About Me

I have spent most of my adult life playin bass guitar for various bands and solo acts, but the bulk of it with The Dionysus from 1998 - 2006. Recorded a couple of albums and done a bucket load of gigs. I am a lighting technician/electrician by trade. Used to work in the TV lighting business but now have moved over to theatre and live shows which can be anything from rock concerts to corporate events and even ballet! I have been surfing for the last 4 years (on water, not the net) and spend summers in Cornwall falling of my board! I live in Winchester with my girlfriend, Lucy, and am just enjoying life in general.

My Interests

Playin rock n roll is great fun - I love it. I do enjoy goin to watch bands aswell - big or small. Live music is a great thing to see anywhere when its done well. But I am also a big footie fan and for my sins follow Chelsea (yes, yes the billioaire bandits) and Winchester City - who if I had millions would buy and bring them into the football league. I love films too, especially old black and white movies - Orson Welles in particular. But I also really enjoy documentaries and just well made stuff. Big fan of Robert Rodriquez.

I'd like to meet:

Bret Michaels from Poison (one of my teenage rock heroes), Jimmy 'The Legend' Page. Hendrix would have been cool too, but for abvious reasons of him bein dead, thats probably not gonna happen!!
