One half of the flip flop metal guitarist duo

About Me

I enjoy the following:
- 'Fist in the air' metal.
- UFO spotting and astrological type things.
- Blind optimism involving anything but myself.
- 80's Cartoons
- Attempting to create music.
- Spontaneity / Self discovery etc.
- Japan
- Final Fantasy / Anime stuff
- Worldly affairs / changes / causes / solutions
The phrase 'best thing of all time' is banded around a lot these days, so i feel i should set the record straight with this via the miracle of YouTube... ..
I dislike the following:
- People who are needlessly negative.
- The Kaiser Chiefs
I realise the above facts arn't very detailed and that there is much more to me (i hope) than simply disliking the Kaiser Chiefs(Grr), but i do like bulletpoints.
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!
