About Me

..born at the arse end of the sixties; peter-pan like in looks and perhaps too much in the head; once a jew always a jew; school and uni came and went in the blink of an eye; suddenly an adult and off to eastern europe; grew up in the post-communist blocks of slovakia; bored in london so off further east; only there by accident - but shibuya made me. now eternally bound to be a J-boy in every sense.
resident of London, writer and author, indiepop survivor and fervent internationalist.
