About Me

I'm basically a two dimensional kind of guy. If the conversation isn't about music or Lambrettas then i'll probably start snoring during it. The music i like is varied, but i mostly listen to sixties garage, northern soul, ska, 70's punk and surf. I'm not one of those people who can say that they can listen to anything, if i don't like something it means that i could quite possibly murder the DJ playing it, the artist, the record company etc etc. Oh! did i mention that i was prone to exaggeration?
