Magnus Liljeqwist Homepage

Information

My name is Magnus Liljeqwist. I live in Finspång (150 kilometers south-west of Stockholm), Sweden.

I'm a drummer and I listen a lot to music (AOR or Westcoast).TOTO are my favourite group and their late drummer Jeff Porcaro is in my opinion one of the absolutely best drummer ever.I collect records that Jeff Porcaro played on and I have about 150 (which is a very small amount since he played on about 2000). Westcoastrecords (AOR) is also something that I collect.

I got my first drum when I was one year old and after that I got several other toydrums until my seventh birthday when I got my first real drum. In 1979, I started taking drumlessons for drumteacher Anders Nord and in 1983 I began in Finspångs blåsorkester, a symphonic brassband. The christmas 1979, I got my MAYA set that I played on until 1990 when i bought my TAMA set.
