My name's Josh, this isn't really a band profile, more of a personal thing, but I wanted to be able to put my songs up on here too. I'm a sound engineer, producer, promoter, whatever based in sunny Darlington. I run a small PA and production project called Orphic Audio, I do bits of promotion too, most recently for the Dissonance night on Fridays at Bacchaus, and I play in a couple of bands, the main one being Grand Guignol. I also take pictures around nights and gigs when I can, I'm a rubbish photographer but I'm mint at photoshop so just take hundreds and edit the best ones. Oh, I also have a forum, and hopefully at some point an actual website to attach to it - www.northeastresistance.co.uk/forum - It's mainly there to help support the local music scene but feel free to go talk about any old shite on there if the mood takes you.
What else? I'm terribly easily distracted and have the attention span of a small duck, which is something my loving friends have had to put up with for aeons, I can talk about things you really don't care about for hours upon end, and I am a massive geek who loves techy stuff and has far more games than is good for a young man to own. The flip side of this is that I can be of use to society by my almost supernatural ability to fix random stuff with no prior knowledge as to how they actually worked - PCs, guitars, effects units, games consoles, pretty much anything except relationships, which just confuse me with their lack of wires, logical components and reset button. I'm sure I'll figure one out at some point though.
What up? I found this website and thought i'd tell everyone, it shows you if anyone at school likes you... I dont know how it works but its really cool, its revealed a few people who have had crushed on me FOREVER, i called the person up and it was TRUE!! You gotta try it!
hey rock boyo hows u long time no see will ave to pop rnd some time, actually just remember u did see me the other week or something very quickly wen i flew by u in my car. x
Hi there I'm good, just coming to an end of spending the past year in beutiful brisvegas, down under! Start heading home to the wetness next week with a quick stop over in bkk...don't want to leave tho love it here :( How are you? What have you been up to? Hope your well
Now then! We've had a lot of peeps asking for photos of our night - well if you've been there in the past few weeks we've got some up on our myspace now! But wait! There's tons more hosted on our new forum's gallery, (here - www.northeastresistance.co.uk/forum - click on gallery at the top for pics), dedicated to not only dissonance but anything goin on in this shithole we call Darlo and the surrounding areas. It's all kind of under construction as we get some features sorted out and stuff but feel free to join the forums, check out the pics (which we'll be updating all the time now), and post random crap about whatever you feel! We want to get a real community going here where everyone feels welcome so get involved!

cheers for adding wer band Josh. ive heard that if you do the move LR1 back back forward down you can pull off a killer drum riff on the playstation. i think the drummer whips off the high hat and frisbies them causing double decapitations whilst simultaneously causing multiple rim shots and para diddles to the sternum. nice to find you on here anyway. OL. Lucy's Drowning.
Don't forget Fuzzbox this Saturday at The Forum featuring indie ska boys The Talks and dark, electro rock'n'rollers The Officers!! Hope you can make it, will be a quality night of live music!
