About Me

Well, what can I say? An ageing rocker who enjoys a drink or 3.
I got into metal properly when I heard "Stargazer" by Rainbow. Then someone did the unthinkable, yes they gave me a tape (2 hours worth) of this Canadian band called RUSH! So it began.
I have travelled across Europe and been to the States and Canada for gigs (the latter 2 for RUSH) and festivals.
I love music, metal being very much my preference, although folk find it strange when they find out my love of Nat King Cole, my all time favourite male singer. Although if asked my number 1 rock singer it would be the late great Bon Scott of AC/DC.
I also love football and reading (horror and crime mostly with the odd autobiographical thrown in) and travelling to new places and meeting new folk.
I can be found in the Black Rose pub a fair bit, and at gigs in Edinburgh/Glasgow as well as Sweden Rock festival.
