Guitars, music, going to gigs. Drinking, taking stupid bets when drunk and munching as much kebab meat and parmo as humanely possible. Curry. Reggae Reggae Sauce. Playing games, counter-strike is pretty damn good. Fucking about with friends and road-tripping to places.

電影
Any Guy Ritchie films, they're all awesome. Battle Royale is damn good... Kinda sad but I love 2001: A Space Odyssey cuz its just really bizarre. It's best watched when drunk. Human Traffic. Ice Cube's "Friday" series of films.
As an ex-media studies guy I should probably launch into a Tarantino rant now, but I love him. All his films are great, I love Kill Bill, Reservoir Dogs, and Pulp Fiction is just... perfect!
Ninja/Karate films are pretty fun; Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon was ace with all the mad flying and tree walking and stuff. Funniest film I've seen in years has got to be the South Park Movie- I'll never be too old to love that. Team America is wicked too, just don't expect another South Park-funny movie. Trainspotting is pretty cool.
Fight club is frankly THE TITS. Wayne's World, Se7en, Lucky Number Slevin, Scarface, Dogma... How High? I'm just naming films now. I'll watch almost anything as long as it's not BALLS :)
電視
Family Guy and South Park run my television life; mainly cuz people that aren't real can do more mad shit. The Office was awesome too; I'm not into drama particularly (although prison break is coooool...), and as for documentaries... pffsch it depends what they're about.
書籍
Erm... Snoopy books? Eric Schlosser's "Reefer Madness" is the best political type book I've read in a while, but "1066 and all that" is probably one of my favourite books. "Brave New World" is an awesome story, and obviously "1984". The Douglas Adams books I'm a big fan of, even if I never seem to get round to reading the 5th in that "Trilogy". Magnus Mills is a nutcase and I love him. Harry Potter I suppose... I used to love Philip Pullman as a kid too but the recent film I was a bit disappointed by :/ IT'S NOT CALLED THE GOLDEN COMPASS FOR GOD'S SAKE! Damn americans re-naming things!
偶像
El Hefe. He's fat, a damn good guitarist and a bit of a bum. Yet he gets paid for it and gets all the chicks. Whats'up with that?! And now he's married to a 26 year old... he's like 40! Git.
Travis Barker too. He's a legend all over. Then there's Banksy, the rebel! His art is pretty cool and he seems to think similar sorts of things that I do about the world. Good man.
I'm Ross. I love music. I like Ska and Punk and Ska-Punk and Ska-P. Everyone who has heard Ska-P likes them, maybe it's because they're Spanish and play Ska. I love reggae too, and DnB/electronic when I'm pished. I can ski, and do when I can afford it. I can play guitar, bass, and I'm trying to pick up keyboard (and failing). I'm skilled to near-geek level with computers and games. I'm fairly non-confrontational. I can scuba dive. I love Guinness and decent real beers. I don't read the Daily Mail.
My favourite place is Hawaii, and my second favourite place would be Jamaica because Ska was born there. I don't smoke, but I'm far from being straight edge. I love any oriental food and will probably be living off it for the next four years now that I'm at Uni.
A special mention should be made here for the parmo. It is the greatest food devised by man.
I recently moved to Newcastle to study Law at Northumbria. Having an awesome time, contact me if you need a floor up here to sleep on!
I also enjoy a bit of a rant now and then, check my uh... blog? It sucks but it's good to just write stuff down sometimes.

我想認識:
Stevie Wonder, Eddie Izzard. Nick 13 springs to mind... Obviously anyone from NOFX or Rancid, they're all awesome guys. Suggs from Madness. I think I'd only wanna hang with most of these people, they're a bit old to come to my slumber parties. (joke) Travis from Blink/Transplants/Aquabats/loads of other bands, cuz he's just the daddy.
Hey! Hope your well. as you've added my myspace I assume you are interested in my music. so if that is the case please, if you havn't already, join me on facebook!
cheers
Mike Gatto

Mate, you should totally go see Gaslight Anthem! What albums you got? Haha I'll push it on you. Random Hand are supporting Reel Big Fish

We apologise for the intrusion but we just had to tell everyone about the new Babylon Whackers album, 'Happy Days With...' which is being released on August 11th on Rebel Alliance Recordings. The Babylon Whackers is an all-star UK punky reggae party featuring Jonny One-Lung, Babar Luck and Majah Tunder... if you're a fan of the Clash, the Specials, Desmond Dekker, the Beat or the Filaments then this CD could very well be the soundtrack to your summer.
Click the banner for a free Mp3 and to pre-order the CD!

Thanks for the re-add. My old myspace was deleted about a year ago, so 25,000+ friends and hundreds of thousands of audio plays all erased. I'm not on this website often since building a new profile last year. I find it is almost all band adds now, all the real people have left for other sites like facebook, or who knows where else. I lost a lot of my global contacts, but i'm thankful everytime someone like you re-adds me ;)
Finished my exams =p yay! they didnt go as planned to be honest. I was so confident about my english exam and i did the first question really well...untill 10 minutes to the end i realised ther was another question on the back of the paper and i have lost like 25 marks =( sucks!
Argh! well at least ther over...for now. How are you doing?
