I'm particularly interested in;
Writing (all forms of)
Music - Promotion, Publication, Reviewing - everythings worth a listen.
Indy / Foreign cinema. Film production / editing.
Combining these things to make some freakin' money!
Looking after my people.
NINTENDO!!
I love to read, the right book can take you far farther away from reality than any other media. Brett Easton Ellis and Hunter S. Thompson are personal favorites of mine.
To be honest I'm interested in success. I believe if you work hard enough, and show individuality, then you can, and must succeed.
I'm always interested in expanding my knowlegde and understanding of other cultures. Oh, and possibly your mother. If she's lucky lol
Mike Patton (fuck yes)!!!!
Hunter S. Tompson (my god yes)!! R.I.P Hunter...
Banksy! He's so elusive.
Jimmy Carr, he's as offensive as we'd all like to be but can't.
Tony Jaa, have you seen Ong Bak or Tom Young Gong? If yo have you know what I mean.
Brett Easton Ellis, his books rock my world
John Peel (Legend) R.I.P John.
Buck 65...I cant convince you why, U'd have to check him out and see what you think.
Noel Fielding aka Vince noir, Fuckin comic legend!
Everyone on the set of Peepshow!
Chris Morris, U should know why!
The whole of Gwar (now that would be interesting)
As for people on myspace, Open-minded, Free thinking, free speaking, people who think outside of genre boundaries. Why do we have to all wear one thing and listen to one type of music to fit in? Can't we all discover ourselves through culture expansions? Get out there today and discover a piece of music you’ve never heard before, a piece of clothing you've never considered, make a friend who is into things that are strange and new to you...Why the hell not? If you’re reading this and think you know what I’m getting at, then please drop me a line.
I'd be interested in conversing.Cheers, Calv..
