My Interests

I work a lot, play a little bass, go to a gig, enjoy a recreational ale from time to time...I buy comics, or did - I've fallen off the comic wagon a little bit recently. I really like buying musical instruments. When I say I play a little bass, I mean occasional. My basses are all of normal size or equivalent.

I'd like to meet:

Pretty much anyone. As you may be able to see, I am an asshole or, as my girlfriend likes to call me, an arrogant wanker. In light of this I might not be overly chatty.I'll only add you if a) your band is actually good, b) I know you or c) you have GREAT chat. Ideally you would satisfy at least two of those three criteria.

Music:

I like loads of stuff! I like punk, I like Oi, I like two-tone, I like reggae, I like ska, I like rock & roll, rockabilly, folk, hardcore, industrial, new wave, country and a whole lot of other stuff!

Movies:

There's a load of films I like. Anything I can quote is a good bet (Withnail & I, Blues Brothers, Anchorman, Sexy Beast...), Hudson Hawk, anything with Al Pacino...loads of stuff. Oh, and Batman Begins. I like Batman.

Television:

I don't really watch telly, so I'm on the box sets! I love Everybody Loves Raymond, King Of Queens, Family Guy, My Name Is Earl and The Prisoner.

Books:

Anything by Bill Bryson, Will Self, Kurt Vonnegut Jr. or Hunter S. Thompson.

Heroes:

Paul Simonon, Danny McCormack & Matt Freeman mainly - props also to lots of other folk.
