Brum brum party whuuuuut?

Went to visit some friends Saturday in Birmingham, had such a laugh, and you brummies are such a friendly bunch ain't ya? (P.S. if you were the cute tanned girl who held my hand on the train (from way longer than you needed to,to keep your balance) please get in touch, your hand were warm and soft XD ha!.
I had hoped to have photographic evidence of a night well spent for you, but it would seem my friend Laura has not been granted permission to upload them yet (due to the girl on girl smooches) or is just too damn lazy (or more likely busy XD) to upload them.
Eddies was a fantastic drinking Establishment 3 room ranging from mainstream metal to the dungeon downstairs playing industrial rock and goth metal get in tharr!.
Also if you were the friendly girl who asked if she could sit next to me at subside, i replied you can if you want but theres not much room so you promptly sat on my lap - thanks!
Finally recent songs played on blip.fm by me below (hopefully the lazy copy and paste job i've done will work)
TA!

Its friday and i'll party if i want to

so its Friday again, good weekend planned i wanted to get a weekends writing in, as this music stuff is not going to write its self. How ever I'm required to have a few drinks in Birmingham this weekend, and of course i would not want to disappoint.

Had an offer for photography from a model, who asked me if i was looking for work. (which I'm not actively seeking right now.) However she came up with an idea of doing several collaborations together around several themes in a avent grande style, which really got me going so i accepted.
Its going to be a fucker fitting that in with the writing, but i figure the sooner i finish writing the soon I'll have to find a band to perform with.

Birthday came and went thoroughly enjoyed it even if my friend Jen went to muse without inviting me, but we'll let her off,i guess.

I feel really driven to do some of the things i always wanted to do another project i wanted to work on was my old T shirt business, the thing is i do feel I'm taking on too much, but i guess i will never know unless i try.

This is who i am

the rock history event that rocked my world the most was...

Black sabbath at download 2005

it was stood in the crowd at Download 2005 watching black sabbath, people my dads age that are old enough to remember them in there prime, people my age who listened as kids in their parents car, and younger kids all just watching and singing together

the riff that really got me into rock was…




Marilyn Manson - sweet dreams

I've always been into rock but the riff this riff really turned me in to the music nut i am today i was walking down a mates drive way and him and another friend were playing this riff, no drums, no vocals just 2 guitars and i was hooked - eventually it would become the first song i would learn on guitar


my most regrettable phase was…


thinking dance music was "OK"

Being into industrial metal/rock and EBM music i kind of think there was always going to be some cross over in to the dance genre, this period lasted probably no longer than a few months when i was 16, thankfully I've grown up now and left that phase well behind me

when I need to feed my new music hunger I turn to…
Last.fm/TR/Blip.fm
combination really of last.fm listening to total rock radio and just listening to peoples blips i really think my music would be so so boring without these three places


without rock I couldn’t imagine…
Waking up in the morning
I couldn't imagine a day in my life with out it i wake up put some music on the t.v., on the way to work cd's in the car at work either the mp3 player/blipping to my listeners or like now a bit of rock radio. i think i would just be a zombie without it.

I first felt that rock n’ roll rush when…
I went to see pitchshifter at the London Astoria before the realise of ps.com album, was just a superb gig support from radiator (whatever happened to them) got me in to live music big time

If you get your hands on anything rock related it would be.....

Pretty much anything from the birthday massacre a keyboard would be awesome as i have enough guitars and basses to sink a battle ship

my current rock crush is.....
ah fuck, i hate these things, i guess i got a thing for Tori trash from the band patchwork grace, but I'm

Who are the people in your life who have made you who are today?

Music wise? my Dad got me into rock, like Zz top, Alice cooper etc from a very young age. My cousin introduced me to the cure at the age of 6/7 i love the music and hair styles and if im honest still do to this day.

Tell us a secret about yourself:

I'm half super villain on my mothers side.


thanks for reading i will put up today's play list later, until then you can tune in and listen to poisonbiggs
