So you like The Adicts, huh? Not your typical Men in Black. Peculiar music, let me tell you. It is crazy stuff and not to be messed with, it could take over your life! If you are thinking of going to see them for the first time, consider it long and hard before you come out to play. Before you know it, 4-3-2-1 you will be going home singing, buying their back-catalogue, a T-shirt or two and putting in a bulk order for white face-paint, NOT something you need. If you already have these things, then my warning comes too late. To be honest, if you're reading this page, you're already on dodgy ground, headed for breakdown, don't let go. Similarly, if you own footwear that carries their design or your skate deck's decorated with their logo, sure looks pretty but I'm sorry, there's no hope for you either, you're stuffed - you can shake, rattle, bang your head 'til the cows come home, you are Adicted - there is no easy way out.
I am the worst known case in England. I first saw The Adicts play in London back in 1982 when I was 20, (Too young, just a G.I.R.L.) and I have never gotten over it. Give me more. What am I to do? 24 years later, I play their music so loud there's (((DISTORTION))) That's happiness! I wear their stuff, stalk em relentlessly (so they have to keep changing their numbers) and have their photos all over my house, tis no Shangri-la. I live my entire life based around their principles, email them all night leaving no time for beauty sleep. In other words, organised confusion. Don't let this happen to you unless you know you can handle it.
It will screw up your love-life. Mine's been a real Rollercoaster! I'm not a bad girl - there were only two (this week), one was a youth called Johnnie. Johnnie was a soldier, he was always calling, calling. Every Saturday night we'd stay home, (ain't Saturday fun?) we'd listen to Rossini (in the background) hire a video, watch Clockwork Orange or The Sound of Music... suck jellybabies, get a Chinese Takeway or pizza (he was a cheese tomato man). We'd drink a lot - Vodka, mixed with Tango but he preferred The Toy Dolls AND he was two-timing me! They tell me she's a Rocker --- I'm gonna swat her! As for him, he can't dance anymore... Woke up this morning and he tried to runaway. How could he do it to me? You've gotta have eyes in the back of your head! Still, a man's gotta do...
Another time, I dated a lighthouse keeper, he was so sensitive, called me his angel and said 'I am yours', thought I was falling in love again (Demo 1984), maybe, maybe not but he was so jealous of my Adiction... Bad boy, he thought he could 'cure' me and asked me to change. We made an odd couple and I wasn't about to give up on my gorgeous droogie boys, I couldn't do it. We were both hurt... love sucks. How sad! Same old story - Hello, farewell, goodbye!
I don't want your sympathy but this lifestyle is not for the faint-hearted. Oh, it's all very well while you are 16, part of the younger generation but can you imagine being in your 40's and still under their spell? Probably not! If you are told that their CDs are harmless and it's only the vinyl and the live music that's adictive, this is bllx. Even an mp3 is enough to get you hooked for life. Well now I have warned you of the consequences, this is your life, the choice is yours. If you really do have to go see em, do it, enjoy it and do it again. JUST LIKE ME. Then tell me about it, hit me up, put yourself in my hands - make my day.
Get Aduh-Aduh-Aduh-Aduh-ADICTED!
OK - So how did you do?
If you scored between:
00 and 10 ------ Puh! You're not takin your adiction seriously
10 and 20 ------ It's just a matter of time
20 and 30 ------ No-one ever said it was gonna be easy...
30 and 40 ------ You are Adicted
40 plus --------- WELCOME TO MY WORLD!

My Interests

Profile Views Today:

I am interested in:
- EVERYTHING -
from The Big (((Bang)))
to Black Holes
(that sounds filthy and it's not meant to be at all!)
&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp

Music and Art
are my passions.

You humans fascinate me! I love to chat to people
from all over
the world,
particularly
if they are creative,
although I don't have
as much time
to do that as I'd like.
I've never been divorced
but then I've never been married.
I'm something of a workaholic,
I have no children,
I'm single and not looking.
That just about covers it!

I'm quite disturbed to have discovered that recently, someone has stolen my heart. It was NEVER part of the plan... now what do I do?

I'd like to meet:


Bohemians like you!

Dog Poo Bins

Dog poo bins... why are they always vandalised? Would you touch one if you didn't have to?
