Read them when I have to, to learn things from them.
Liked The Hobbit, 1984 and Animal Farm before I discovered the guitar and other more exciting things to do.
Heroes
"Johnny Marr- this young guitar hero, the George Best of independent music, at a time when such a craft was unfashionably vilified outside the big hair arena of heavy metal- stood and played with such mastery and confidence and sheer style that it was hard to believe it all chimed forth from him alone."

Minor: That implies there is something I'm not good at. Nothing could be further from the truth.
About me: I play guitar in bands, teach it for money, the feeling of fulfillment and the ego boost, work in the Orange shop for the £££, and go to Uni for learnings and to make my brain work.
I also play football badly in the vain hope that this'll one day change, lift feeble weights with my feeble arms, usually hate going out (but still do it) and generally enjoy inadvertantly making my own life as difficult as possible for myself.
Who I'd like to meet: Mollie from the Saturdays, Johnny Marr, Scarlett Johansson, Paul Gilbert, Morrissey, Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant.
awww thats never too good! ): i'm glad i left college, it was the bain of my life. i prefer just working. uhh just had a quiet drunken saturday, i regretted on sunday though haha. yourself? x
oh dear. i think that's probably because i wasn't there. i am the party, clearly.. ooh if you're going back to uni you have to help me! i have no idea what to do or where to go to do it. it's maybe a bit weird that you're excited by it, beats working full time though! i've got a book i'm supposed to have read before i start but, after four pages, i've decided that law's really quite shit, which is a worry. what do you study? x
good to hear! um, not a great deal. i've been sitting in my room for the past few days looking at all my things but not finding the will to pack them. i'm moving out on saturday y'see! how about you bobbbyyy? x
Ha, nah dinney think so. There has been no sniding on my part!
Hmm... I'm going back to work 2mro, probably shouldn't be but dont want to be off any longer as I have only been there a couple of months! Im okay-ish anyway.... Totaly not contageous, (I dont think! Lolz...) Pure woulda been on Wed though when I saw you but if you are fine then you didnt catch it! Good times! :D
haha im pretty sure i was just misdirected... and yeah it probably is different now... im always meaning to get up at some point.
Yeah.. haha, you were? thats pretty cool. what were you wrking as? One of the best weekends of my life, the manager of that american joint, got talking to me and i ended up selling my extra tickets to his staff, he took my number.. turned out.. the radio 1 crew had been in that day and given him backstage passes.. so we ended up getting them. was amazing!!
haha thats so cute.. yeah they dont have much concentration do they. What made you want to get into that, extra cash?
even when its not my thing, i can still appreciate the talent etc.. x
Well The Smiths are a very, very good band to be influenced by.. sounds good :) and ill definitley have a little look at this other band, although i dont know if itll be my thing.. but ill give it a go.
How annoying.. and kinda rude :/ but hopefully the second person will show up.. how longs a session.. like an hour or something? Thats kinda cool you teach. Id love to have the talent to do something like that.
I honestly couldnt tell you.. aha.. it was a few years back for Radio ones big weekend.. but we went up a few nights earlier.. went to some american kinda restaraunt.. then.. to this street we were told was really studenty etc.. to be honest.. the bars werent that great. But i think we were just mis-directed. shame really... x
haha aw that sounds good.. what kind of music do you guys make? and yeah a little more exciting than mine.. although hopefully ill get a wee night out and a trip to the movies or something :) if not a whole lot of comedy central!
hahaha i cant say ive heard of it before.. i went to Dundee randomly one weekend, stayed in a travellodge thingy that had just been built.. and went out.. it was nice.. kinda cute little place.
All ive done today is go out a run and laze around, again..a whole lot of comdey central. There is just tooo many good shows! how's your day been buddy? x
Definitley worth it id say. Nice, what gig? I have no clue what "the rooms" is, haha... but that sucks it wasnt too good. Although youre right, better on the hangover i suppose.. that never really works for me, usually if the place is dire, i end up drinking more. Making the most of it you know.
Yeah ABC was actually so good. I havent been in over a month so i think thats why. Good crowd out too! It was either there or SubClub, which is always a good shout. Haha yeah the main room, its fine at the start of the night, but as soon people get on that dance floor.. its a losing battle.
Just going to chill out at my parents house.. some good food.. good tv.. you know the score :) Maybe back to Glasgow at the weekend or something. I bet your week is far more exciting than mine? x
