I care about music and politics a bit too much :)
Please don't thank me for 'adds'.
It's a pleasure. Honestly.
Music, film, politics. You know, the usual.
I'm looking to gain more experience of stage managing, especially gigs and festivals - in case you're looking...
But in general, if you're over cynicism and irony, and love listening to strange music in small rooms, call me.
You can check what I'm listening to at the moment over on my Last.fm page.
Here's a taster:
Below you'll find my All Time Top 100 as played on my birthday. It's not ranked, but the first sixty are as I played them on the night - vaguely chronological and genre-ed as my life progressed: guitary stuff first, beats later. The list at the end is of the one's I didn't have time to play or were a bit too weird..quiet..loud to play on the night.
Oh and one of the tracks is for my Mum. Can you tell which? :)
