My Interests

Pride, avarice, lust, sloth, gluttony, wrath, envy...and occasionally other stuff like going to gigs/ bars/ clubs, reading anything and everything, arsing around with my friends, sleeping, finding strange vintage clothes, ashtanga vinyasa yoga, travelling, learning to play guitar (i'm fucking awful), films, art, cutting up clothes and sewing them together so they look worse than before. However, if my parents are reading this, I like cooking, reading the bible, homemaking, all the good shit.

I'd like to meet:

People who like doing things that they shouldn't.

Music:

Interpol, Gang of Four, Modern Lovers, New Young Pony Club, Editors, The Cribs, Richard Hell, Nick Drake, Kinsitas, Suicide, The Psychedelic Furs, Robochrist, Brakes, The Cure, Peaches, The Gossip, 10 000 Things, The Thermals, Bikini Kill, Patrick Wolf, Depeche Mode, The Rolling Stones, Talking Heads, Good Shoes, Echo And The Bunnymen, Parva, Ladytron, Bright Eyes, Black Wire, Pixies, The Faint, Duels, The Smiths, Siouxsie And The Banshees, New Order, The Long Blondes, Golden Smog, The Velvet Underground, The Tailors, We Are Scientists, Gravy Train!!!, iForward Russia!, Elefant, The Postal Service, White Rose Movement, Blondie, Napoleon IIIrd, Joy Division, Pink Grease, Devo, The Glitterati, Elastica, Komakino, Performance, Moving Units, The Sunshine Underground...

Movies:

The Lost Boys, Ghostbusters, Fright Night, Chopper Chicks In Zombie Town and any other shitty 60s/70s/80s horror movies, Hairspray, Rock n Roll High School, Labyrinth(!), Cry Baby, Performance, Y Tu Mama Tambien. Stuff by Kevin Smith, David Cronenberg and John Carpenter generally rocks too.Anyway, I'm trying to catch up on all those films I've been meaning to watch but never quite get round to...this week it's Kinsey and The Brown Bunny...

Television:

I don't really watch TV, there's too much else going on...

Books:

I'm always reading, it's the best. I like trashy rock 'n' roll biographies, classic novels (you can't beat Austen and Du Maurier), modern stuff (Coupland and Bukowski are geniuses!), books that teach me about things (philosophy, history of art etc) and poetry (Baudelaire, Rimbaud, Rossetti, Larkin are favourites).

Heroes:

No more heroes any more.
