I love going to watch live music, especially bands I've never seen before in tiny venues.. which ties in quite well with the fact that I am a drummer.. I've been playing for ten years and have loved every band that I've played in. I like outdoorsy stuff too like kayaking, hiking, rock climbing... When the opportunity presents itself i'll indulge..
Anyone know a band that need a good drummer..?
queens of the stone age, ladytron, von bondies, john spencer blues explosion, the stones, the beatles, the zutons, metric, velvet underground, soundgarden, pearljam, libertines, dirty pretty things, muse, radiohead, nirvana, interpol, kasabian, rage against the machine, led zeppelin, cream, maximo park, garbage, arctic monkeys, jefferson airplane, death in vegas, we are scientists, howling bells, mazzy star, roxy music, soulwax, powderfinger, john cooper clarke, editors... so, Indie/Rock.. I think that would have been easier to write...??!!
I'm quite a big fan of old school black and white war films, as well as some of the new ones.. Zulu must be the best film I've ever seen.. it's so quotable..!! I quite like wierd films, or stuff with a historical background.. Court room dramas should not be made. Under any circumstances ever. Apart from Let 'Em Have It. That was genius. And I ramble on.. but you keep reading...
I don't really watch a great deal of TV, but when I do I tend to look for for something lighthearted like Scrubs or Friends.. (something I don't really have to pay attention to...) Or MTV2 actually..I don't do police dramas or hospitals.. no no no! Watching people get help sorting out their house that they fucked up isn't a great choice for me either.. Peep Show, Monkey Dust, Modern Toss, Have I Got News For You...
schindlers ark, where eagles dare, hms ulysese, don't tell mum i work on the rigs she thinks im a piano player in a whorehouse, does anything eat wasps?,long way round, the timewaster letters (that book is in fact genius), am about to read the ivy chronicals...
john bonham, the guy was the godfather of rock drumming... not to mention an olympic binge drinker...
