About Me

Hi .. it's just me .. Paul McConkey ...
Born and Bred in Belfast,Northern Ireland.
Jed was my nickname at school, funny story about the nickname though;

I was sitting in Clarkes Bar on the Fordham Road, in the Bronx, one Saturday afternoon getting smashed .. as you do when you are 18 (long time ago), .. & this fella starts talkin' to me, passin' the time of day and .. he says ..

"Anyway man! What's your name?"

.. "Jed", I said.

He replies, "Hey cool man! That must be short for Jedadiah, right?"

.. "No, its short for Paul!!", I replied!!

~~~~~~~~~~

Enough ramblin' ... a little background!

Well, it all started when I picked up the guitar ...
