About Me

Hello. My name is Andy. I live in the delightful hole that is Coventry. As crap as this is, it has to be enjoyed, particularly for the 'everybody knows everyone and what they're doing' atmosphere, which myspace definately heightens.

Since finishing my degree, I have made the semi-sensible decision to tie myself down to 9-5 employment, with all the fixtures and fittings of drudgery which come with it. Perhaps one day I may break out of this and do something which I really enjoy, rather than just for novelty. This is getting a little serious.


When not selling my soul to the god of fossil fuels, I enjoy making obscure techno, buying 12"s from the eighties on eBay, downloading things and generally having fun times.
Things which lead to fun times:
Techno
Cleaning
Organising things
Talking about things as if I know what I'm on about
The 80s
Food shopping
Making a fool of myself
Flirting with straights
Downloading stuff
Writing lists
Trying to be sneaky but not really pulling it off
Knowing the lyrics to songs, and singing them whenever possible
Things which do not give me fun times:
Allowing myself to believe things which are obviously never going to happen
Nobs on the interent
Being sick
Having a sweaty face (often the product of fun times)
Comedowns (see above brackets)
I used to have a note saying 'I hope this makes you want to be my friend'
It's not true... I don't care. And if anything, my fantastic taste in music should make you want to be my friend (heh!)...
DISCLAIMER:
If you are my friend in the actual world and find yourself getting peeved as you are:
a - not in my 'top friends'
b - not my 'top friend'
c - not in any pics
try not to kill yourself, it wasn't meant with malice, and I will probably add you and take someone else away at some point....

My Interests

Fun times

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet quite a few people, but perhaps I should really focus on seeing the people I've already met.

You know who you are...

Also, please check out my music page...

It used to be in my friends list until I realised that was a little sad.

Music:

Currently listening to....

The chart which shows my most played artists was DULL DULL DULL. So I have decided to change it to 'this weeks most played'. I'm sure all of this is very interesting...

Movies:

The Fifth Element, Hedwig & The Angry Inch, Cabaret, all Hellraisers but 'Hell on Earth' (despite the "...not quite" bit), Clueless, the US versions of Ring & Ring 2, Goodfellas, Casino, loads but can't be arsed to sit and write them all out

Heroes:

Leigh Bowery, Boy George (which one's which?!), Gaultier, Amanda Lepore, Pete Burns, and anyone who contributes to the fledgling techno community, it needs it.
