About Me

Im a 21 year old born and bred piece of essex who now lives in Manchester because the north is the way forward.I write about and review music for The Sanctuary and several online webzines such as audioscribbler.co.uk, tastyfanzine.org.uk and glasswerk.co.uk, so if you want me to review anything or do a feature on you/your band/a band you know then just message me on here.I also like to get involved with all things radio and currently help out at Allfm. If you would like to come in for a session on Caroline's Tuesday drive time show then give us a shout and we'll see what we can do.In addition I also lend a helping hand to a great independent record label called Humble Soul who works with great artists such as Liz Green, Denis Jones, John Fairhurst, Aidan Smith.... When I fancy making shapes, getting fucked and normally falling over I end up in places like Roadhouse, Star n Garter, Up The Racket...When I nip down to Essex I normally end up (through no fault of my own) at Mayhem, Zinc and Bakers Bar. I prefer Sunrooms, The Alex, Pink Toothbrush, Royals Basement... where its just better, and NOT full of guys with perfectly ripped jeans, pink t-shirts, straightened hair and orange girls that look at you like a piece of shit.click here

Heroes:

Although I have not had the pleasure of bumping into the legendary janice (sainburys, fallowfield) for quite sometime now, she will always remain a hero in my eyes. her blemished crusty face and horse-like flakey scalp always manages to impress me. Her shit commitment to work and life always fills me with a warm glow when approaching the checkout. Janices lack of enthusiasm and social skills as well as dangerously low levels of charisma is so impressive they should be awarded and admired far and wide.
