    Our Record Label is about to forgo business, and is trying to get rid of its stock before it does, so both our albums are now just £0.01 +postage, basically free from http://d67.bigcartel.com

    Thanks

Interests

  • General

    I am truly an individual - but not in an overbearing, loathsome, try-too-hard weirdo kind of way. I laugh hard but am sometimes dead serious.
    I enjoy writing about music and sharing my ideas. People write back to me and we both learn things; it's pretty cool.
    You have got to love checking out new artists. Who doesn't like being on the cutting edge of something exciting and new?
    Music (especially live music), Movies, Sports, Comedy, The Great Outdoors, Animals, and my three favorite adult beverages: Newcastle ale, Bass ale and Guinness stout. Visuals:
    I enjoy works of fine art and scribbles by children (have some of the best work of my friends' children on my fridge - their little faces light up when they see it there!).
    Digital media: I enjoy special effects and things that are made from well-written scripts.

  • Music

  • Movies

    This list could probably fill the hard drive over at My Space. Here are my favorites: 1. Bogart's Treasure of the Sierra Madre (in glorious black and white) 2. Pulp Fiction / Reservoir Dogs 3. The Usual Suspects 4. Heat 5. High Fidelity 6. This is cheating, but I like all their work: Anything by the Coen brothers. Anything by Wes Anderson. 7. Office Space 8. The Natural 9. Fight Club 10. Silence of the Lambs / Hannibal (Screw the Red Dragon!) 11. Rosencranz and Guildenstern are Dead. 12. Apocolypse Now 13. Dead Man *(scarcely seen black and white movie directed by Jim Jarmusch starring Johnny Depp with a special guitar soundtrack performed by Neil Young) 14. The Assignment 15. Bukaroo Bonzai and the Adventures from the Forbidden Zone - Yes, yes, yes (so insanely bad that it's decadent!)
  • Television

    24 and LOST are the greatest greatest television shows EVER. I have been watching a lot of DIRTY JOBS - The Discovery Series about jobs worse than yours... (no matter what you do for work.) It stars Mike Rowe, who is funny and has an excellent vocabulary. It's obvious that his education has gone to good use! (Favorite episodes: Charcoal factory, sewer treatment plant and tire recovery company)

    I also like the Phantom Gourmet (It's a Boston-area food and gourmet restaurant show. I watch it every Sunday morning.

    Channels: National Geographic, History Discovery and ESPN. That is all.
  • Books

    "Well, the rifleman's stalking the sick and the lame, Preacherman seeks the same, who'll get there first is uncertain. Nightsticks and water cannons, tear gas, padlocks, Molotov cocktails and rocks behind every curtain, False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin, Only a matter of time 'til night comes steppin' in." Bob Dylan - Jokerman
  • Heroes

    Humphrey Bogart, Cary Grant, Bob Dylan, Alec Guinness, Thomas Edison, Gary Oldman, Winston Churchill and Prussian Otto Von Bismark and Bostonians everywhere. In realizing our lives:
    "Everyone wants to be Cary Grant. Even I want to be Cary Grant."
    - CARY GRANT.
