WE'RE NOT STUPID AND REFUSE TO PRETEND WE ARE.

About Me

We are Andrew Quinn and Patrick Duggan who under the guise of "MODERN LOVE" put on alternative bands and djs in Greenwich, Brixton and New Cross which is basically an empire. we've been doing what we do for about 4 years with varying degrees of success. we've blown up friends amps in empty pubs, been chased out of venues by angry rockers unhappy with hearing show me heaven by maria mckee and almost been arrested for arguing about the merits of unsigned bands in the street. We always show people a good time and fully expect to one day completely take over the world of music Tony Wilson style. So come down and see us before we get too big for our bloody boots and refuse to speak to anybody unless they've played earls court or graced the cover of Vogue I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

Blondie, The Velvet Underground, . . . stop. So fuck it. . .The Rapture, Bob Dylan, Le Tigre, Vitalic, Interpol, The White Stripes, Art Brut, The Slits, The Supremes, The Pop Group,!!!, Devo, Per Ubu, The Ark, Pixies, Sonic Youth, Hot Chip, Klaxons, CSS, Shit Disco, The Band, E.L.O, Supertramp, Forward Russia, Hall & Oates, Phil Collins, Clap your Hahds Say Yeah, Primal Scream, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Black Dice, Fever, The Juan Maclean, M.I.A, XTC, Life Without Buildings, Wire, Rocket Science, The Housemartins, Kings of Leon, MC5, Iggy & the Stooges, Soft Cell The Strokes, Soulwax, Bruce Springsteen, New Order, Roxy Music, Pavement,Outhud, Postal Service, Joy Division, David Bowie and anything thats challenging or slightly hard on the ear eg les georges leningrad, PIL or the walkmen

C.S.I, they blatantly invent technology to catch every single criminal in 50 minutes. what the hell is that about? Hercule "they didnt bank on the amazing mind of" Poirot . . .oh and Harry Hill does a kids show on sunday mornings which is absolutely killer.

anything by Irvine Welsh, George Orwell, Nicola Barker, ways of seeing by John Berger and in cold blood by Truman Capote is possibly the most amazing book ever written. NOT DAN FUCKING BROWN!!!
