Punk Rock (obviously!), Reggae, Rock, Film, Paganism/Witchcraft (No! NOT devil worship. That's a Christian concept and I don't follow THAT path). Vampires, Werewolves & Zombies. I'd like a big trike but so far all I got was the tattoo.
I don't like sport and I don't follow football at all. I don't care if you do but don't treat me as strange just 'cause I don't and I'd rather read a book.
I HAVE A DEFINITE PROBLEM WITH EXTREMISM, FUNDAMENTALISM, FASCHISM, DICTATORS AND ALL THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE LIFE HARD FOR OTHERS WHILST LINING THEIR OWN POCKETS.
Oh Yeah, and me and 'the old hag' used to do management/promotion like stuff when we could but we've given up do to the apathy of punk audiences.
But we still help out the DAGGERS PUNK/Bridge House II crowd when we can.
Music
John Peel forever! Punk, powerpop, psychedelia, reggae, ska, trash, garage, psychobilly, rock, rockabilly, 60's soul, mod. But PLEASE..READ CAREFULLY...I do NOT like Rap about guns/girls/bling'n'shit. I like Rhythm 'n' Blues NOT R'N'B. I like real drums and a bass NOT not DRUM'N'BASS). Oh, and a bit of old school Goth is alright if it's got some guitars on it.
And ENNIO MORRICONE and GOBLIN.

Hi Ken, thanx for the offer. We just phoned to Clive to find a date for the London show, and hopefully some more UK dates for later this year. It..s not so easy for us to find some proper common dates for that, cause we..re all all old frats behind forty with jobs and family, but im sure we make it over this year. Cheers Tom
