About me: Welcome to Neds space. I have been in various bands in the Wirral over the past 10 years & in the blog you can find out more about them. I played keyboards for The Teenbeat from 1998 - 2002. I was singer & guitarist in The Shrooms in 2002 & 2003. I played bass in Moxy from 2003 - 2006 & bass for The Revelator in 2006 & early 2007.
I've taken a break from the band thing for the time being & am enjoying raising my little girl with my wife Emma. I'm hoping to find time to put in my blog little reviews of music that i've been grooving to whether it be new or old. I'm a bit obsessed with music & collect vinyl records - they just sound so much better than digital music somehow. My taste range is rather vast so expect anything to be posted. If you come across any music particularly special that you buzz off then send me a message. All comments are welcome... ;-)

Ned, you're an absolute one of a kind!! Love reading your reviews, they're always a bit smarter than the average review - seriously look into music journalism... Anyhoo, we're playing the academy 2 next Saturday (9th June) if you can possibly make it - would be cool to catch up again... David, The Revelator
When you get 10 mins have a look at the space of my friend The Lancashire Hotpots. If you remember anything of the Houghton Weavers then you'll probably have a bit of a giggle...
Cheers for that review fella - we love you!! Little note, the email address is therevelatorband@hotmail.co.uk, the other one went haywire unfortunately. Hope you can catch another show some time.
