I LOVE playing my guitars, going to live shows, photography and film making.
I also like the finer things in life, like being able to smile knowing that I could be much worse off than I am... The simple pleasures
WOOHOO!!!

Burton on Burton was a great read, it had a beautifully written foreward aswell.
I also enjoyed The Da Vinci Code and Angels and Demons both by Dan Brown...
MY MUM (she put up with me didn't she)
My other heroes include:
'What will our generation be remembered for?
Internet - Yes.
War on Terror - Yes.
Wouldn't it be great if we were also remembered for being the ones for set about making poverty history.'
Bono & Geldof
(their fight for justice and equality has been and continues to be amazing)
Then there are musical heroes that I look up to, I'd name them all but it would take way to long
Mr. Burton & Mr. Depp & Mrs Bonham Carter
(the way they play, or in their cases, don't play the Hollywood game, for following their own thing)
and also the people out in the world who make a difference by helping others, especially the 'dedicated army of quiet volunteers'
