About Me

"It is better to be looked over than overlooked" - Mae West.

Why "Hootchie Cootchie Man"? It's a favourite blues track by Muddy Waters, recorded in 1954.

The purpose of this site is twofold:

1) to keep in touch with my Bachelor of Popular Music graduates, many of whom are now working overseas (hello to you all!); and

2) as a point of contact for artists and creative industries who are working on the Gold Coast or who have an interest in the Gold Coast creative industries.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Karl Marx, Charlize Theron, and ET.
