........i'm not an alcoholic, they go to meetings....i'm a drunk....

About Me

right so, i'm mart.there are many ways to interpret that opening, but usually it is followed by "now sit the fuck down while i order us some drinks", and i think thats the one i like the most.i'm really starting to believe that a simple life is the only way forward, its taken a few years to get to it, but it seems so worthwhile now. maybe africa had a bigger affect on me than i first thought...YAY for Africa !

My Interests

endeavouring to write the song i know is still waiting to come out, , sailing home to liverpool on stormy days, sailing out of dublin on beautiful days, kalamake an mick's hotel, watching matt's face when he gets his little concept of lyrics,spookily, i love sitting by the shore, listening to jazz fm in colour with a couple of beers...thats when me and the boys where poor...like those days could ever come back..the poor bit i mean...hahaha....o'sullivans and fitzgeralds bars in dublin, the raglan - joe and maddy's back home in birkenhead...

I'd like to meet:

well, i like pikey's and lads from tipp, so i suppose daire and timmay ! really...oh, and i find people who (in their own words) "tawlk funny" alright...if i could just get over the whole new york thing......and i'd like to have met myself, just randomly in a bar, when the other me was in full flow, just to see if i would like myself....oh, and phil collins - no jacket required eh phil ? i would ask him to put one on just so i could pull it over his stupid fucking head while i bate the fucking daylights out of him with his own snare drum...i'm gonna meet my maker at some stage, i'll let him do the talking for once

Music:

even though i know what you listen to is shit, your gonna defend it claiming i dont understand...the problem is, i do understand. i understand it is shit.

Movies:

that one where nick cage drinks himself to death...if you dont know the movie....i suppose i have to say "once" too, cause seeing glen hansard getting robbed on grafton street by a smack-head is priceless...

Books:

THE FINAL YEARS OF A BURNT OUT ROCK + ROLL STAR by MART GORMAN...one hell of a read, in which mart attempts to recapture lost youth and prove that age is neither a hinderence or issue when it comes to drinking himself and others to death...at all bad bookshops from january 2008. by then, it should be written, and, alas, he shall be dead.

Heroes:

simple, i have a few, alison...who is my future, matt, who is my best buddy, dee, Jess or ica or p-wang, asia, andy c and andy d, timmay ! daire-daire and edel and glen, and i cant forget renee (her name is renee), no-one can forget renee....
