About Me


I'm Dan, A Histoy student orginally from Canvey Island (sounding very interesting so far) I study at Essex uni in colchester, where I spend most of my year residing
I've just finished my second year, looking forward to the third, dreading the long vastness that is summer!
Dan Likes; Gibson guitars, despite not being able to play them
Music, be it live or on c.d ( but preffeably vinyal) like most genres, but I'm really into late 70's punk. And the clash are the greatest thing ever
Going out, getting slightly drunk and dancing like a bit of an idiot. Guys don't look good dancing anway...
Dan Dislikes; People that wear t-shirts of bands they've never heard of ( the amount of times I've seen people in clash or rolling stones t-shirts and tried to start a conversation with them, only to find out they've got no idea what I'm talking about)
Canvey Island and Chavs. Its like a bloody plauge round here!This Blokes Definatly Too Punk For Funk!
Contact Box Generated from YourPimpSpace Join the Blah! Party, as its the best thing since sliced bread...
Unfortunatly they didn't have the genres of Granddad Rock or Music everyone else has forgotten about
