About me:
I'm primarily on here to try to flog some copies of my book, Coming Out As A Bowie Fan In Leeds, Yorkshire, England. (ISBN: 0-9554699-0-2) Available on amazon. I self published it under the publisher name of Armley Press just before Xmas '06. It's a playful romp through the head of a cocky, over confident teenager - involving a Bowie obsession and stepping out in make-up and effeminate clothing aged 13/14 (1977/78) in a tough, gritty, northern, English city - think The Full Monty/Billy Elliot/Kes but rougher. Covering topics such as: OBSESSION - BOYS IN MAKE-UP - PUNK - FOOTBALL - CHILDHOOD - BOWIE - MAD NUNS - GIRLS - LIFE - HOT WHEELS - LEEDS - CROSS COUNTRY - VIOLENCE - SEX - THE '70s - ADOLESCENCE - MY DEATH MySpace Layouts

Honestly, reviewers eh Mick??

Don't you just *hate* lazy journalism??

Dangerous appreciates your input re. The Malachi - Church request.

A date will be set as soon as the band can get it together to all be in the same place at the same time. Damned muso's.

Anyway you are a gentleman.

Dangerous loves you.

p.s. Drop Dangerous a copy of your book in to Renaissance baby.

He will cross your palm with silver.
