My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 26/02/2006
Band Members: the only member of G.o.o.f is of course Goof
Influences: Directly and indirectly I have stolen lines/melodies from these geniuses: Darren Hayman, Boyracer, Beach boys, Mountain goats, Kleenex girl wonder, cocker spaniels, pipas, superfurry animals, Bunnygrunt, Dorotea, Red pony clock, the cat's miaow, pulp, orange cake mix, Florian, Roxette, Lil Hospital, The only ones, The libertines, The promise ring, Scaredy cat, TVPs... Some books that I like that have had influence in one or more of my songs: Edward Young "A complaint: night thoughts on life, death and immortality", Miguel De Unamuno "Niebla" ("dimma" "mist" ) Staffan Seeberg "Vägen genom vasaparken" Erik Lindegren "mannen utan väg" ("The man without a way")
Sounds Like: Sore voice, poor singing skills, bad overall recording and mixing quality. Some good songs though (Cover them!) I play on drummachine (Alesis SR-16 it SUCKS) , acoustic and electric guitar, madtracker, keyboard and casseroles
Record Label: I am looking for a label to release a cassette

My birthday song by Louie & Clark
