The Devil may care, but I don't give a fuck!

About Me

Rogue, Pirate, Vagabond, call me what you will, all I am is a Rock n' Roll Rover! I love Rock n Roll, Swashbuckling, and Formula 1, especialy the 80's/early 90's, when cars had turbo's and Mansell was King! I'm the Bass player in Hazel May and the Hashish Tramps and I love my job. My Girlfriend Hazel (singer in the band) rocks my world cos she just rocks, and she's damn sexy! Lil boy's, back off, I'm a dab hand with cold steel! lol. I play a Midnight blue Mexican Fender Jazz ( I've boycoted American ones, and anyway, mexicans make better guitars, it's in their blood! ) through a Trace Elliot AH250gp11 1986 model, and one of my various Marshall cabs. I like Booze, dont matter what (well, I aint a fan of cider like, but I am partial to the old Rum). I love being a tramp, especially writing songs with Dan and Hazel, cos you never quite know what to expect, or what we actually remember! Still, It's all fun. As for Bomber, I couldn't ask for a better rhythm section partner, make's it all hard, fast and heavy. Nice! Out side the band, I'd also like to be a published song writer, writing cheesy shit Euro-pop for a laugh, and sell my music ... Any one want to talk? [email protected]
