I'm only here for the music - to find new bands and to help spread the word about those I already like. If you're in a band, go ahead and ADD ME! I'll listen to you all - can't promise to love you all but I will listen. I'd love to hear from anyone with similar musical taste who can recommend new bands for me.
I'm slowly adding links to my (constantly evolving) 'favourite bands' list so that you can click straight to their sites.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

On planet earth, more of my heroes and heroines. On planet myspace, just bands and other music-loving gig goers, people with musical recommendations (especially other powerpop lovers), and folks who like taking photos at gigs.

My Blog

why the radio makes me gaga

as my friend tony said recently: "I don't really do radio - I like to be in charge of my music."  i couldn't have put that better myself, it's one of the reasons why i never touch that dial....

really loving this album

'brassbound' by the ordinary boys.  i listened to samples from their previous album and it didn't grab me.  but this one's a knockout.  i read a review that said they'd matured on this ...
