Going to see gigs preferably in smaller venues. Cinema visits. Bar-hopping to find a good jukebox and the urge to go dancing at 2am. Cooking for friends and looking after their cats when they go on holiday. I like watching good comedy acts too. Reading a fair amount. Hanging out with friends and talking utter rubbish for hours.
People who like off-beat comedy and movies of all genres. People who loved Shaun of the Dead and secretly practice doing zombie impressions. People who like weird films.Music obsessives of all types who enjoy catching a show and hate MSG. Guys who aren't afraid to hang out with a girl and still be able to talk shite about music and film without automatically thinking its a date.Anyone who loves Bill Hicks or Eddie Izzard.If you like Adam Ant then we really need to find some white facepaint and dance.Come on feel the noize (spelling c/o Wolverhampton).
