About Me

TRAILER FOR 'JIVE JIVE JIVE' DVD 2008'YOU TUBE' FAME AT LAST lol!!! THANKS TO VIRGIN MEDIA. SCHOOL OF COOL - ROCK 'N' ROLLKav looking hilariously young in his oscar winning performance of 'Jive After Five' This made me laugh sooo much!!!Have loved Rock 'n' Roll, Do-wop for as long as I can remember but my big love is 50's Rockabilly..(that does NOT mean I'm into The Stray Cats)
I D.J,work and I live with my best friend Kav Kavanagh (he's my lodger ha ha ha ha!!!) We teach 'proper' 1950's style Jive (check out www.jiveafter5.com) We also run Higham Rock n Roll Club, a monthly Rock n Roll Jam Session and various other ventures together (www.jivejivejive.co.uk)I collect vinyl and cd, cant get enough of it and love discovering stuff I haven't heard.Couldn't live without my music collection, I love classic cars, jiving and meeting new people. I've also just discovered since adopting an abandoned Kitty that 'cats' are fab and I have turned into a 'saddo' lol that can't stop showing people pics of her!!

My Interests

MUSIC,MUSIC,MUSIC! I'm out most weekends, mostly in Kent and Essex seeing Rockin' bands (I've also got badly lost :( twice going to The Ace Cafe, took 2 and three quarter hours!!, and Crondall Rock n Roll Club, slightly less 2 and a quarter lol!!). Gretsch Guitars just about anything 50's whether Vintage or Retro... I jive and stroll, wish i could bop but can't....I also help Sir Kav Kavanagh teach 50's Jive and help run Higham Rock n Roll Club (Hermitage Road, Higham, Kent- 2nd Saturday of the month)...and yes I agree with Malcolm Chapman that working with Kav is deserving of a Care in The Community Award ha ha ha.... Last but not least I have a beautiful daughter called Sian, who's a funny,great, intelligent kid......I found a long lost friend Duke who introduced me to Myspace and I blame him totally for the 4ft ironing pile and untidy house since doing so. Suzy Q x

I'd like to meet:

ROCKIN' FRIENDS, anyone with a passion for music, a sense of humour (warped is good!)Oh and don't be offended if i deny your 'FRIEND REQUEST' its just that I have no intention of moving to Zimbabwe or to a desert island without my mobile phone, my jukebox or my record collection!!.....AND IT WOULD BE REALLY NICE if you just write and say 'Hi' etc if you want me to add you to my Friends.... as for Bands...if you're NOT Rockin' don't bother and sorry that doesn't include Country and Psychobilly....yes I love Music but read what sort I like!! I'm not even bothering to reply to people now who are TWATS unless I feel particularly aggressive, get a life!

I want to meet like minded people... oh and MR ALMOST RIGHT (preferably with a Quiff!...make yourself known!)
