About Me

I'm a FICTIONAL character from a recently published book called The Lost Tribes Of Pop: Goths, Folkies, iPod Twits And Other Musical Stereotypes . In other words: I'm not a real person, but I'm almost certainly out there somewhere - possibly passed out dangerously close to a bonfire - and I serve as quite a good way to bring festival-worshipping types together. Born to breathe the Avalon air, I am owner of a disturbingly large percentage of the world's scant remaining Mega City 4 promotional merchandise. I like white water rafting and potholing, but my idea of living life to the full is essentially a field in Somerset, a can of cider and the distant sound of a didgeridoo being played by a dreadlocked man called Grunf.

The Mighty Boosh's Julian Barratt on The Lost Tribes Of Pop:"A hilarious expedition to the coast of popular culture. A funny and poignant examination of the strange creatures that inhabit the furthest reaches of the 'long tail'. "
