Music mainly!! I like circuit bending kids toys or old keyboards to make them sound even more crap than they did before by sticking capacitors, switches and resistors on them! I play guitar...I'm no shredmaster but I have long stretchy fingers and write my own material, I also dabble with bass guitar in the style of a dented bucket that drips coolant in the dark recesses of a deep underground bunker!!? I play in a most excellent band called Symplex for which we still need a vocalist - so apply if your interested! Gigs and festivals are what life is worth living for!
Myself in a parallel dimension, Rolf Harris, an army of oompa loompas, the endangered waa woo-woo butterflies, an ancient mayan civilization, Mr.T, DAVROS (or any daleks), brian blessed, brian Dennehey anyone called brian...or brain, the kwisatz haderach, the lady in the radiator, the hungry hungry nipples, bruce campbell, nobody!!?

I'm not a massive fan of TV and hate adverts even more,it's the soul swallowing tool of the devil, good for brainwashing people unlike the internet where I sit instead; transfixed to a carefully arranged bunch of 0s and 1s. The Simpsons,Bottom,Brasseye,The Young Ones,Red Dwarf,Lost,Family Guy and music TV is great vegetable matter (better than turnips)
I used to enjoy having a little time to live in a ficticious world of books by authors such as:Clive Barker,Stephen King,Frank/James Herbert,Irvin Welsh,George Orwell,Douglas Adams, Aldous Huxley. Has anyone read about the 13 crystal skulls?If not do so! I also like reading musical biographies But I'm stuck reading university material for the moment. I've just read most of Syd Barretts kinda half baked biography...very strange indeed
I'm not sure I have a hero but if I did, then it would come in the form of an oompa-loompa on a space hopper eating a severed limb :) Actually Johnny Cash is my hero
Myspace is for gays
