About Me |
|
| I've lived in Dublin for years but I grew up in Australia.
I write songs and I'm into music, words and unseen forces.
Also, I'm curious...my life started out digging up stuff in the backyard and looking under rocks by the sea for signs of life...nothing has changed...

Growing up with Abba & The Ramones |
|
| My brother Andy was cooler than I was.
He realised that listening to The Ramones was a far more credible option in the long term than starting out a musical education with ABBA. In all fairness thou... Posted by Rory Faithfield on Tue, 19 Sep 2006 03:48:00 PST |
