Music, Football, Films, Food, Girls and Causing mischief. Pretty much in that order too. I play guitar and bass, and i used to have my own radio show @ uni, as well as Djing in the Student Union, so music takes up most of my time. We're also looking for djs, producers,contributors, reviewers, volunteers - people withthe ability to deliver, to laugh and to have plenty of good ideas to offer. Since last May we've held 5 big events, including @ Korova on July 2nd, combined with a live webcast. The Most recent being the Melting Pot gigs of late January, and soon there'll be an Acoustic show with Mellowtone, and Dj slots with Cheap Thrills. We also have our own residency @ Bar Ca Va on Wood St every Monday 9pm-2am. There will be more updates as to new events, and the broadcast times here on myspace in due course, as well as on our new website of www.platformradio.com from April 2nd. my e-mail address is [email protected] if you wanna pass it on to interested parties.I'm also a founder member of the Ill Communicators, along with my homies E.M.A and Tommy T. we're gonna blow up in 2007, watch this space! I'm into reading, even though i don't have time to read much anymore, and i'm slowly trying to wean myself off my TV dependance, but it ain't easy!
Anyone with something interesting to say, do or look at. I'm not looking to find a special somebody, i'm just intrigued as to what the rest of the world has to say about things. The only barriers i would put up would be to narrow-minded people - if you're not willing to appreciate or try and understand the other side of the coin - any coin - then i'm probably not the person to make friends with. If you wanna find out about cool new stuff from all corners of the world, or wanna chat about something that's inspiring, or really pissed you off, then come see me.#NB: I have been forced to add this extra section to stem the tide of waste that has currently been sent my way. to clarify - I'M NOT INTERESTED IN 'MAKING MY FORTUNE FROM HOME' AS A MYSPACE ENTREPENUER, I DON'T WANT A 10% OFF CARD FROM MACY'S AND I'M PERFECTLY HAPPY WITH THE SIZE OF MY PENIS. ALL FRIENDS REQUESTS FROM PEOPLE ASSOCIATED WITH THESE SUBJECTS WIL BE DENIED. ANYONE WHO ADDS COMMENTS OF THIS NATURE TO MY PAGE WILL FEEL MY WRATH.#

Music Video Code provided by MySpace Video Code Tv's a funny one for me. I've spent my whole life watching it, but its a bit of a love-hate relationship. when its good - The Simpsons, Seinfeld, Monkey Dust, Bremner, Bird and fortune, Green Wing - then it can be more compelling, and more real than any film you could name. But There's SO MUCH SHIT ON TV , that i have to turn the tv off i disgust. Unfortunately, the list for hated tv programmes would be even longer than my music list, so i'll just stick to what i like. These days i mostly watch Channel 4, be it drama like Sugar Rush, or Documentaries, or the news. I'm trying not to desert the BBC, but they. like the Labour Government, are becoming increasingly hard to trust. My housemates would say all i do is watch sport all day, but that's only true on weekends.
I implore anyone who hasn't yet to read No Logo by Naomi Klein, i enjoyed it but it also made me really angry. My fave books are probably Trainspotting and American Psycho, the Biographieas of Tim Leary, Bill Hicks and John Peel well as Down and out in London and Paris by George Orwell. Anyone whose ever had money troubles should read that book. I must admit to not reading as much as i used to or should do, but i do aim to turn it around.
My heroes from Childhood are John Barnes and John Peel, but as an adult anyone who inspires me through something they've done, or even said to me, i find heroic. As cheesy as it is to say my dad, I'd be a liar if i left him out. You all have him to thank for the person you're reading about.
