01-10-2009 Michelle... and her dream of being a rockstar

Taken from the site : http://www.dreamsadolescents.blogspot.com

"My name is Michelle Jurriaans. I live at home with my parents and my brother Rick, my sister Kelly has already left home. It is always very nice at home, there are often people around and a lot of Rock 'n' Roll and Classic Rock is played since I was a little girl. I love rock and began to dress me alike in the course of the years, this was not according to everyone's taste. Sometimes I received many comments my clothes because I sometimes fell out of place compared to other classmates. I like going to a nice pub, for example the Minds, or Excalibur, The Cave etc. So especially the cafes for metal or rock. My dream is to be a rock star. In my free time I like going to concerts, short list of bands I've seen are: Iron Maiden, Kiss, Iced Earth, Children Of Bodom, Saxon, Judas Priest, Morbid Angel, Nile, Yngwie Malmsteen, Behemoth. I love metal so much because you need lots of musical talent to make this kind of music."

Michelle is on her dream photo with members of Chainsaw. They drove in their tourbus to Paradiso, where they gave a whole concert with Michelle. Michelle has played guitar and the singer showed her how to look cool on stage.
