Favourite song/album: impossible to say. Erm. Amused to Death by Roger Waters just about sums it all up for me, but there's too much great stuff to mention, I've never been one for favourites...
Favourite Anathema song/album: no favourites again, all that is done is done and has its own place for me. The next one is me favourite. Or a compilation tape from the first demo to new demos!
Inspirations: my loved ones; music; nature; escaping from depressions. Sometimes when I wake up and see the sun and realise that I didn't die afterall.
Influences: John Entwistle, Steve Harris, Roger Waters and Cliff Burton.
Interests other than music: travelling; camping; driving; my many books; celtic culture and history and The Way of Wyrd; Pints of Guinness; me mates; football and football. And a shit load of other stuff men do
Personal goal: regular sleep wouldn't go amiss but I'm not one for goals, I live and Love and speak the truth and do my best and hope to enjoy earth as long as I can...
