Andy

You're right. Good taste has undoubtedly deprived me of any number of friendships.

About Me

Hey, I'm Andy, and I hate filling in these little boxes. I'm 24, a uni graduate in an insanely boring subject, I got a great job through sheer luck that is slightly less dull, and pays pretty well. My greatest passion is music. I'm a drummer in a pretty successful Birmingham based Alt Rock band, add sixdaysober if you haven't already. I like the nicer side of Birmingham so you're much more likely to see me in the Mailbox, Bridley Place, or the Jewery quarter, than say Costers, Snobs or the Academy, but that doesn't mean you won't.

If Hate is a Fist,
And Love is a Flame,
I'm Gonna Smash It & Burn It,
Cos It's All The Same

Music, Movies, Friends, Clubs, Wine Bars and other classy places I shouldn't be allowed to go, Drums, Web Comics.
