Nothing special about me. People are Special to me.Loves: water, moon, night, stormy weather, cold days, accents and voices, mouths and eyes, poetry. I need music in my life. Small things and gestures. Uncomfortable with the grandiose!
I try to make someone happy every day.
Live life for the day - you never know what is waiting round the corner - you only get one crack at it!!!!!!!!
You never get a second chance to make a first impression.!!!

Podfest is a showcase for independent artists and bands looking to raise their profile in the industry and gain exposure to new audiences. It takes place once a month, every first Thursday night at The Purple Turtle, Mornington Crescent, Camden. Our aim is to provide artists and bands with the network of resources that will help them put together projects, make inroads into the industry and gain new fans. We see this as a positive and creative relationship with artists and bands rather than just a gig. As such PODFEST EVENTS ARE UNPAID. If however we can see that artists are prepared to promote themselves well, then we'll also do our bit and offer that artist or band a nominal guarantee on door takings. We want to feature our artists here at Podfest so an evening will normally see 3 or 4 artists/bands playing from between 20 mins to half an hour for solo and accoustic acts to between 30 and 40 mins for bands. Of course this format is not set in stone and can vary if circumstances require. We generally allow solo artists/duos to bring 2 free guests, whilst bands are allowed up to 4 guests. The venue is in the heart of Camden and just across from Mornington Crescent tube station. Backline can be provided although we prefer for bands to communicate with each other to share equipment as necessary.

2005 was a year of gathering momentum. "I'm So In Love With You" was transformed into a house track entitled "So In Love" - TMD feat J5, (J5 being his cool, down with tha kids, street name), and received around 20 plays on Radio One Aug-Sept 05. The track was endorsed by DJ's Spoony, Coco, Da Bank and Pete Tong, who kindly put it on his Essential Selection Compilation 2005. The track has been licensed by major dance label "Hed Kandi" (Ministry of Sound) and features on the excellent 'Beach House' Compilation as well as the world famous 'Hed Kandi Summer Sampler' - both available from all good record stores. 'So In Love' is due for full international release ... at some point.

You chose green eyes.
You are a very fun person to be around.
You appreciate all the little things in life, even if it's something like a soft pillow, or a certain tree. You can also see the good in people too, and like them for it. You have many dreams, and you want to fullfill them all before you die. You are also mysterious, and secretive, and guys/girls are attracted to you for it.
TRY The Eye color personality test
brought to you by Quizilla

RESULTS OF MY INKBLOT TEST!!!:
..
You approach the world with reserve because unconsciously, and perhaps consciously, you like to be in control. You keep your emotions to yourself and you may seem mysterious or enigmatic to others. You're often very cautious about truly expressing yourself. Even people who have known you for some time may find it hard to get close to you. Your psyche is very deep and rich; the more you learn about it, the more you will understand who you really are.
