About me:

Who I'd like to meet:

NO IGNORANT BONEHEADS...other than that...who knows. If anyone out there is interested in some amazing blogs please go to: www.greengalloway@blogspot.com and give Alistair your support. If you are interested in a seminal record label from the early '80's please check out my other myspace site ALL THE MADMEN RECORDS. One of the bands on this label were The Mob, please check out my third site THE MOB. If you are interested in classic Italian scooters check out my fourth myspace site NEW ORIGINALS SCOOTER CLUB. Also a site I helped out with, worth checking, THE APOSTLES. The following site has some great rare music from cassette or 7" singles uploaded on it by yours truly (ahem!) www.killyourpetpuppy.co.uk - Check out some of the bands on this site links and downloads! Peace x
