About Me

I'm Ross. I love music. I like Ska and Punk and Ska-Punk and Ska-P. Everyone who has heard Ska-P likes them, maybe it's because they're Spanish and play Ska. I love reggae too, and DnB/electronic when I'm pished. I can ski, and do when I can afford it. I can play guitar, bass, and I'm trying to pick up keyboard (and failing). I'm skilled to near-geek level with computers and games. I'm fairly non-confrontational. I can scuba dive. I love Guinness and decent real beers. I don't read the Daily Mail.
My favourite place is Hawaii, and my second favourite place would be Jamaica because Ska was born there. I don't smoke, but I'm far from being straight edge. I love any oriental food and will probably be living off it for the next four years now that I'm at Uni.
A special mention should be made here for the parmo. It is the greatest food devised by man.
I recently moved to Newcastle to study Law at Northumbria. Having an awesome time, contact me if you need a floor up here to sleep on!
I also enjoy a bit of a rant now and then, check my uh... blog? It sucks but it's good to just write stuff down sometimes.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Stevie Wonder, Eddie Izzard. Nick 13 springs to mind... Obviously anyone from NOFX or Rancid, they're all awesome guys. Suggs from Madness. I think I'd only wanna hang with most of these people, they're a bit old to come to my slumber parties. (joke) Travis from Blink/Transplants/Aquabats/loads of other bands, cuz he's just the daddy.
