here where we are recording Wolf's solo project. I don't have a lot of contact to Udo anymore, since he lives in Germany.

I have also worked with a lot of other Rock bands like: SKID ROW, EXTREME, ALICE COOPER, OZZY, QUEEN, DOKKEN, METALLICA, MEGADETH, STEVE JONES, MOTELY CRUE, TESTAMENT, BLACK SABBATH and about another 50 guitar oriented bands.

So drop me aline if you have any questions and I'll do my best to answer them as soon as I can find the time.

Keep up the good work with the Rock pages. It's exactly what the kidz need.

Kind Regards

Michael Wagener
