My new thang this year(2006) has been to get into Kite Surfing.started flying kites.....who fucking laughed?...in Feb and progressed onto the water in June. You know that bit in Point Break,where Keanu's bird(but in truth she's a bit of a dog!!) looks at him after he's just caught his first wave proper and says
"You look different, It's like all the worry and the stress have just disappeared from your face"
Or words to that effect......I fucking hate folk who can quote films word for word!!! GET A FUCKING LIFE SADDOS!!!
Anyway, I was saying..... yada,yada,yad peared from your face....
I can fucking relate to that!!! Ksurfing is unbelievable!!! what a rush!!! gonna be introducing a whole host of peeps to it this year to let them taste what it's all about!!!
I play football too,though I'm currently out injured with medial and cruciate ligament damage. Hopefully I should be back for the end of Feb, but the way things are going I'll be a total lardass by then!!
And I DJ too........"how many cool things can one person do?" I hear you all ask..... I don't know tbh!! I'm just a cool fucker who doesn't even have to try!!!I've tried reading books and taking medicines to make me less cool, but nothing seems to work..it's a curse at times,but I'm slowly learning to live with it.
Back to the DJing.......I'm brilliant!!! NO! I really am!! I've played at the Rhumba club.....twice!! Nosebleed(back in my old Gabba days) three times, and also held a residency in the honeycomb in Edinburgh. I play NuSkoolBreaks which is the greatest type of dance music you will ever get to hear in this day in age......unfortunately, fans of this music are a bit short in supply north of the border....so I don't get any work.....It's my excuse....and I'm sticking to it!!!
Anyone who loves the NuSkool Breaks sound!!!Don't like it yet?.....try http://members.aol.com/scottbpm/ and you'll be hooked!!!!!All the oldskool ravers out there!!!!you know who you all are!!! We all had something really special and it's great to talk over old times!!!! ................Stone Roses/Ian Brown fans.....plus the man himself if he's about!!! THE greatest band,with THE greatest frontman......EVER!!!!!!basically all the funny folks and cool peeps who I've something in common(or I find incredibly attractive;) )with!!!!!
Well I had written a story on my musical taste but it didn't really help anyone if they were looking for the links.....so here we go.....take II..... The Streets,Nu Skool Breaks,Oldskool Rave,Public Enemy,Duran Duran(shut it!!!),The Futureheads,Kasabian,Happy Mondays,The Stone Roses,Ian Brown,The La's,De La Soul,Beastie Boys,The Prodigy(though I have to confess,I preferred their very early stuff...i.e...the Prodigy Experience),Goldfrapp, I go absolutely wild for the Old Skool Rave as it brings back so many memories of a time that will never be repeated.. My favourite DJ's back in the day were....Carl Cox(played the greatest set I've ever heard!!!!)Marc Smith(before his cheese days),Grooverider,Easygroove,Ellis Dee,The Ratpack,Seduction,DJ SS,The Producer,Lenny Dee,Manu le Malin,Mark Newlands and many,many more plus loads of PAs,but the one PA who stood out were the Rythmic State......you should have seen them at the Event 2..........Andy Coccoza(apologies if i've spelt that incorrectly) has the worlds most infectious grin!!!! He truly looks happy, and most importantly grateful, to be up there entertaining the masses...his enthusiasm then rubs off on the crowd and the atmosphere is always cranked when the TRS do their stuff!!!! So what do I dance to today?I hear you ask.......Nu Skool Breaks......the only dance music that comes close to capturing the sheer energy of the early nineties........Plump DJs,The Rogue Element,BLIM,Slyde,Rennie Pilgrem,Soul of Man,Adam Freeland,Freq Nasty,Infusion,Dan F,......you need to check out their tracks..........you'll be hooked!!!!!if you want to give the breaks a try,try logging ontohttp://members.aol.com/scottbpm/
Not a big movie goer TBH!!! will watch anything as long as it's enjoyableBest film......John Carpenters, The Thing.....quite possibly the scariest, mind melting film ever!!!!Who was infected? who wasn't?Just remembered........who's got a spare copy of CB4 kicking about?one of the funniest films I've ever seen.....and probably one of the most sampled too!!!Worst film.....several contenders but the Dawson Michie worst hour and a half of my life award goes to.......PRACTICAL MAGIC!!!!! UTTER S***E!!!!!! I do apologise for the profanities, but this film really got my goat!!!!!!!
Yep!!! a Panasonic!!!! nice black one with a remote control and everything!!!!
