Music, all kinds of music, specially roots music, drums, drumming, good food, good turkish food, good indian food, good mallorcan food, good spanish food, some good italian food aswell everynow and then, cooking (not as often as i'd like), good wine, horticulture, films... i like talking to people in places where music is not louder than my voice; in the other hand, i love music venues, Bull&Gate sort of venue, in fact i like any music venue that sounds good (i dont know that many of them...)
i dislike people who talk in music venues, i also dislike music festivals, superstores, camden market, overcrowded places in general, supertrendy clubs, NME, oldstreet-electro...
I have much respect for people who work making things with their own hands, i like honest people, i like people that know why they do what they do.
i dont' really like my space.
Anyone with the same interests i guess... anyone really...
Talk to me.
Drummers we talk, sometimes.
