Arno focussed on a career in software systems development during the 5 years that the band were not touring. For the first 3 years of this period he packed away his guitar and focused only on studying computer science and working as a programmer. In 2004 he joined the N*de Girls for their 10th Anniversary Tour, and has since then been making time again for playing classical guitar and bass. He has not started or joined any other bands.
