About Me


I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM..Hulloooo! La la la. I'm 25, and live in wonderful Stoke Newington/Upper Clapton/Hackney.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet Bob Dylan, but not now. I'd like to meet him in '65 or '66 but that would require some kinda time machine. There's no point in talking to him now that he's an old bugger with a shit album out.I've already met some people I admire. David Byrne was more scared than I was, I coulda have spoken to Morrissey but chickened out, and he'd probably just call me a chubby cunt anyway. Meeting Springsteen would be mint. Meeting Larry David would be good too.

Books

Femi Kuti- Barbican Centre 15th February 2007

Due to sheer exhaustion, I almost didn't make it to the Barbican last night to catch Femi Kuti and Postive Force. Having promised myself 40 winks, i set my alarm for half 7, but awoke at quarter past ...

Arcade Fire Feb 2nd 2007

Porchester Hall is a lovely little venue to the West of Paddington and just off Royal Oak tube. The interior is a little like Koko, emblazoned with red and chandeliers. I'd never heard of it before th...

All is shite, on new year's day

I don't remember too much from the New Year's Eve other than once more I drank too much and got robbed on my way home, down Kentish Town Road I think. At least two guys, and everything ...

2006

Seeing as i've got no work to do yet, I think i'll reflect on the past year. This year i've started being a lazy student again and managed to blag my way through two modules. I've had a relation die o...

Curse myself for not getting to Wembley earlier on Friday night as I realise that Lily Allen is supporting and all i hear is the last one a half songs. Damn annoying, and I paid the price of taking th...
