About Me

Step right up folks! Come closer, don't be shy now!

Not much to say... I live in a soulless apartment, have a mind numbing job, and have no future to speak of...or do I??? Read on to learn more!

Things aren't really that bad! I'm blessed with lots and lots of friendly friends, good mood 'n looks, and feet made for dancin'!
I dance lindy hop, and have been doing so for about a year. I dabble with tap and charleston as well, but mainly lindy hop. I have a partner and we're doing quite well, if I may say so!

I like vintage clothes. I prefer the Savile Row style, "The dapper gentleman". I enjoy wearing a vintage suit, or to sport a Gatbsyian look. But of course, I venture into the 50's from time to time.
I'm looking for a new job, so if anyone wants to work with me, let me know :)

That about does 'er!

Which Twin Peaks character are you?
You're Special Agent Dale Cooper. You're often too brilliant for people to really follow, but your infectious enthusiasm makes up for the fact that you're frequently incomprehensible. You are smart, intuitive, clear-headed, compassionate, and cute as hell -- about your only flaw is your insane coffee consumption.

My Interests

I have a big interest in the 20's, 30's and 40's! The clothes, the music, the society.
Bowl, drive around. The occasional acid flashback. Lindy hop and cocktails.

Music:

My musical history!

I listen to alot of different types of music, but no matter which type, it has a big importance in my life.
I grew up with 60's soul,the Beatles, Roxy Music, George Rafferty. I suppose I could've been worse off :)
My first active music selection was grunge and skate (Nirvana, Soundgarder, Pennywise, Refused, Tool).
Some britpop and indie entered my ears before I got hooked on harder stuff, emo and hardcore (Deftones, Hellacopters, LOK).
After that it was garage rock all the way (Gluecifer, Danko Jones, Monster magnet)...
which somehow led into a softer singer/songwriter side of me (16hp, Elliot Smith, Dave Matthews Band, Sigur Ros, Teitur, Christian Kjellvander).
Now, I listen to alot of 30s, 40s and 50s music: Big band swing jazz, rockabilly and such.

A few current favourites

Johnny Powers.
The shins.
Jimmy Lunceford.

Äntligen, mitt genombrott

Nu har det hänt! Jag var ute och flanerade på söööder igår, när en yngling smyger sig upp bakifrån. Jag funderar ett ögonblick på om jag ska lägga en drophouse roundkick i bakhuvudet på honom, men tän...
