Music, trees, cake, guitars, heaths, rugby, football and all thing that bring a smile including kites...
Music
Where do I start. Well, it started with The Bluetones in 1996 and I haven't submitted to pretensions since then. I love new bands, when they haven't a clue why they're doing it, they just have to. But Mario Lanza deserves respect too for his love of food if nothing else...
Movies
Superman II, Some Like it Hot, Once Upon A Time in America and everything else in between. zowie!
Television
Popular Culture is my vice, so I'll have a consonant please.
Books
Confederacy Of Dunces is close to my heart and I'm a Literature graduate darling. Velvet jackets and perfumed bowler hats xxx
Heroes
Oscar Wilde, Johnny Fontaine, Mick Hucknall and my dad.
About me: Well, erm, who am I? What a mad question. The answer to that isn't exactly simple so lets start at the beginning. I was born Joseph John Curran on May 20 1983. My mum was tired, dad was drunk and my sister Hayley was three years old and hasn't shut up since. I now live in London and I'm a journalist. I love lasagne, new bands, music heads and the odd lady here and there too. Will that do for now? Get to know me, make the effort and I'll try not to kick you. And with a touch of affection I bid you a smile x
It’s been far too long since I last said hello and so much has happened I thought it about time we did.
We’ve changed a lot, now we are an “UltraModern, post-electro rock, post-nu rave behemoth where Muse and Mansun meet a Massive Attack with Duran Duran pop sensibilities, louder guitars, and a stunning female front person/guitar virtuoso”, or so we have been told.
I’d love to know what you’ve been up to since we disappeared into the dark damp studio cave, let us know how it’s going, I’m always up for a chat! May your thoughts be Scarlet and your actions Blonde ;-) Dawn xx Scarlet/blonde

lee gorton and friends will be playing records with the usual fine blend of fucked up folk and mellow psychedelia.
on thursday november 29th we've got our flagship 'down at the redbricks' night which has now established itself on the english maid, a boat on the thames, pretty much opposite the houses of parliament.
the venue's amazing and these gigs always feature our toughest redbricks line ups and this one's no different..
