About Me

1. Firstly I would like to thank (read heavy sarcasm in this line) the person who infiltrated our last myspace account, causing it to be deleted – you sad little prick!2. If you wanna know our full detailed history, then it's on our web site, the address of which is over on the left of this page. Please use the back button on your browser if you read any of the pages as some of the hyper links are a bit fucked up. It's a home made balls up!3. We’re just trying to make our own music for the fun of it and not for any other reason – though I admit it is pleasing when someone says something nice about it. -- So please say something nice!4. We are following the punk ethic of doing our own thing regardless. It's music that is being written on a cheap guitar in our living rooms.5. There is no pretension in it for sure; it’s just straight up and down Rock Music. Yes it is fun doing this and we take pride in what we’re doing and try to make the best of each song we can within it’s limitations and our financial situation.6. We can’t be described as real musicians by a long way but I do believe what we’ve come up with is creditable – I mean if you gave an electric guitar to Eric Clapton you’d expect him to come up with something good, but if you gave one to a Caveman (me!) – well what did you expect?7. What I’m trying to say It's all relative; ability wise we’re closer to Neanderthal man than modern day man - OK?8. We recorded our first album last year and are at the moment working on our second, but it's taking a bloody long time!9. Thanks to our producer Dave MacMullan of Mackeys Music in Bristol and the young players who played on our stuff: Charlie Torrible of the Hitups, Ben Lowrey, Wendelynne Heelis. And last but not least 'THE SONS OF THE SIRENS' Jake Read, Josh Read, Sean Pearce

My skill as a guitarist/musician
