"A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort"
Well...I'm 23...er...I'm a male.....and I live in Sheffield, Yorkshire in the UK. I play lots of sports as I love to be active and I also live for music...whether playing it or listening to it - on cd, in clubs or at a gig! Music is the gateway to your heart...it releases emotions and feelings that nothing else can. You can escape into music or use it as a means of releasing frustration or just if you are happy!
I want to grow a beard like Jesus, he was a pretty cool guy so therefore his beard must have been pretty cool too!
I mean....who in history with a beard wasn't cool???
Jesus, God, Santa, Guy Fawkes, King Henry VIII, Noel Edmunds and the King.......Chuck Norris! Need I saw more?
I used to play the drums in a band called " OneDarkDay " in Sheffield...it comprised of myself and Paul Gray (Bass and Backing vocals) and Ben Geffen (Lead guitar and Vocals) - both formally of Derbyshire band "Blew/Still9" - we played a mixture of rock and metal with a few more melodic tunes to allow for a larger fan base - though we prefered to rock out at every possible moment! We played a few gigs but after differences between Ben & Paul, Ben decided to leave the band and as a result I did likewise!
I am now in a band called " The Get Down Nights " with a group of friends - from established Sheffield bands and new to the whole industry. I am really looking forward to this project as I think that we will make this work! Stay tuned!!!
My music tastes are pretty eclectic...I'll listen to most things but really, at heart, I'm a Rocker and a Metalhead! |m|
As I mentioned I play cricket...If you don't like cricket then that is fair enough just breeze over this paragraph and start on the next one! In the Winter of 2004/5 I had the opportunity to play a season of District Grade cricket in Brisbane, QLD [Australia]. I played for Wynnum-Manly DCC I enjoyed that experience and I hope to return at some point...
On returning to the UK, I played a couple of seasons for Norwich CC 1st team in the ECB East Anglian Premier League - I'm looking forward to a new challenge!
Playing for Norwich meant a fair bit of traveling each weekend, having to commute from Sheffield to Norwich then from Norwich to wherever the games were (Cambridge, Godmanchester & Clacton are a few of the away games) but even though the league is an ECB Accredited League, and as a result, I got travelling expenses paid - I felt that it was a bit too much hassle just to play a top standard of cricket! The standard of cricket was very good - with teams containing current and former International, First-Class and Minor Counties cricketers.
On reflection I decided that playing cricket so far from where I was living was not very feasible long-term so I began playing for Treeton CC in the South Yorkshire Leagues - with their 1st XI in the South Yorkshire League Premier Division and their 2nd XI in the South Yorkshire League Division Three after leaving Norwich CC.
I spent half a season there before leaving and signing for Sheffield United , who play in the ECB Yorkshire Premier League and they also have a side in the South Yorkshire League as well. This season, despite suffering a serious thigh injury early in the season, has been great - I love my new club and can't see me moving on for the foreseeable future!
I'm a Fast-Medium bowler who bats down the order...a far cry from my junior cricket days of opening batsman and being a wicket-keeper! (which I was very good at I might add! But due to physical changes - ie. the fact that I'm now well over 6ft - playing as a wicket-keeper is not something that really makes sense!!)
If that didn't bore you then I hope you're still reading...If it did bore then all I can say is "I told you so!" - I warned you to move on if you weren't interested in cricket!
