PROFILE:
Tall, dark and devilishly handsome. Witty charismatic and very intelligent.
I sing and write songs with a raggedy arsed rock'n'roll band. I play guitar very badly but I'm a great singer, songwriter and a brilliant frontman at live gigs. And I'm incredibily good looking.
My music can be found on myspace. Look for Billy Oblivion & The Legendary DNA Cowboys.
I consider time not spent with book, guitar, friends or masturbating to be wasted time.
I do the Times crossword every day (and if I get it finished I do the Guardian crossword). I'm very, very, clever.
Favourite music includes Mott The Hoople /Ian Hunter, Brian Eno, Bowie, Patti Smith, New York Dolls, Lou Reed/Velvets/John Cale, Roky Erikson, Roxy Music - Glam/New Wave generally - Mud, Sweet, Gary Glitter. The Hollywood Brats, The Saints, The Adverts, The Vibrators, X-Ray Spex.
Also Melanie, opera, classical, Dolly Parton and Doris Day, Judy Garland, Bauhaus, Bob Seger, Meatloaf and Roy Wood.
Fifties rock'n'roll - early Elvis, Buddy Holly, Gene Vincent, Edie Cochran, Doo Wop, but, above all others, the king of Rock'n''Roll ........Little Richard!!! The Georgia Peach - The Quazar of Rock'n'Roll!!!! No-one can beat Little Richard unless he says please and pays you money.
Favourite authors include Howard Spring, Mick Farren, J.P.Donleavy, E. Nesbitt, Dave Gorman, Steven King, Anne Rice, Gore Vidal, Danny Wallace, David Gemmel and Anthony Burgess.
Favourite films include It's a Wonderful Life, The Wizard of Oz, Straw Dogs, Terminator, The Man Between, Sleepless In Seatlle, The Leningrad Cowboys Go America, Groundhog Day, Marji, The Railway Children and A Clockwork Orange.
My political beliefs tend towards Marxist Buddhism.
Over the past 5 years I have had quite a few operations, including a triple heart bypass, and I have spent the last 2 years out of work due to ill health. I intend to return to work in the near future but I am a bit of an old geezer so I'll just have to see how it goes. |
