About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
Who I am: My name is Edith. I live in Holland, near Amsterdam. I'm married and have 2 kids.
My occupation: part-time technical/administrative job in climate control.
My hobby: As a hobby, I promote the bands/musicians I am fan of. That resulted in me being tour manager of Transaudio, and helping out Ian Britt and DeviantUK with promotion of their Dutch gigs.
Other websites: http://youtube.com/Edith1969 ; http://redheadlass.hyves.nl ; http://transaudio.hyves.nl; http://deviantuk.nl
My story behind this site on MySpace: I started this site because I'm a fan of Simple Minds and FourGoodMen. In time, the site turned into a promotional site for all the bands I like.
My favourite bands: Simple Minds, FourGoodMen, DeviantUK, Ian Britt, Fish, Within Temptation
Who would I like to meet: I still haven't met Jim Kerr, so that would be a dream come true! I have met the other favourite bands/musicians, but of course I would love to meet them again, as much as I can!
My plans for the future: Just try and work in music as much as I can. This has always been a dream of me, and I'm glad I have been given the chance to fulfill this dream!
