About Me


Hello everybody, I've just added a new slide show of photo's that a mate of mine took whilst visiting me here in Darwin. I've also added a heap of new photo's to my photo album. They are mostly from on stage at various venues around town. Please enjoy!Wow, what an amazing journey so far and now that the tv side of things is over I can finally update this thing.Thank-you to everybody that has offered their support through this incredible experience.Being so heavy at the beginning of the show, I always knew that I would not be at my goal of 110kg by the time of the finale but I am 75kg lighter and only have about another 30kg to go for me to literally be half the man I use to be.Singing at the finale was a lifelong dream of performing on national television with an audience of over 2 million which is quite mind blowing when I stop and think about it. I do hope that with this kind of exposure that other opportunities for recording and performing at a national level do arise.The 3 songs that you can listen to here are the same ones that have always been there and if you haven't listened to them yet, please do so if you can spare the time.Thanks once again everyone, I have had so many messages that unfortunately I have not had the time to respond to many of them but I have read them all and they mean the world to me. From the bottom of my heart I thank you all.Damien Wicks.PS. Here are some photo's that I took on my phone mostly on the day of the finale. Hopefully I will get some better ones very soon. I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
