Funk, Soul, Hip-Hop, UK Garage/Grime/Dubstep/Bassline, Nu-Soul, Broken Beat, Disco, House, RnB, Reggae, DnB, some Jazz, Blues, Folk, Old Skool Rock, some Indie/Punk/New Wave stuff, 60s pop-rock/psychedlia, Rock'n'Roll, and all sorts of other shit that probably hasn't been invented yet.
About me: This page is going BANG in your FACE.
Wotcha Geeks! I'm The Colonel. I divide my time neatly between playing the bass, DJing, making beats, monkeying around in an office for a living, getting shitfaced, partying, spending all my money on vinyl, and pretending to be good at stuff.
I live in Sheffield, which is great even though it hasn't got half the fancy stuff that L**ds has (who need a Harvey Nicholls anyway?). Folks may say that Sheffield is crap for a city of its size, but if you want true crapness, try spending the first 18 years of your life in Ipswich - a town whose only gifts to the world are sugarbeet and a substandard football team (oh, and Nick Heyward out of Haircut 100 - remember them? Hmmm, didn't think so).
Since I originally wrote the last sentence, Ipswich has become world-famous - for ... Serial killings. I rest my case.
Luckily I got out of Ipswich when I came to Sheffo as a student and found it was party central. BLLAAATTT!
Due to a family joke, "The Colonel" is now my musical alter-ego, by which I DJ and produce stuff (check here). Unfortunately, the Colonel is now a much more popular and well-liked chap around the city than the real me, and I no longer get invited when he goes to parties.
Three ineteresting facts about me:
1) I co-run a club night, the Shakedown, (see friends)
2) I am the bassist in a 9-piece roots funk band, Grey Cooper Love Party (see friends)
3) I once played a cyberman in an episode of Doctor Who
4) Fact number three is bollocks. This is true. So that makes three facts. I don't owe you shit!
Who I'd like to meet: Nutters, Ravers, Music-y People, sexy girls, anyone who has ever spunked in a curry before serving it to Jim Davidson, and anyone who is NOT in a third-rate indie band.
I like most people, so add away, but please be prepared to talk to me if you're going to add me!
I'm really sorry for acting like such a complete and utter anus last time I saw you at Dulo, I don't remember any of it, but I've been told I was being a proper tit, I'd been on a three day bender with no sleep and was in a right 2 and 8, .....never again....EVER! sorry again, take care, Tom.
