About Me

idiot love was a band, then it wasn't, it was me. i live in a council flat on a housing estate in fareham, and don't claim to be anything else than a bloke on a low income making music on a computer, for the hell of it. i'm not in this for money, i just want to communicate with people. yes, i know the photos make me look a twat. but a very kind and talented man called simon kitchener said it was a prerequisite for being a rawk gawd, so they're staying. i was "diagnosed" paranoid schizophrenic in 1987, so i've spent a lot of time in mental hospitals, but i take the shit my psychiatrist gives me, and i've been relatively stable for 4 years. i'd like to thank gordon mcintyre from the band ballboy, for his generosity and support. he mailed me when i was at a very low ebb, and i wouldn't be doing this without the insight he's given me. and thanks to everyone who's been supportive. and shown an interest in my stuff, it's all appreciated.i find clash tribute bands a mockery of everything strummer stood for, so die please.eric.
