About Me

Hi, Im Sam. Theres not much history to me apart from the following. I was born in 1988, in a cold, snowy, Harrogate in North Yorkshire. From there i lived in York for a good 6 years of my time on earth. Eventualy i moved down to the South Coast due to my Fathers Work Ladder. Shortly after moving down, I took a deep intrest in the guitar i had been playing since i was a mear 4 years of age. I figured sounds would occur if i played certan intervals on the fretboard. After a lot of trial and error, i got deeply into Hendrix. After all my life so far drenctched in classic rock, and Music in pure genral. I learnt "Voodoo Chile". This was a turning point in my life, at only the age of 8. As i carryed on growing up, i went to high school. In where i started wheely Boarding, and got deeply into the sport. So much so, when i was 15 i had an accident in where i shatterd my right humerus, ulner and radius at the elbow. Even to this day i dont have feeling in the outer elbow and little finger of my right side. I was off put, so i got back to guitar big time. Playing an acoustic guitar with rusty strings, with pins sticking out my arm wasnt much fun, but im glad i did it. Later on i leave school, turning 17. Later do i realise i have fallen for a Lovely Girl by the name of Charlotte Rowe. However, she doesnt seem to take my Love on, and after much termoil, and self realiseation. A year later we end up being quite a pair, and she has really lit up my life in so many ways, to a point in which i love her very much. In this time of meeting my romance, im in collage. Studying a BTEC Natinoal in Popular Music, where my Guitar Teacher "Bruce Knapp" taught me the basic starting points of guitar theory, a lesson which i will cherrish all my life. After being around numerous pub jam nights, and being in the local blues band i find myself talking to a man named Tony. Tony is now my producer/recording/sound engineer, and in not long time i will have an album! (or to put it correctly an E.P). I have a lot of people who i claim to be my friends, however there are some important few. And i havent mentioned you, its nothing personal and your included. Other people in my life however, are very important. Alec, who i met in science in year 7. I claimed i knew "tony hawk" and ever since then we have been a close partnership. Micheal Theobald, who i was with in primary school, a valuble friend of mine, who i dont see to often. We pretty much became king of many "a" video game, the sims, GTA and pokemon stadium. Rory Ault, this guy is a genius, however of late thers not been to much contact due to collage and all. This guy taught me how to smoke a joint, and also how to get "all weapons" on GTA3.. Richard Absalon, i only started to know him in the end of year 11. However, this guy is safe, he is honest, kind, funny and has a great fasion and music sence! My Parents (Dee and Phil), Who are great to me, My dad used to try and play Bob Dylan with me when i was 5, hes always pushed me, very motivated man. And my mother, who has a great eye for the arts, and music. Has sound advice on everything, and in the end. Shes always right! (which is annoying sometimes) Family, too many to mention. But there all crazy in a good way. One of them has grass growing in his kitchen sink! Digby, Dylan,Buzzby and Apollo, the dogs in my life. These guys all have the same begging ability, however there not like pokemon, and they dont fit inside pokeballs (unfortunatly) Charlotte and the Rowe Family, Charlotte as i said earlyer is a very special part of my life, whom i love. Her family however are increadibly nice to me, and they put up with me all the time. I love them all. Anyhow, thats a quick look at my life so far. Hope you enjoyed, as you can see theres plenty of other sections about me on this page. Have Most Fun!

My Interests

Music, thats all im intrested in. Everything i do, i cant stop thinking about music theory and guitar riffs. I listen to music 24/7(approx) i belive music is the reason to live, in acient times people had music. It expresses emotion, pride, cults, views, messages and many other things. I write alot of music, physicaly writing it to score, its a very useful tool. I also enjoy company of friends and family. I love the small pleasures in life, such as sunsets and Tea. However, im also a very supressed angry person. But that doesnt make me bad.

I'd like to meet:

Anybody, Everybody, to be inspired and to comunicate!, im not to botherd, im not a shallow person. I dont judge by looks or style. I hate sterotyping, but i also hate people who try to exploit a sterotype. It only hurts people. Anyhow, im a fairly chatty guy. So im up for meeting anyone, as long as they have some change and buy me a drink of course.

Music:

Everything,apart from Rap. To name a few faves, Paul Gilbert, Jimi Hendrix, Steve Vai, Joe Satriani, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, ELO, Queen, Rolling Stones, Adam Ant, Tim Sturdy (Local Genius), Frank Zappa, ...The list is almost Endless, like the universe. Theres so much stuff i love one day to the next. Being a musician, my taste in music is very diverse. Id like bands you wouldent expect, id also have challanging views about bands which most people like. But in the end, as i said before on this page, Music IS life!...
