I'm a drum'n'bass drummer, street press editor and writer, casual prog bomber and producer, retired film & TV slave, occasional promoter, I'm a bloke, I'm a yobbo, and my best mate is Robbo - read more here---> Kris-Ko @ Sidechain Music.
Highlights of my life so far include falling in love (twice), completing a double-major @ Uni and actually using it, The Raiders winning the '89 Grand Final, playing Big Day Out/Parklife/Myer Music Bowl/Future Music Festival, recording an album, hitting the Berlin Love Parade, going to Disneyland, seeing Roger Waters @ Coachella, releasing a timeless mega-bomb, hot air ballooning over Cappadocia, supporting The Bird, chopper-riding over the Grand Canyon, driving through Sky Valley listening to Sky Valley, working on The Proposition, and hosting the loosest 30th Birthday Party of all time.

Hey Kris! Yes...I definitely remember that you spoke highly of Jaytech while waiting in line for the Armada party. I'm still living in the DC area. Depending on how much I get done (preparing for a move to a new place), I might go see Jaytech and Above&Beyond! If I end up going, I'll let you know my impressions of Jaytech! Hope you have a great weekend! Cheers! :-)
also, I have decided that I myspace should never be deleted again because there are FAR too many hilarious posts in both of our comments sections to destroy forever! I was really funny back in 2006. I think you were too. Good times lol
Right, so I thought I deleted my myspace. But apparently I haven't. Even though I clicked on the confirmation email and everything. I think it's a sign from the gods.
