About Me

Hi, Rob here, thanks for dropping by. What's that ? Oh, this is the spot where I write something about me is it ? Um, okey dokey, a little bit about me then ... um, .... there's got to be something !?! Oh, hang on ... here you go ...
{coughs to clear throat}
Like 1,000,000s of other people I play guitar in a rock band. In my case the band is The Primeministers.
We're working on the set and it's coming along and we're hoping to get on the road in a couple of months. Anyway, there's a rough taster below if you feel like a listen:
(ok, in person we don't actually look this blocky !)
Anyway, I've played guitar for around 15 years with a year or so at the Guitar Institute in Acton, London. I spent 5 years in London while at Uni where I played with various bands from Blues to Rock to Metal yadda yadda yadda !
Anyway, this page ... well this is my space on MySpace for me, myself and I. I'm hoping to meet some cool people from all round the world and post a couple of work-in-progress tunes from time to time to try out some ideas.
Anyway, thanks again for checking out my page.
All the best, Rob.
PS: If you want to listen to any of the stuff I've uploaded on the player at the top of the page please go ahead. I'm always up for feedback .... just remember it's recorded at home and I never said I could sing !! :)

My Interests

Influences: Nirvana, Greenday, Fleetwood Mac, Foo Fighters ... pretty much anything Rock, Indie, Nu-Metal, Metal, Grunge

Has to be said that, although my influences are definitely Rock-based, I'd listen to anything and everything from Arabian Nasal Flutes to Zulu Thrash Metal if there were such things !!

Sounds Like: New Page 2

OK, I know it's lame but I couldn't resist adding a MySpace Map thang :)

Check the vid out below ... soooooo funny ! This is a look back at some of the virals, crashes, accidents, stunts, mis-haps, bloopers & calamaties over the past few years of the internet. Some of your old favorites will be here. Very funny !!

Room to Breathe Demo

Just a quick note to say that I've uploaded a demo of a new tune called 'Room to Breathe'. It's rough and the vocals suck (hence why I don't normally sing!!) but if you feel like a listen I wouldn't m...
