About Me

I was a professional touring musician up til the last few years when I've been concentrating on being a father....... and providing PA systems and sound engineering for all these amazing bands around Leeds and beyond. Music controls my life. I like Abba, I love Zappa and My Bloody Valentine sit nicely in the middle. I play bass, mandolin and keyboards with Led Zeppalike - a tribute band, obviously.

My Interests

Loud music and peace and quiet but not total silence (I have tinnitus, since birth actually). Saving the planet so there's some left for the kids. I spend far, far too much time talking bollox on the LMS forum.

I'd like to meet:

Stacey more often than ships that pass in the night, especially when we only collide once a month...........

Music:

Loads. Baroque and early 20th century 'classical' music esp. Holst and Elgar. The Beatles, Motorhead, Earth Wind And Fire, Bilge Pump, Middle Man, The Somatics, The Young Professionals, Yes, The Kinks, Genesis before Gabriel left, A Tribe Called Quest, RATM, Weather Report, The Police, Eminem, Merz, Pigeonhed, Oasis (first 2), Joni Mitchell, Cocteau Twins, Robochrist, This Et Al, Squarepusher,Aphex Twin, Magoo( from the East-Side, of England), DJ Food, Van Halen (up to 1984), Doves,The Blue Nile, Wheat (not wheatus)..... that'll do for now.........oh yeah The Go! Team, Super Furry Animals.......Benjamin Zephaniah, Gil Scott-Heron, Ivor Cutler, John Cooper Clarke is that classed as music or poetry? Speech is a kind of music anyway innit? When Polly Harvey talks its music to my ears.......oh and proper folky stuff like Planxty and Last Night's Fun..... not forgetting Thee Silver Mount Zion Memorial Orchestra And Tra-la-la Band....and Rush. That'll do for now........no it won't..........Melt-Banana, Cornelius, Ryuichi Sakamoto...nearly left out a whole country there
