About Me

From Melbourne originally... now living in London, absorbing as much of this insane city as I possibly can....

My Interests

Music, Film, Techy stuff, Great food, Wine, Sunshine.. all these thinks make me tick...I'm sucker for engineering... cars (Lotus, MR2, MX5) and more recently, bikes like the Yamaha R1 and the Ducati Monster.Wine. A good Pinot Noir or Rijoa thanks.Independent cinema... and your occasional TV series like Lucky Louie, Weeds or House

I'd like to meet:

Locals. And non-locals.

Music:

... all types. But if we're getting specific..... Bob Mould/Hüsker Dü takes the top spot, and then others including Sparklehorse, the Replcements/Paul Westerberg, You Am I, Wilco, Guided By Voices, Pixies, American Analog Set, The Beatles, Big Star, Springsteen, Calexico, Deathcab for Cutie, Gram Parsons, the Posies/Ken Stringfellow, The Magnetic Fields, Pavement, Richard Thompson, Ride, Screamfeeder, Sleater-Kinney, Son Volt, Superchunk, Swervedriver, Teenage Fanclub, the Shins, The Stooges, Tortoise, Trans Am and Yo La Tengo.More recent stuff includes 'The Knife' and the 'The Hold Steady' which get my vote for the albums of last year.

The first blog...

Thought I'd put a bit of effort into the old Myspace page, thanks to Ryan for fronting up as the first friend on here. That's all for now... more to come... possibly.
