About Me

Please visit our website....: http://www.thephonographicsociety.com

You may know me as Andrew, as fastasleepclub (on various web forums), or for Curious-Blue, my former radio show on KAOS Olympia Community Radio, 89.3FM (between 1997-2007). Either way, they're all just me. I have been called the 'Disco King of Olympia', but also just about every rude or offensive name you could likely think of (and in more than one language). People never really know when they will see me, or hear from me, but they usually seem pleased when they do. Reclusive, but in no way exclusive - I'm for the people, and I ride the bus daily to prove it. I'm an acquired taste, hopefully in the same way as Lime Pickle or Lemon Curd. In my spare time, I'm a DJ selector, record collector, and upful respector. I am gainfully employed as a trouble-shooter and trouble maker. And as the old saying goes, if you trouble trouble, it will trouble you....

My Interests

Music, Art, Film, Radio Monitoring, Geography, Public Transport, Whisky, Technology (old and new) - and the endless possibilites for their mutual interaction.

I'd like to meet:

Mark E. Smith or Serge Gainsbourg for a drink, David Mancuso or Bill Brewster for a party, Steve Foster for captaining Brighton & Hove Albion in their finest hour, Jean Seberg for hair compliments, Tim Quirke to talk about old times, a talking cat for explanations of all those feline tendencies I'd like to know the truth about, and anyone and everyone who knows me for a chat and a drink some time. Or several drinks, even.
