With regards his live performances, there's an hilarious clip from when Eden's Curse were supporting Dream Theater and about to play No Holy Man. He looks over and shouts "Are you fuckin ready TK?" like he's playing to a sold out Wembley Stadium. By the look on Torsten's face you can almost hear the bewildered German guitarist thinking "No Michael, I'm standing here with both hands on my guitar, plugged in and amped up because I'm about to start playing a long game of chess".

We're the first in all creation, to live on the ground and sing"
