About Me

Righty ho, names Dan, I'm 22 and recently graduated from Sheffield Uni, just started life in the real world, working as a staff nurse at Barnsley Hospital. Spare time goes on my girlfriend Fiona, my band Dead Man's Finger and going out round town for shandies etc. Support the mighty Reds also known as Barnsley FC Create or get your
very own MySpace Layouts

My Interests

Music, playing bass guitar in DMF, going to watch the Reds, going to the pics, playing football (ankles permitting), going to see bands, going to Leeds Fest.

I'd like to meet:

Probably just bands rather than specific people, Nofx, Descendents and the like, Oh and Mr Homer J, what a legend!.. ..
