MOD - A very British Phenomenon

About Me


Try the BEST MySpace Editor and MySpace Backgrounds at MySpace Toolbox !Ello. I'm Shelley, or Shell. Call me whatever the fuck you like I'm not all together fussed. I'm a proud Mod - 5ft 7, Blonde of hair and blue of eye. Big on my music. I 'eart anythin' with strings on, guitar and bass 'specally. Stick me in a room with them musicians and you'll've had to've sedated me with elephant tranquilizers to have gotten me out again.
In a Rock/Mod/Punk/Indie sort of band (Currently called The Revivals, but bound to change soon) Almost ready to go into the studio and get down an albums worth. 'Citin'!!
What do I like doin' most? Catchin' gigs or doin' gigs. Writin' music.
Into art, all those antics, but not in a stuck up, outragiously disturbin' pretentious way. I just like to paint and draw all things Pop Art.
Enjoyin' restorin' my VW bay window camper van though its been put on hold cause of the cold! If only I could drive it eh. I wants a mod scooter. Though I fear I might well kill myself if I ever tried to ride one.
Why don't you people ask me about me. Its easier....For me anyways
