About me and rantings
I am a long haired freak who likes to eat food and do other stuff. I have a fair few passions in life, which are the following: -
    The sexiest person on the entire planet, my Marie :D Playing guitar Writing and composing music Recording music Good food (cooking it and devouring it) Formula 1
I am currently a Network Analyst at TNS in Sheffield, which funds my passions, and fuels my insanity :D
In terms of music, I am part of a band which is forming as I type this, and will be in a Heavy, Progressive and Melodic flavour of Metal, think if Evergrey, Nevermore, Vital Remains and Meshuggah fell into a pot and got mixed up, you'd be somewhere in the right area. Currently we are in search of a vocalist, so if you are one, or know one, get in touch!
For recording music, please see the link above for Pure Reality Studios. I am a university graduate at Music Technology, with a fully portable Protools set up, available to record.

My Interests

Music, playing guitar, web design, recording music, meeting cool people, composition, going to good gigs, cooking, messing around with PC's and Mac's, and other random activities

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who is cool, people who are as obsessed with Metal as I am, but also don't think its the only form of music in existence.

I also love talking to musicians, and getting their ideas/spins on music. No offence to anyone who isn't a musician, but I can talk deeper to them about music, the arrangements, the theory, how a certain mode affects the song, how the key changes work, time signatures etc etc. I love anyone who loves music, but musicians I adore finding someone who is on my wavelength with it all.

I also obviously have an affinity with guitarists, and anyone who can talk gear is gonna get on well with me (unless you favour Marshalls :P)
