About Me

"I'm a picker, I'm a grinner, I'm a lover and I'm a sinner. I play my music in the sun".
I'm Andy the son of one of Birmingham's greatest ever rock guitar players (dont ask me about this it saddens me). At the moment and for the past 4 years I've been living my life exactly how i want to live it (which seems to be a problem for the chavs which dominate this society). I'm a quiet, shy person (that will be your first impression anyway) but If u can be bothered to get to know me a little longer You'll see I can be many things, I'm generally mellow, chilled and happy but sometimes I can be slightly hyper and crazy, You can talk to me about anything. I'm very liberal minded and will always do my best to answer any questions. Ok basically I live my life for music and ..music with soul), playing my guitar, listening to music, writing music, lying in the park like a hippy in the summer, getting too drunk and above all the work Im putting into getting my band (The Tailshakers or you may know us as E-Street Shakedown) gigging properly and showing you all what we got! I'd like to say im happy but im not all the time because i know the prejudice that awaits just around the next corner in my own neighbourhood from these simple minded fools. Im like Marlon Brando in the Wild One except i cant just jump on a bike and move somewhere else, I'm stuck where I am it looks like, It isn't all bad though. Anyway to sum up "About me" I'm not from this third stone from the Sun, I'm a voodoo child and i need less of people dictating how I should be. Im a student at Kings Norton 6th form, which is the worst place on Earth (to anyone who goes there) I am not what you think of me, I am not some fuck up whos got mental disorders and cuts himself and is fucked up in the head. Nor am I anything to do with the "sleaze" scene, nor am I the steretypical rocker. I am none of these things, I am a free person who believes everybody should have their chance to express themselves and feel the same freedom that I feel sometimes. I dress eccentrically because i feel that best represents me, so what if i dont pull it off. I'm romantic, intelligent (my iqs 144 so...) and got a sense of humour like fuck! I am me and no one else (I know everyone says that but its true for me) I have no problem with being labelled as long as you label me right, just label me as "Andy" and I'll be happy, it's when I am categorised that I get offended as I base my image, personality and general perception on something that I would like to think is unclassifiable (in a good way I hope lol). Anyway You've obviously added me if ur reading this so hello and peace.

My Interests

I should give a special shout out to my best mate and brother (not by blood) Jesse James. Since we first met at a bus stop outside our school (I'd seen him and thought his 'fro was flash! But had never really spoken to him) and shared a pack o' Marlboro Reds and had a massive convo about Rock and Roll we been best friends. Unfortunately our friendship is long distance now but I know next time we get together it's gonna be one hell of a time. My other interests include not that much that doesnt involve, or is in some way connected with, music. But when you love music like I do it does take over your whole life. Through the music of my Rock and Roll/Blues/Soul band "The Tailshakers" (www.myspace.com/thetailshakers) I would like to express everything which affects me, such as prejudice, segregation, unity, image, roots seriously everything. Thats what music should be all about anyway, expression. My interests are in Peace and Love and expression through music. From very early turn of the century blues to maybe even a bit of modern day metal (anything that moves me really). I also enjoy socialising with friends, songwriting, having deep philosophical conversations with anyone who will listen and just generally having a laugh and acting about ten years old. Again though, I am about Peace and Love. Peace be unto you...

I'd like to meet:





There are many people who I'd like to meet. Obviously I'd like to meet my favourite rock stars (but so would everyone so its not important to mention that). One day i would LOVE to meet native Americans as I think they are amazing people and believe in the natural beauty of the Earth that we are killing. I'd like to meet intelligent, beautiful philosophical people from any culture or corner of the Earth, or simply down to earth fun time people who you can have a laugh with down the pub. I love meeting new people although I am very shy at first.

Heroes:

I have many different heroes for many different reasons. One of my heroes is my own father who has massively inspired many aspects of my life. Obviously most of my favourite rock stars are heroes to me, some of the most important and influential are Jimi Hendrix, every member of the Rolling Stones, Ronnie Van Zant of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Chuck Berry...well I could go on forever but I also really look up to anyone who can be different and expressive and will challenge societies flaws, i respect them even more so if they can do it with strength of character. Below is a video of a QUITE cool band which are put into the "sleaze" bullshit catagory, they are far from being heroes to me but I find the video quite catchy,
The L.A. Guns.Fuckin check out the L.A. Guns!! .. width="425" height="350" ..HEROES:
