I'm into seeing live music, listening to old music, hearing new music, writing about music and the people who make it. there's a little (global) music distribution outfit that I write band bios for. there's a little school that teaches me editing and writing. there's a website where my interviews with rock and roll stars get posted. they put up with the gig and album reviews too. i have a copywriting business doing all sorts of stuff, including promotional material for album releasesOne day I'm gonna build a straw house within shouting distance of Melbourne with a few gum trees and that. There'll be a huge music room and recording studio and you can all come up and pay your board by cooking me great food, playing tracks, wearing funny hats and bringing G & T's.
