About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace) Born in London England, singin' and slapin' rockin' sounds as i came into the world. Held close by my mother, then droped as she said "bugger this im off down the pub for a pint"!



And as they say the rest is history!

Founding member and still with the Uptown Savages. Some ok(Wild'n'Frantic, Swingin' Kools), some bloody crap........eeerrr best not, but all were fun at the time!
