About Me

Well what to say! My name is Roy and I am from Burnley in Lancashire. A typical old northern mill/mining town - not much going on but I like it.

I have 3 wonderful children, Reece (12), Tyler (10) & Lily (2).

I am also the front man for the rock band Exit State (see top friends) and that just eats up my life outside of having fun with my family.

I spent 12yrs in the Royal Navy in weapons & combat which I loved but gave it up to be a rockstar.

Currently working hard with Exit State, hopefully it wont be long now before we see some success.

I am an avid fan of football with my teams being both Burnley & Manchester Utd (born in Manchester you see before you ask).

My Interests

I obviously love guitar and singing, but I am really interested in all things unexplained like the supernatural, extra-terrestrial activity etc etc
I really enjoy long, drunken debates on that subject matter and hearing about peoples personal experiences.

I'd like to meet:

I would love to sit down in a room with James Hetfield, Dave Grohl, Mike Patton, Billy Idol, Bruce Dickinson and Frank Sinatra and talk about all the aspects that I think makes them awesome performers and if they could imaprt any wisdom onto me.
