About Me

Sorry bands, I've disabled you from adding me. I am very interested in getting to know new bands, but I'm NOT here for your promotion (unless I choose to) .
Please add your band to the Cirrha Niva MySpace.
If I think your music is cool; you'll find me in your friend request eventually, ok?
If you have a personal profile and like to add me, just do so, but drop a line frequently, otherwise it's no use to be a friend, agree?
Here's a little preview of the upcoming Cirrha Niva CD.
More video's from Cirrha Niva:
So, what about me?
I'm just an average guy with a big taste in music.
I'm lucky to play with some good musicians in a progressive metal/rockband.
I have a cool job in the music/merchandise scene.
My favourite song is Baz Luhrman's Everybody's free.
My favourite colour is Black.
My favourite month is August.
My favourite country is Scotland.
My favourite time is approx. 19.00 PM.
What more nonsense would you like to know from me??? Anyway, I welcome you on MySpace!

My Interests

Enjoying a good beer.
Super des Fagnes

or the Irish Guinness

I'm also interested in the battles, strategies & tactics during WWII.
I like to play Squash & I can enjoy a game of Risk or Axis and Allies.

I'd like to meet:

You, but only if:
If you are also interested in music.
In the best case you have a wide musical taste, ranging from maybe Slayer to Sinatra or from Pink Floyd to Yann Tiersen. (but only metal or your local folklore music is also ok)
If you play an instrument (or feel like to stop playing after seeing Steve Vai, Dream Theater and more of those creatures)
If you have a creative mind (that's something else than a sick mind)
If you are you and not pretend to be someone better.
If you have something funny or interesting to say or to show, or can talk some good nonsense.
If you like culture in the biggest meaning of the word. That could be from visiting churches during holidays (I just like the buildings) or by seeing a Cirque Du Soleil show.
If you're just a nice person, than it's also ok to meet you ( so what's the use of all of the above? Well, everybody else stopped reading along the way, haha).

Well, that's about it.
Ooo, I also hate those who destroy/kill Wild Life and neglect Nature.

Music:

Just something I listen to. Not especially the best, the newest, the hardest!
Just randomly chosen:

Movies:

300
The Phantom of the Opera
Memento
11:14

Television:

Only the news (to see the stupidness of mankind) and some Discovery Documentaries (to see the stupidness of mankind in the past) are interesting enough to spend time on.

Bram Stoker's
Dracula (original version)
Tim Powers'
The Anubis Gates

Top 10 all time favourite CD's.

It's a random order! It was already hard to select only 10 CD's, so why make it harder to give these 10 a rank, agree? You are invited to criticise these 10 if you dare:-) Pink Floyd - Wish You Where ...
