Top Banana!

About Me



I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !

My name is Will, and, although the picture might suggest it, I am not a banana. I am human. I don't even eat bananas, however, I do like an apple every now and then. I currently live in Bognor Regis with my lady friend, but am occasionally spotted skulking around the shadier areas of Storrington. I am a piano/keyboard teacher, and restaurant pianist. I am a self-confessed pretentious (obsessive)tosser when it comes to music, and am a staffwriter for the American website www.popmatters.com

My Interests

Listening to lots and lots of music (then boring the tits off people whilst talking about it), driving my Volkswagen Scirocco in an 80s throwback chav-chic fashion, going to cool music festivals, and preening my beard

Prison Outrage

I was shocked to hear Home Secretary David Blunkett say that Britain's prison population has been ballooning for the past ten years. My God, has the world gone mad? Those people are there to be pun...

Passion of the Christ?

Did anyone else feel that Mel Gibson's remake of the classic Life of Brian wasn't anywhere near as funny as the original?

Good God!

I just bought a new car and when I insured it, the broker informed me I wasn't covered for acts of God. Imagine my anger when I looked out of my bedroom window in the early hours and saw the Lord...
