One day, everything will be, as it should be.

About Me

I am a complete music obsessive! I like collecting CD's and vinyl (and tapes, DVDs etc). All i want to do is listen! (And talk to friends, and watch arthouse films, play a bit of guitar and eat pizza! But, not much pizza anymore i'm afraid, trying to watch what i eat, it's so hard!) I started listening to music seriously at about age twelve and grew up listening to Smashing Pumpkins (I'm a big Pumpkins fan and collector), Foo Fighters, Soundgarden and Silverchair. I started playing guitar at twelve also but, i dont really play much any more. I am not happy with my level of my ability on the guitar. I have been practicing lately and it seems that i CAN improve, depsite what i said in my last version of 'about me'. When i do play guitar i really enjoy it and if i get back into playing music sometime in the future then i would like to join or form another band, or even kickstart White Funeral Facade again maybe. Also got a sweeter voice than lots of females, ha! Check out the band i used to be in called White Funeral Facade on Myspace...wwww.myspace.com/whitefuneralfacade. *Since what i said previously about being a musician, things have changed drastically, i am letting this be known... I also live for cult and arthouse cinema. My thirst for new films is higher than it's ever been at the moment. If anyone wants recommendations, then PM me, i have a long list. Some of my favourite directors being Alejandro Jodorowsky, David Cronenberg, Stanley Kubrick, Fernando Arrabal, Conrad Rooks, Kenneth Anger, J.X. Williams and Federico Fellini. I am just over six feet tall, i have long auburn hair again now, cos it's grown back, hehe, it's still messy, i gots a fluffy beard sometimes and i have blues eyes, maybe grey, i dunno really!. Oh yeah, and Neu! are Gods! And there WILL be DoOm!
