I play guitar and sing a bit in an awesome but rarely seen rock band called Sideburner,. We mainly play in South West London, specifically the Halfmoon in Putney, and have been described as possessing "Ragged Magnificence". We have a dodgy web site here.
I used to be the lead singer and guitarist in a 3 piece Hull band called Crazy Uncle in the early 90's. We weren't very good but had a great time. Helen played bass and "Beast" played drums. We once played the Scarborough Stage Door and only two people and a dog turned up. The dog didn't seem particularly interested even though he got in free. Our greatest triumph was playing to 700 people at Scunthorpe Baths. It's all relative.
I'm also a bit of a geek due to my computer skillz so that is how I earn a living. I work for Lotus Software explaining what is cool about collaborative technologies like Lotus Notes.
Hello People
I'm playing headline on saturday night @ the Cavendish Arms in Stockwell. Its £3 and should be a wicked night. I'd love to see you down there.

I know it looks like I’m exploiting our friendship in a cynical attempt to advertise my new Stand up Comedy CD. Recorded live at The Comedy Store, Just click it for details.
But really I just wanted to say Hi, you are my best friend, Honest.
