My Interests

Music:

arcade fire, the decemberists, sufjan stevens, flaming lips, bowie, beatles, Eno, the VU, dj shadow, iron and wine, new order, massive attack, aphex twin, my bloody valentine, air, radiohead, guided by voices, interpol, jamc, kraftwerk, love, primal scream, M83, max richter, bjork, belle and sebastian, dylan, the postal service, pale saints, the coral, spiritualized, talking heads, william basinski, the beta band, the la's etc.

if you have something you think i might like, let me know!

Movies:

i find it harder to pick movies than music, guess i don't know them so well so maybe you should let me know what i'm missing out on.
garden state, city of god, R&J, the princess bride, donnie darko are a few though.

Television:

the mighty boosh is best new thing about (off to see it live soon!) and mostly lots of other comedies, the thick of it, black books, the office, day today, brass eye, nathan barley, pretty much anything armando ianucci has worked on is a pretty safe bet.

Books:

1984, to kill a mocking bird, the catcher in the rye, a clockwork orange and all the other usual GCSE books - they pick them for a reason.

Other than them it's kids books all the way, they're far better than most adult books. So, anything by Roald Dahl scores high, Treasure Island is great, swallows and amazons, the machine gunners, melvin burgess' junk is well worth checking out.

Still not read any harry potter, i should get round to doing that sometime?

Heroes:

Don't much like the idea of heroes, i guess everyone has the opportunity to be one. Then again maybe we each already are one to someone, it'd be nice to think so.
