About Me:
Outside of work my life revolves around music, both as a fan and a musician, and a number of geeky hobbies and activities. Feel free to ask and I'll divulge more!
I have a love for history and cultures (one of the reasons I moved to York) , the countryside (especially the coast, I was born within spitting distance of the sea and have been landlocked since the age of 4 but the love of the waves has never left me), camping, mythology, philosophy and finding excuses for fancy dress parties!
I’m a gamer, both on computers/consoles or sat round a table with friends.
I'm bearded, tattooed, a bit of a geek, and proud of the previous three.
What I’m doing with my life:
Adventuring and exploring.
Spending as much time with friends as possible.
Getting back in to some old hobbies.
Making an effort to cross things off my 'to-do in life' list.
Learning to play my didgeridoo (something from the above mentioned list)
Long term, I am trying to make my dream of having my own live music venue a reality.
I’m really good at:
Making new friends.
Rocking out
Geeking out.
Munchkin
Cooking on a BBQ.
The first things people usually notice about me:
My ‘All Weather’ leather jacket, I love it so much that I only part with it when it finally gets baking hot or freezing cold and something more appropriate is needed.
My beard, hair and tattoos.
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Books: Sci-Fi of various subgenres, Fantasy, classics such as The Art of War, Paradise Lost etc.
Movies:
I'm mostly into supernatural stuff (not Twilight!), anything with vampires, werewolves, zombies etc makes me happy!
I'm also rather partial to sci-fi and comedy.
TV: Arrow, Game of Thrones (Winter is coming…), Falling Skies, nature and history documentaries, QI, Mock The Week, Monty Python’s Flying Circus, Black Adder, Red Dwarf, Firefly, Stargate SG1, Castle.
Music: Rock, Metal, Punk, Ska, Reagge, Folk. I'm pretty open minded musically but can't stand Pop or modern R&B (classic Rhythem and Blues from the 1920s and 1930s is awesome though)
Instruments I play: Guitar, Bass, Didgeridoo.
Current Games: Skyrim, Tomb Raider, Minecraft, GTA V.
Comics:
Witchblade, The Darkness, Artifacts (Pretty much anything Top Cow puts out to be honest), Spawn, The Walking Dead.
Food and Drink:
Hot curry, Chinese, Sunday roast, steak, BBQ, Thai, chocolate, creamy desserts, c**ktails, beer, white wine, port, mead.
The six things I could never do without:
In no real order:
1: Music
2: My friends
3: Some form of internet connection
4: A good book
5: Plans
6: Hope.
I spend a lot of time thinking about:
Music
Gaming
Deeper things
The air-speed velocity of an unladen Swallow.
On a typical Friday night I am:
At Work.
When I have a night off and decide to venture out in York I can be found in Evil Eye or Gibson's, this isn't exclusive to Fridays! I tend to travel for gigs as well if there is something good on.
I'm also quite happy sat at home with friends, gaming or otherwise.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit:
I have a phobia of polystyrene, and won't go into a room where there is some. I have no idea why I'm scared of the stuff but it’s horrible!
I almost always wear odd socks.
I’m looking for:
Girls who like guys
Ages 24–34
Located near me
Who are single
For new friends, long-term dating, short-term dating
You should message me if:
We have things in common and you think we'd get on. I'm pretty open to getting to know all sorts of people!
