About Me


Myspace Editor
Pimp MySpace
I am a six foot tall ape-descendant who does not like tea.I'm currently a student at the Norwich School of Art and Design - one of those pretentious gits who spend all their time pretending to be cool.I am also in a rock and blues outfit called The Learning Curve (more at www.myspace.com/thelearningcurvenorwich). We formed in November 2005 and have been playing all over the city. I am still looking for fame, fortune and a free meal.
I hate anything to do with emo, hip hop, (new) punk and anything that ain't rock or blues-based. Other than that, my music tastes are fairly normal.
Take the quiz:
What alcoholic beverage are you?

Budweiser Beer

Music:

My favourite band is Lynyrd Skynyrd. Others include: Iron Maiden; Pink Floyd; Yes; Emerson, Lake and Palmer; The Beatles; Eric Clapton; Bob Dylan; Red Hot Chili Peppers; The Who; The Eagles; Deep Purple; Mostly Autumn; R.E.M; Wishbone Ash; The Strawbs; Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.I'm also partial to a bit of classical music - Holst; Mussorgsky; Grieg and anything else I can get my hands on.

Movies:

Favourite film is A Night to Remember. It's a film about the sinking of the Titanic. Really old, but better than that rubbish with Leonardio De Crapio.

Television:

Doctor Who (and I don't care who knows it!) The Simpsons. There are some other things, but my brain is too addled to remember them at the moment.

Books:

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (Jules Verne). Lord of the Rings (I know there are people who don't like this book. I just think it's very well-written, that's all.) The Children of Green Knowe (Lucy M. Boston. This is actually a children's book, but it's one of my favourites because it's more magical than Harry-bloody-Potter).

Heroes:

Pete Townshend (guitarist with The Who and an absolute legend!); The original Lynyrd Skynyrd line-up. Norman Wisdom (fantastic comedian and actor).
