About Me

My name is Glenn i am 28 years old, of this much i'm certain. Born in Chelmsford Essex England at the tail end of November'78 to parents Geoffery Peter Ward & Linda Anne Gooch. I'm their only child.I Thank my Mother for taking me to the cinema in 1983 to see Return Of The Jedi! Its the reason why my imagination still gives me hope & why i spent alot of hard earned money on plastic toys!I have Dad to thank for bringing me up on a musical diet of Hendrix,Clapton & Floyd. These are the foundations for my ongoing love of real musicianship based music. Its funny how the wheel has turned full circle as i've now introduced my Dad to such artists as John Mayer, Jeff Buckley & Dave Matthews, who are a constant source of inspiration to me.I've lived in towns and on farms. Acted in plays & competed in sporting events. I've played music in back gardens and city bars. I taken alot of pictures, simple things dont go unnoticed. I've probably spent more time watching movies, listening to music & playing Playstation than sleeping. I've been cutting hedges in the rain for the past six and a half years. I'm now waiting on a change that i know only i can make. I've met alot of people and made some good friends...i hope to make more.I am Currently staying in Canada on a years working Visa! Should be an experience. I will post updates of my little adventure on here from time to time. Apologies for any delay s at responding to messages. Create or get your
