About Me

Johnny lives in South London. He studies English Literature & Language, and isn't above playing the guitar, taking some pictures in his spare time, or talking in the third person to make himself seem more prestigious.
Johnny comperes an open mic night in The Leather Exchange (a pub in SE1) called Pot Luck & Humble Pie. It runs every other Sunday, and it won't cost you a penny to get in. New faces are always welcome, so why not come on over sometime? You can find a link to the profile in Johnny's top friends.

Johnny also writes poetry. You can often find him performing said poems at Y Tuesday - an excellent poetry club in Clerkenwell. Come to that too, it's well worth it. You'll probably be inspired to buy Johnny a pint and a bag of crisps for introducing him to such an invigorating new approach to culture in London. If so, London Pride and a bag of cheese and onion please!
