About Me

Well, things have taken a dramatic turn around from last month, and I'm now a happily busy boy. done a large selection of random gigs, including a battle of the bands(!!!!), and I'm about to depart for a few days with Gogol Bordello & Skindread. I'm doing monitors for Skindread, its such a nice change working for a band that you actually liked BEFORE you went out with them! summer is sorted with a "rawk" band called Airbourne, and then I just gotta see whats round the corner...possibly some work with Dimu Borgir..but we'll have to wait and see on that one :0) MyGen Profile Generator Myspace Contact Tables

My Interests

they come and go. some stick around for a few years. one of the current ones is going into the woods with friends, and shooting my compound bow, but I do enjoy going for long walks in the countryside/hills/forests, Caving and mountain biking. A good friend of mine is currently atempting to teach me to play drums, I'm actually not too bad!!..

I'd like to meet:

I dont think there is anyone famous that I'd "love" to meet...doing this job, you realise very very quickly that famous people fall into 2 categories. 1) genuinly nice, down to earth people that do a job that happens to make them famous 2) stuck up c*~ts that truly belive that the world revolves around them, and anyone within 100 meter radius is their personal lackey to do whatever they demand.

Music:

is becoming more random as I get older. favourites include Iron Maiden, Strapping Young Lad, Lamb of God, Machien Head, Slayer, In Flames, At the Gates, Skindread, fantomas, Jethro Tull, Melt Banana and many, many more!..

Movies:

anything from Toy Story to Shawshank Redemption, via Ailens..

Television:

thanks to the wonder of the internet, i now download and watch at my lesure! I'm curently watching things like Prison Break, Lost, Heroes, CSI, Bones, Mythbusters, cowboy beebop and The Big Bang Theory, which is remarkably good for an American sitcom! ..

Books:

yes...i am a geek! i love my Si-fi. especially Peter F Hammilton ..

Heroes:

..

a bit of a rant
