About me:
I play & teach guitar, I love music, beer, whisky, all my friends, my VW bus, Megalithic stone circles, earthworks, crop circles, avocado..s, hummus, organic carrots and girls. I..ve been a veggie most of my adult life, support Greenpeace & do my best not to damage anything except my guitars. According to some friend..s, I..m a hippy & I..m clumsy, (what they call clumsiness, I call optimism...I..m practising the ability to walk through solid objects, but they don..t need to know that!). My hopes/dreams are that I..ll play music with my friends til my last days on earth & that one day politicians will be obselete because the world will be governed by truth, love, compassion, peace and global kindness. If this doesn..t happen in my lifetime, I..d really like to be invited on board an extra-terrestrial form of transport and shown how they do it in other parts of the universe. Or live here for ever with all the above!
(you may say I..m a dreamer).
Who I'd like to meet: Keith Richards, Tom Waits, David Icke, God, any extra-terrestrial beings, the girl of my dreams, whoever is making the crop circles.

Must get my arse in gear and see you performing somewhere.
Recently I filmed this at a gig I went to in Dublin by award winning Zoe Conway, she was joined by some of her colleagues from Riverdance days. Nice to see this impromptu dancing by them in their 'civvies'.
Hope it brings a smile…
