About Me

Hello all, I'm an Irish gal livin' in Hove! Graduated last year with a BA(Hons) Degree in Contemporary Popular Music (Guitar), from the ACM in Guildford (woo hoo!!) I'm hoping to find lots of fun and musical things to do in Brighton :-) Once upon a time I played guitar, but these days it's bass! Drums for kicks, keys if you ask me nicely... ;-) I teach too so please let me know if you fancy some lessons!!! And most importantly, check out my new band the Level - they rock ..m/I did my dissertation on repetitive strain injuries (RSI) in guitar players, if anyone has any miracle cure or needs advice... Also looking to jam and gig in the south coast area so if you need a guitarist, drop me a line! :-)I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4

The Curse of the Bass Player

THE CURSE OF THE BASS PLAYER In the beginning there was a bass. It was a Fender, probably a Precision, but it could have been a Jazz - nobody knows. Anyway, it was very old ...definitely pre- C.B.S . ...

Blue Screen of Death

Having woken up to the Blue Screen of Death this morning, and spending an hour on the phone to Dell with a screwdriver in my hand... (I didn't actually need the screwdriver, it was just for effect...)...

JOHN MAYALL!

So glad my mum made me skip drums (oops) and go to Brighton on Tuesday... Saw John Mayall at the Brighton Dome, and Gary Moore stopped by for a few songs!! It was AWESOME
