tell me something that I've never heard before, tell me something that will make me love you more, t

About Me

I am the singer in Subliminal Girls.....I like guitars, I will help anyone in any band whatever the gendre if I think you are good and you are nice to me. If I think you are shit I probably won't say I just won't tell you are great. I am nice to everyone. I am famous for using the term savage to describe situations. I am totally approachable and not at all dodgy, i like people but don't suffer fools at all.I curse my paranoia on a daily basis and must learn to keep away from telephones and the internet when I am drunk.If you see me come up and speak to me I am friendly and not at all scary. Stage Jim and off stage Jim are two different people.KICK OUT THE J.A.M.S.

My Interests

friends, trans ams, drunken conversations, white russians, red stripe, curry, my wonderful and talented associates, drum tobacco, Sunday Club in Balham.....you should really try it if you like the finer things in life. Getting sick of the winter and the rain...i like being signed to weekender records because they re the loveliest people in the world and they pay for me to do the things that i love. Spontaneous silly romantic episodes.....I like these alot because I can write songs about them.

I'd like to meet:

Nice people, people who love live music, people in bands who want to do gigs and don't know where to start. Guitar junkies, film fans, people with no time on their hands who can always make some to have fun, ramones fans, townace drivers, artists (who know that art is actually not to be taken too seriously) punk rockers.........people with total belief without being disappointed when it doesnt all go their way, people who realise that from time to time life sucks the big one but there isn't much 5 cans of cold stella won't cure. Most importantly people who don't take themselves seriously. I don't want to meet any more people who like certain bands because they think they are cool.(Since I wrote the above statement I have met much less people who like bands because they think they are cool)Lou Reed, Simon Le Bon, more amazing people.

Music:

Mclusky, the clash, art brut, the pixies, ciccone, carter usm, the fades, punk rock, chris t-t, luxembourg, the boyfriends.......the video club more more more . neil young, new york dolls ramones ac/dc, THe Sex Pistols, The Rock and Roll Idiots, The Bridge Gang, Guns and Roses. Milk Kan, Papercuts, Untitled Musical Project, Guns and Roses Indelicates Thomas Tantrum Kim Wilde The Pet Shop Boys The Cure WEEKENDER RECORDS SHB ABDOUJAPEROV The Moths!

Movies:

The cannonball run, withnail and I, butch cassidy, goodfellas, this is spinal tap, The Big Lebowski......usual stuff really...

Television:

Father ted the young ones blackadder the fast show Peep Show

Books:

Anything about sex drugs and rock and roll, Wonderland Avenue by Danny Sugarman is my fave. HEAD ON Julian COpeThe DIRT Moteley Crue.........I seem to have forgotten to read quite a bit recently.

Heroes:
