About Me |
|
| .. YouTube Video ResizerMarried to Liz, dad to Lucy and Sam, engaged in stubborn, but futile, resistance to getting older (at least physically) 6'2" deputy at a childrens home in Hull. Left field taste in music, off the wall, some may say odd, sense of humour. Loyal, intense, laid back, confused, focused, mortal.Norman Watt-Roy's pic is having a little rest. Not sure I like the new one, might look for something else, its meant to be me you know.I've come to like it now...might change it...might not....

My Interests |
|
| Promoting events at the Shire Hall,having a natter with interesting and interested folk,learning to play the guitar, but never quite getting around to it properly. My kids. Being true to what matters. click here to find out all things Howden Live - Diminishing returns equal dwindling enthusiasm and motivation, but!.....less = more?Look out for a possible rock/blues weekend in November...if the lovely arts council people give us some lolly...If nothing else we will have Geno Washington then...Hang on...can I feel a revival of interest?! | |
I'd like to meet:People with common ground, musicians, tech types, promoters, new audience members, anyone with nice as a middle name.One fantastic side effect of setting gigs up at The Shire Hall is that I get to meet all sorts of famous personages. Fantastic gig with The Sensational Alex Harvey for the last ever Cookridge gig, and I beat Zal Cleminson at pool! It doesn't get better than this! Played Zoot Money the other night too....won the first game and lost the next two...never should have suggested best of three!!YouTube Video Resizer |
|
Music:That horny old chestnut 'a bit of everything really' but mainly rock/blues/acoustic orientated stuff.Always had a bit of a problem with understanding why so many people seem to need to put label's on music and then judge it in a negative way, "Don't like this, don't like that" etc. Open ears = an open mind?..YouTube Video Resizer |
|
Movies:Not been to the pictures to see anything else but kids films for the last twelve years, but in a non-anorak kind of a way (honest!) Star Wars and Lord Of The Rings...YouTube Video Resizer /div |
|
Television:The Magic Roundabout, errmm, Dr Who, bound to be more. |
|
Books:Tom Sharpe, Graham Greene, Roddy Doyle, music biogs. Jean Paul Satre (but not for the last 30 years)...May remove this last bit...seems a bit wanky...YouTube Video Resizer /div ) |
|
Heroes:Musical ones: Alex Harvey, Joe Strummer, Bruce Springsteen, Richard Thompson, Pete Townsend, my dad (he whistled a bit)YouTube Video Resizer |

Evented it...bulletined it...other people bulletined it..blogged it!!!!!!!!!!! |
|
| With very little fear of contradiction it would be fair to suggest that this gig has the potential to be one of the best ever musical events ever seen at the Shire Hall.
When you consider a lot of th... Posted by Mark on Tue, 26 Feb 2008 12:08:00 PST |

Few and far between. |

Not really a blog, more of a record. |

| Something of a record rather than a blog this, the writer of the review reproduced below has effectively 'retired' from review writing for Howden Live events. Regrettable really, as he invariably ... Posted by Mark on Sun, 24 Dec 2006 06:05:00 PST |
