Bad ass barman/rock n roll moment?

I got fired once – because I forced my panda head over my gm’s head.

Ever done it on a bar?

Nope…..

What's next for you?

Cruising the bar scene of Copenhagen some more, maybe a bit more on the other side of the bar. Making sure the BarChicks gets around when they come back!

Best/worst chat up lines you've heard at a bar?

Oh there has been so many, the worst ones for me are the guys who have read “The Game” and think they are the shit, it just makes me wanna punch them between the eyes.

Beefeater 24, Lillet – stirred and garnished with a lemon twist. Classic, and always a win.
