About Me

..

wassuuup?! i'm a 22 year old dude who plays bass and lives for music (see below). i'm straight edge and love to go gigging and shopping for cd's! i collect Bad Taste Bears and i'm a sucker for anything acoustic. i also am an avid football (and sport in general) follower and (unfortunately) support Nottingham Forest. i practice Spirit Combat (a martial art, mixing ju-jitsu, aikido, judo, kickboxing), Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) and i'm a fan of mixed martial arts (MMA).
xSTRAIGHT FUCKING EDGExbigging up the MayheM!
"I pledge alligence to the Mayhem Cult, and swear an oath to anti-boredom and pro-randomness, and to the internet on which it stands, I will wreak havoc, fun, and especially mayhem."

My Interests

music (see below), bass playing, mixed martial arts, computer games, gigging, football, bad taste bears, frogs, technology, films

I'd like to meet:

Green Day so i can tell them how much of an impact they've had on my life, Bill Gates so i could punch him in the face for being a rich twat, George W. Bush so i could assasinate him and stop at least some of the world's problems, Kevin Smith so i can tell him how funny he is (even though he probably already knows) and Jason 'MayheM' Miller as he's the most electrifying man in mma baby!
