Take Which Mighty Boosh Character Are You? today!
Created with Rum and Monkey 's Personality Test Generator . You're Vince, owner of fantastic hair and a fondness for bright colours and soft fabrics. Nephew of a french duke, you were roped into working at the Zooniverse when your good friend Howard took you out of school, saying that GCSEs werent important. Your life's ambition is to be in a band, frontman obviously, using your ability to pull shapes.

I'd like to meet:

Jimi Hendrix, Leonardo Da Vinci, Jim Morrison, Oscar Wilde. Used to want to meet Angelina Jolie, but now I think she's gone a bit weird with this whole 'rainbow family' thing.People, many people; freaks and geeks; stoners and straight edge...musos, disturbed poetic types, mad crazy bouncy people...If you're racist, sexist or homophobic then fuck off...don't even bother wasting my time.

Music:

I love all good music and some bad :-). My taste is eclectic, from jazz to punk. There's way too many artists I like. I love trip-hop! Flogging Molly to the Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs. Bessie Smith to NIN. Madonna to Aimee Mann. Massive Attack and The Prodigy to Tiger Army and K.T Tunstall. Arctic Monkeys to Fairport Convention. Esthero, Bjork, Tricky, Massive Attack, Sol Seppy, Portishead. I'm one of those rare people who admits to liking folk music, although not all of it. I worked on this lovely ladys album recently, check out her page and listen to her moving songs, they're brutally and refreshingly honest- 'http://www.myspace.com/tammymadwoman'..START BZOINK.COM SURVEY CODE
