'How will you be defined in the dictionary?' at QuizGalaxy.com I'm 27 and I live and work in Birmingham. Huge fan of music particularly the dark side like metal, rock, ebm etc. Have a peer at my music section and you'll get the general idea. I play Bass guitar which is nice. I like gigs, reading and strumming the guitar when nobody else can hear or when everyone else is drunker than me!

My Interests

Playing Bass and Guitar, out to gigs and clubs, listening to music, reading crime books, kicking back in front of a dvd.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone like minded, any bands that might appeal, people to go out clubbing with (especially in birmingham but i like seeing new places) and anyone who's up for chatting and making a new friend. If you're up for a laugh get the hell in touch!!

Music:

Pretty Eclectic but mainly into death/doom/black metal, ebm/industrial/cyber, rock. Bands i dig the mostest include Katatonia, My Dying Bride, Paradise Lost, Emperor, Gehenna, Dark Tranquillity, Mindrot, Daylight Dies, At the Gates, Covenant, VNV Nation, In Flames, Assemblage 23, Imindain, October Tide, Dimmu Borgir, Detonation, Anathema, Depeche Mode, Opeth, Samael, Arcturus, Porcupine Tree, Amorphis, Carcass, GGFH, Solefald, The Enchanted etc.

Movies:

Pretty much anything Tim Burton has done, Monty Python Films, Underworld, Blade Trilogy, Fight Club. Not tecnically movies but Eddie Izzard, Dylan Moran, Bill Bailey, Alan Davies stand up dvd's.

Television:

Don't really watch a great deal but i love comedy stuff like Black Books, Father Ted, Spaced, Big Train and i must admit to getting sucked into 24 in spite of my better judgement!!

Books:

Orwell's 1984 is one of my faves along with Neil Gaiman's Stardust. All Gaimans's stuff is great. Anything by Ian Rankin, Kathy Reichs, Nicci French when i'm feeling mindless. Just read Star of the Sea which was pretty interesting.

Heroes:

My parents, Steve DiGiorgio, Cliff Burton, Chuck Schuldiner.

Public apology to Trent Reznor

On the spur of the moment and in spite of a long standing hatred of Nine Inch Nails, I went to see them last night in brum. Got a stupidly cheap ticket from a tout about 2 mins before NIN went on. The...

To everyone that was out last night I just want to send my heartfelt thanks.  It was totally overwhelming ( as you may have noticed) to see so many wonderful people in one place. Some of you i've...
