Introduction
Hello, and welcome to my user page. Not entirely sure what to write so I'll simply go on about myself for a while.

Music
My main passion in life is music of almost any variety. In general I listen to any kind of pre-1990 punk and metal of a similar time period. However, lately I have been listening to a lot of acoustic music, such as Damien Rice and Jeff Buckley; whilst also discovering the delights of prog-rock, more specifically Barclay James Harvest and Hawkwind. In addition, I like some emo/indie, for example Bright Eyes and Death Cab for Cutie.

I also play guitar and sing in a band called Fiona and Me. We recently played our first gig, which was, in my opinion, a great success.

Current Top 5 Songs

Gold Mine Gutted - Bright Eyes Cafe Del Mar - Energy 52 Grace - Jeff Buckley Delicate - Damien Rice Heartbeats - Jose Gonzalez

Heroes
At the moment, my hero is none other than the vocalist/guitarist of Barclay James Harvest, John Lees.

One of my life heroes is Lance Armstrong. A cycling fan, I have read all 3 of his books repeatedly and have found them an inspiration. If you haven't read them, I recommend you do so!
