hey guys, so have been told off for hiding in the shadows and not doing a proper introduction....goes to the naughty step in a sulky teenage manner.
well what can i say- been in the fortunate position of knowing steve all my life (39yrs and counting) and have been privileged enough to watch the project develop over the past 2 years and now hit fruition.
i used to DJ for Steve when he was in 'The Mystic Deckchairs' back in the 80s but since then i have got a proper job-hahahaha- not really (but i aint gonna tell you what i do just yet- will scare you off)
must read books- Great Apes- Will Self, And the Ass Saw The Angel- Nick Cave, anything by JG Ballad, Focaults Pendulum- Umberto Eco and the list goes on..... ....and dont even get me started on music- have far too much vinyl- well actaully thats a complete lie- i just cant stop buying it.
unfortunatley some of you will know me from the Barfly as that horrible guy who wouldn't let people upstairs due to me having orders- i only went to see the gig and ended up being security and dealing with the Barfly management to try and keep the place open later- but hopefully will have more time to chat at Scala
anyway enough waffle
big hugs
Pete x x x

Hey Pete - welcome (again) to the forum! Don't worry, we admins don't bite ;D I wouldn't worry either about confessing what you do for a living; forum members have a wide range of jobs here - some very 'straight' and some not so! I'm a big fan of Will Self's books: I think my favourite is 'How the Dead Live'. I always say he writes the books I wish I could write, if only I had that kind of freakish imagination. And like Robyn, I only remember an awesome evening at the Barfly Looking forward to seeing you at the Scala, love Stella xxx Edit: I always try to give new members a karma point for writing an introduction, so consider yourself duly exalted

Hi Pete, welcome to the forum I'm Sam *waves* and I echo Geo's sentiment about the vinyl. cds and mp3s are more convenient, but vinyl is just the best..... you can never have too much, just sometimes not enough space to store it all ;D poetress x

^ Haha yes! I love how the forum (and even the admin team) has such a wide age-range: from 16 up to 43 (me!) - it just shows how age is just a number in LAR-LAR land *wonders whether she can use her admin powers to make Pete confess to how he plies his trade* ... or alternatively we can just get you drunk on 9th June and get it out of you that way ;D

Hi Pete, I'm Jen. Sorry, was me who was responsible for locking the thread you opened. It's a terrible thing a little adminly power - ;Dmuahhaha.
39 years. Are you Steve's secret twin?
And you can't tease us like that - we will all want to know what you do for a living now.
Yeah I know what you mean about 'don't even get me started on music' - by the time you get to 40ish if you've lived at all you're gonna have pretty wide music taste.
Hope to catch you at the Scala - and please, there are no naughty steps here and preferably no sulky teenagers either.
Bye for now
Jen x

We have people much older than 43 on here - they just won't admit it ;-)
Hiya Pete and welcome to Heaven (& Hell)
- I know what you do for a living but I will never tell.
See you at Scala man.

Pete, I'm sorry for spamming your thread but - having read Jeremy's post I am in shock - do you mean I'm not the oldest person on here? Edit: aha - Mark (Jeremy) is 45 - nice one!

Ahem. Believe that at your peril! (I'm joking, don't worry. Mostly ) Welcome to the forum Pete. I too don't remeber any horrible / grumpy people at the barfly, only lovely ones! Great night wasn't it ;D Now I really want to know what you do for a living though! Seriously, you can't say something like that and expect us to be satisfied without an answer! Thats just mean Have a great time at Scala, Amy xxx

hmmmm- nosey bunch here- ok the truth be told am a psychiatric nurse.... ....but Zee if you still wanna get drunk then i will reveal more secrets hahaha and yes Will Self definitely has a warped mind- have you read cock and bull stories- have tried to write but whats the point when you got authors like that (am now disillusioned and disgruntled) Mark -you dont look a day over 35 (ahem) hmmmm zombie pirates? ? what a strange world - i suppose i am a psychic-psycohtic-pothead-pixie with homocidal tendencies- or maybe not? anyway thanks for the welcome- tis strange i now feel like i was 15 again when i joined the cure fan club- oooh the nostalgia Pete x
