My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 20/06/2006
Band Website: www.biggiolarecords.com
Band Members: Alec Fraser, Jerome Godboo, Joe Toole
Influences: Johnny Cash, Muddy Waters, Hank Williams, ACDC, Little Feat, Dr John, Hamish Imlach, Billy Connolly, Alec Fraser Sr, David Wilcox, Lightning Chance, Lefty Frizzell, Taj Mahal. Dock Boggs, Merle Haggard and the Sex Pistols (Though I doubt those last two ever worked together) Just about every band that can write a good story and deliver it. My little dog has influenced me lately too. When i take her on walks she always returns with a coffee cup in her mouth that some litterbug has tossed. If it`s a large cup it completely covers her face. This has taught me that litterbugs must have had their mommys to pick up after them and that my wee dog is definately needing to switch to decaf.
