 
I'm keen (ie. not very good) player and supporter of football, and have been unfortunate enough to follow Southampton since a young age. I play guitar, and have been getting better slowly.
I should say someone profound and influential like Ghandi or Martin Luther King, but instead I'm going to go for the Howard Moon, he spans the genres.
I listen to most things, even hippidy hop once or twice. I like bands like The Libertines, Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Jack Johnson, Arctic Monkeys, etc.
As long as it doesn't have Kevin Costner in it, its ok with me.
For the next month its solid wall to wall World Cup football.
I go through books quite quickly so I read quite a few different types. Recently I bought a cookery book, which must mean I'm getting old.
Matt Le Tissier - Used to score some fantastic goals and he had a realy odd shaped nose.
