About Me

About me, About turn left right left right. That whole diatribe if you can call it a diatribe would have worked so much better if the box thingy wasn't entitled band bio and actually said about me. Ahhh Nevermind the bollocks. Right so eah anyway, what, wait no I'll start over: I'm Fido McCokefeen, I've recently discovered if you stroke the inside of a tent when wet, you get drenched. A little bit of insider scoop for you all there. I of course take myself, like you should oh so fricking seriously! I'm kind of getting of the point here I think but hey ho let's go who care bears. So I'm Tall Blue Midget, I like long walks, cups of coffee and the occasional slap in the face. I've been making music for a while now, well ever since the make a wish foundation gave me all the equipment. My actual real birth name if you're interested is Rupert or now known to people as NEIL HALL, I chose the name Neil as it's just such a great name. It doesn't make me sound like 76 or a builder or anything so I still maintain it was the best choice for me! Now let's get down to show business and finger bang. Tall Blue Midget is a creation that descended from the outer realm of Swindon, just left of the magical magic roundabout. Well Cheney Manor in fact. I sat in front of my computer tickled a synth and what I came up with was sound that often filled the empty space of 3 and a half minutes, yet took me four and a half years to make. I independently released something up the walls of my toilet, a little joke there for the kiddies ho hum ho hum. Yes well, released a debut album entitled Tall Blue Midget, original that! I'm currently polishing up my second release that probably about seven people will hear in its complete form. I feel so sorry for the rest of you as track four actually instructs you of how to go about time travelling so in all honestly it's worth it just for that. It contains 15 tracks ( first album this is, sorry about punctuation. Blame Commonweal School, The mall, Swindon. Go there, take a look around. yummy ! ) of wonderment all composed by little old me. Forgot the name; well it's Peter......no no no sorry now I'm confused, it's Neil! Second album called sweetly : THE DEATH OF PRINCESS LOVELY. I have now moved from Swindon to Exeter to live with my lady. Lady equals girlfriend, soul mate, superlative worthy of a Myspace page! Jenny. She is actual amazment and a person I can't envisage my life without. She is the inspiration for a lot of my music so you've her to thank or blame. My tunes, sonnets, wordless poems expressions of freedom and truth and love and marriage and children and running water and cups of urine and and wouldn't be here if it wasn't for my Jenny Jen Jen so as long as she keeps beating me and kicking me into that dark corner, the reverse is oh so true that you'll get the dark yet uplifting tunes of Tall Blue Midget. Being the celebrity that I am and so up my own arse. I did previously have a Myspace page but I have actually forgotten all the sign information so that's pants. This is the new Tall Blue Midget page. So come here. No no not in the face. Feel free to talk to me, contact me, leave comments, listen eat sour dough bread and share all your thoughts. I hope to take over the world with my wicked macchinations so just be happy and talk talk talk to me... width="425" height="350" ..

Band Members: TALL BLUE MIDGET or otherwise known as NEIL HALL. I prefer to be called Rupert but understand the oxymoron works so much better! I use a Micro Korg synth, acid pro, fruity loops, Zoom MRS 1608 multi-track for guitars and vocals, condenser mic, shure mic ave it love it etc etc and put it together in Cubase. More junk and toys in there too but that's a secret weapon like a CO-OP trifle. I just can't keep a secret. Michael Bolton's in there too!

Influences: Knifehandchop, Drop The Lime, Adam Freeland, The Stone Roses, Ian Brown, Bill Hicks, Prodigy, Richard Pryor, Robin Williams, Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy, Spongebob Square pants ( my Jen is to blame!) Tom Waits, Nick Drake, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Evil Nine, Gabber, Gabby Young, Happy Hardcore, Hixxy, DJ Supreme, Billy Bunter, Tiny Elvis, The International Noise Conspiracy, JFK ( the person, not the film, although the film is grand) Operation Ivy, Rancid, Pennywise, Hot Hot Heat. Oingo Boingo, and most of all my wonderful piece on the side, Wenty:
Sounds Like: I wish it sounded like something everyone loved. I rarely put lyrics to my music. I'm starting to so it's more appealing and well accessible like Slipknot I suppose. But I have to juggle things around so it's hard to operate a microphone when spinning bottles and sharp objects over my head. I guess it sounds how ever you want it to sound. Typical maybe of the genre. I hope not. Just being me and if you like then let me know.
