About Me

Things change from time to time, but at the moment this is how it is. I'm Joel, from a working class background and brought up in the same manner. I attended school, finished my exams, got good enough grades, especially in English and Music and even went on to get National Vocational Qualifications of grade 4 in business and Administration.But then something happened. I grew. I struggled through puberty, with my great manliness cutting through my childlike body with great passion. This passion I had to exert elsewhere. I chose music. No money involved in this outlet, but just the the passion dripping from my humongous monobrow I decided to become a homebrew musician!!( I had other jobs such as a postie type person and worked in an office for a fair few years, but nothing to write home about!! ).I am therefore, A MUSICIAN!!!a7af6270e9cece64e0d2c4eeed07c429_ROLLINGSTONE_sm. jpg

My Interests

Music, has been since I was about 3 or 4 years old!!! oh and football!!

I'd like to meet:

I've met everyone that I've wanted to!!! And they all were, well how you'd expect. I don't hold no-one in the high respect, people are people whether you clean the street to singing in a band, although the people who clean the street have a harder job to do, but no-one respects them for it??? That's irony for ya!!!

Music:

My speciality!! I love the heavier side of the melodic metal scene!! I was brought up on megadeth who have now become one of my favourite bands, but my fave of all time is the German metal band Rage!!!! Rage are the stuff. They ahve been going over 20 years now and have not recorded one album that sounds the same yet!!!

Movies:

Black Comedies and comedy horrors!!! I own ALL the Friday the 13th series, and Evil Dead, on DVD, that kind of sums me up!!! lol

Television:

Hmmm, not really a fan, although I do kind of watch it when hungover!!

Books:

I ain't read a book in a while, but horror and supernatural books are my faves ( James Herbert, Dean Koontz etc ).

Heroes:

Nobody really. My mum and dad for having me I suppose!!!
