    Greg's Interests
MusicI like my music as I like my east-end gangsters, hard and heavy. Got a bit of a penchant for metallic hardcore (As I Laying Dying, Hatebreed, God Forbid) but not the soft-end emo shizzle, I'm talking proper meat and potatoes. Most types of metal get me pumped, some goes for hardcore. I like BIG sounds, so when bands team up with an orchestra I quite often like it (Virgin Black, Nightwish). More recently I've showed a little more of my soft side by venturing into art/indie rock (Dweeb, Gogol Bordello) and a few singer-songwriter types. And for anyone who is bored/disappointed by the standard forms of worship music, check out The Glorious Unseen or David Crowder Band.
MoviesHard to nail a top 5 or the like but I've certainly got a big soft spot for thrillers, especially dystopic thrillers and politically charged dramas. Any Kubrick, Scorcese, Boyle, Coppola or Tarantino movie should hit the spot.
TelevisionI used to watch (and listen to) a stupid amount of comedy. So you can probably work out the list from there. Tend to prefer the less mainstream stuff though. A good meaty documentary works a treat too. However, all I seem to watch these days is DVDs and the odd bit of Newsnight.
BooksI really don't read all that much, I do want to but for some reason I'd much rather read The Times or Independant. However, of the few books I have read I was really challanged and/or entertained by Velvet Elvis, Clockwork Orange, Dead Men Walking, The Coma and (of course) the Bible.
HeroesThere is no-one on earth that really fits the bill.

About me:
It may be worth bearing in mind that I use this profile predominantly for stuff to do with the Rock and Hard Place. Another social network site is where you're much likely to find me... Apparently I'm a Goth.

Really I'm not a Goth but I'm perfectly happy to be called one, although I am certainly a 'Rocker, Mosher'. I did used to have a nice looking profile but I got bored of it and went vanilla. Deal with it!
Who I'd like to meet:
Mikhail Gorbachev - just imagine the political life he's had! As for dead people, lets just wait till I get to heaven first eh?
