   Spoz's Blurbs
About me:
This is Spoz. Quite possibly THE Spoz, A Spoz, or just one of many entities who otherwise chooses to call himself "Spoz" for tax reasons. Spoz. Yeah fucked if I know either, I just came up with this shit when I was 11 and it stuck. Spoz. Not to be confused with Spod, Spock, Spaz or Spooj (although all those are equally as awesome) and no this is NOT my real name, but I am THE Spoz who got this myspace so all the rest of you Spozs out there can all go suck a duck's twat (and no I'm not supplying you with the duck). Spoz. That's me. There are many of us. We rule the world in secret.

Spoz is a mischief maker, prankster, trickster, trouble maker, and grand provocateur. Spoz loves to create. Spoz also loves to destroy. Often at the same time for his own amusement. Here's just a few things he may occassionally claim responsibility for..

SPOZ's RANT - probably the WORST excuse for rock photojournalism you've ever seen. Gleefully dousing the Adelaide scene in petrol and setting it on fire each week. Features live photos, videos, band reviews both local, interstate and international and me making an absolute dick of myself in between. Some may claim this is just a thinly veiled excuse to inflate my own ego, and you'd be dead right. It's side splittingly hilarious, wildly hallucinogenic, mostly fictional and utterly shite. Don't EVER read it!

The Adelaide music scene: to most of you it may be nothing more than a speed bump between Melbourne and Perth but to us it's a way of life. Feast within on all its dysfunctioning splendour as we bring you the highly satirical, laughingly fictional and intellectually imbecile tales from our rock 'n roll wasteland..

Back when I actually HAD talent I also used to be an illustrator. I created this shit with pen, pencil and paper, and yes I was completely and utterly batshit insane for doing this. Click on any of these thumbnails below and you'll be taken to my Deviant Art website full of this shit. Or at least it would be if I ever bothered to update it. It's awesome! Take lots of acid and it'll probably kill you! So um.. yeah, I wouldn't recommend that.

#140 - Don't Try This At Home #145 - About to Paint the Town Red
#147 - Signs of Life Amongst The Dead #148 - Psychedelic Santa Synthesis

On the odd occassion I also like to pretend I'm a wildly talented graphic designer. clearly I'm not, I wouldn't know the first thing about this shit, but look at all the wacky colours!! Here's some CD Covers I've designed in the past (click thumbnails to view full-size image). And yes, I can be hired for this shit if: (a) you're a local or interstate band, (b) you're completely insane, (c) you can actually afford my ridiculously cheap rates.

Subwoofer - Claustrophobic (EP) Tendahook - Transition (EP)
Brainkiller Recordings - Music From The Jilted Generation Volume 2 (Album) Booster - The Real Deal (Album)

Speaking of such, here's some wacky posters I've also designed over the years (click thumbnails to view full-size images). I've done heaps of this shit, I'm ridiculously cheap, and no I never update this section. Gimme a buzz if you want me to whore your junk!

Subwoofer Poster - July 23rd 2004 Taught By Animals Poster - August 2007 Tyger Tyger Poster - October 3rd 2008
Best Of Local Anaesthetic 4 Poster - 2nd March 2007  (trainspotter's note: not final lineup, as it changed at least 3-4 times after printing) Stix N Triggaz III Poster - June 1st 2006 Hip-Hop Mania Mixtape Launch Poster - July 14th 2007

For many years I was also in a pissy little band called "Subwoofer". We made music. We played live. We did rooftop raves. We were electronica. Quite possibly punktronica. Quite possibly breaks, bigbeat, jungle, but mostly shit. Just for laughs I started up a Triple J Unearthed site recently and put some of our worse crap up there. I'd advise you NEVER to visit our site. No really, I don't even know why I'm mentioning it now.

don't visit us on Triple J Unearthed.. we suck! :) 

But of course the MAIN reason all of you may know me for is my live gig photography. Not necessarily because I'm any good at it, but simply because I'm fucking everywhere every weekend doing it (I'm also on Fasterlouder!) Yeah I'm THAT guy! Maaaan you must hate that guy! Anyhoo, here's one of those shittyarse myspace slideshow thingies of my best photos just so I can look infinitely more badass than I really am. I mean no shit, how ROCK does this shit make me look? FUCK I'M AWESOME!! WOOOO!!

I also do a shitload of live music videos each week, which I've stored on youtube here.

and finally some shiny websites and myspace sites I've either designed or "pimped"..
SPOZ's RANT | ROCK THE VOTE | HILLSIDE RECORDINGS | BOOSTER |
THE KEMP BROTHERS | PRODUCERS BAR - and yes, I can pimp yours too..

And no, despite the fact my display image makes me look like a cross between Aphex Twin and Trent Reznor: Spoz is NOT into Scandanavian metal, goth chicks, emos, or your shittyarse death metal band (no matter how many times you try to add me). Spoz loves the people. Occassionally the people love the Spoz. Come say hi sometime! :)

Who I'd like to meet:
Artists, Musicians, Photographers, Designers, Cartoonists, Film Makers, Actors, Comedians, Fashion Rejects, Philosophers, Stoners, Intergalactic Tweakers or pretty much anyone else out there who's ever been creatively insane enough to do seriously freaky shit and put it out there for the wonder and ridicule of others :)
