English translation: Miha Guštin - Gušti before the silver wedding

(I thought it would be fun to try and translate this article that Maks shared on his ig story, so here it is. BIG thank you to @kurooscoffee for correction and helpful advice <3)

Miha Guštin - Gušti before the silver wedding

With Chantal, they will celebrate 25 years of marriage

For a musician Miha Guštin - Gušti, it’s a year of jubilees. In his professional life, he’s celebrating 40 years of his career, in his private life, 25 years of marriage. The former, he’ll celebrate on the 19th of September with a concert called Moje sanje, moj planet (My dreams, my planet) in Križanke, but he still doesn’t know when and where he will celebrate the second one with his wife Chantal.

“We have no serious plans for now. On one hand I would like to have a big party with all our friends and family, because it coincides with my concert in Križanke, but we will most likely go on a nice romantic trip later, somewhere warm and calm,” Gušti told us during the promotion of his new album titled Ljubezen osvobaja (Love frees/sets you free).

At home, everything is becoming more and more calm as well. “Kris moved out two years ago, Maks is planning to move out in September. Thankfully, we have a very loud dog named Apple,” told us Chantal, laughing. Despite all that, they still remain very connected. Their conversations always revolve around music, because they are all involved in it. Kris, as is known, creates music with the band Joker Out, their daughter Maja has also her band herself, Chantal is the PR representative for SonicTribe and Maks often deals with visual work or works backstage.

“Maks is now finishing secondary media school and plans to continue studying in the field of film. Not right now, but later. For now, he’s going to take a little break and relax a bit. He has worked, and still is working, very hard. He helped with all the music videos that Joker Out made with Mark Pirc, he was also there for Neisha's music video and for the recording of the MRFY concert. He also works a lot as a roadie and travels a lot with the Jokers as part of the support crew.

Our daughter Maja is 14 years old and last year she started to play the guitar. She has the same teacher that Kris had, Matej Mršnik, and she’s progressing really nicely. She also has a school band. There are four girls: Maja sings and plays the guitar, then there is a drummer, bassist and another guitarist. In June, they will have their first performance at valeta*”, Chantal told us.

I would like to ask for your guidance as someone with a degree in Joker Out!

Of course I know about our boys, but I don't know anything about the people surrounding them, like Kiki. Could you enlighten me, maybe?

Hi there - I can try my best but disclaimer out of the way, I don't know a lot either :'D (so if anybody else have something to add or if I have misunderstood/made an error somewhere please let me know :'D)

Okay so as far as I know these are (some of) the people around Joker Out

Kristjan aka Kiki is a stage person (I believe?) - good friend of the band and seems very funny and nice to hang around with. (fun fact: he gave me a setlist in Malmö :3)

Sergej is another recognisable stage person - he often sits by the side controlling the sound/lights if I am not mistaken? Bigger guy with buzz cut- seems pretty nice as well ^V^

Vita Orehek is a friend and photographer of the band - often seen touring with the boys as one of if not single lady (if the videos is something to go by) more fun facts: At Ruisrock Vita would interview us in the crowd about our feelings towards Sta Bih Ja - I didn't get interviewed but my friend did (I was too busy trying my best getting over my hate of sparkling water so to actually drink the water Vita had brought me to help me from fainting).

Mark Pirc is another photographer closely connected to Joker Out - he is the one filming most of Joker Out's music videos and the docomentaries Carpe Diem and Welcome to Backstage. You can find little clips of people saying 'hi Mark' in said documentaries which I find quite adorable :3

Dean Grainger is yet another photographer that is often taking pictures of the boys. He has been following the boys around for about a year (posted a series of anniversary posts on IG recently)

Maks is Kris' younger brother and helped as a stage person for a little while (he is now off to college if I remember correctly). He looks more like his mother than Kris does.

Karlo Kirri is a designer that makes most of Joker Out's stage outfits using traditional slovenian embroidery. Really cool, really awesome! Love the pride the guys have in their heritage like this!!

Yeah that was my very brief and probably very chaotic guide xD hopefully it is helpful and that I didn't make too many mistakes :'D
