Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name!
Thanks for visiting my page. Not a lot to see yet, but I'm really liking the possibilities here. I'm in the process of finishing up my first 'solo' album. Some of you may remember me from "Glue: A Tribute to the Music of Duran Duran" that I released way back in 1999, and then the "Bangs...Sounds of the 80's" sets I produced three years later. I've actually done stuff since then (a few bands called Spy Matthews, Post Orgasmic Trauma, and Ready might ring a bell with 3 or 4 people across the globe). The last several years have been mostly corporate multimedia and making a name for myself in voice over. But the guitar, it can't be silenced! So I'm back into the world of my real passion, making some damned catchy pop music and wearing shiny clothes. :devil:


Screwed :The truth about life as a Prison Officer by Ronnie Thompson
Go buy this book if you like your british gangster type of films, released on Jan 24 it's available in all good book shops (most well known being Waterstones,WH Smiths, ASDA) and several online retailers. Check out Ronnie's myspace for more info who is in our top friends - http://www.myspace.com/ronnie_screwed and his website - http://www.ronniethompson.co.uk - You can read the first chaper for free on there as well. You may have read about it in Nuts magazine and The Metro newspaper this week as well. Check it out. Nice one, EP.


MILK
As seen in Rolling Stone & Cashbox Magazine, MILK's new album produced by Fran Ashcroft (Gorillaz, Dandy Warhols, Damon Albarn) in Los Angeles and Liverpool. MILK new album available on iTunes. "This is a new exciting band. You are going to dig what Milk is about." Alexander Laurence/ SF Burning Magazine Monochrome is definitely a mix tape must. Monochrome seems ready for prime time TV or to be included on the soundtrack for a motion picture. Each song on Milk unravels to reveal a new level of greatness to the bands sound. Justin Scro/ Cashbox Magazine Their mission is to lead a new trend of "New Alternative Psychedelia", combining the aesthetics of trippy hippie bands with a post-grunge appeal and a "forward thinking" vision. Campus Circle Magazine. A great first outing from MILK and definitely a band to keep an eye on. Colin Meeks, IndieLaunchPad.com The band's music is high energy and filled with fuzzy amped up sounding guitars along with whiplash causing drum beats. C.W. Ross/ Indiemusicstop.com MILK is good for you- that is if you like fuzzed-out, trippy guitar rock that simmers, boils and frequently explodes./ Entertainment Today


KunK on XFM
For anyone that missed our XFM session from wednesday nights X-Posure with John Kennedy, you can listen again by visiting www.xfm.co.uk. You can then hear the four tracks that we recorded for them in London on Tuesday along with a short interview with Will!


So I have this geeeetar...
And am having loads of trouble trying to get my fingers to get chords to go right. I think my fingers are too stubby to do a lot of things with it. Anyone have any advice or can point me to a video either on the web or dvd or whatnot that could help me out with this? I really want to play the damn thing LOL.


The circle of the fairies...
From: The man of the sand ...To the shoulders of that ustling shadow, took shape ghost of oxen with highest horn which become tame to the first gesture of its hand; then he spoke: "Don't you hurry so; if you don't watch the sands carefully you risk being swallowed up by them!" His voice was similar to a thunder, but deep, dark as if as you had never heard any; however I wasn't terrified. "I'm the man that you are looking for, I'm Aeropo the cowherd! "He held through the thick beard. "If you left to go all and therefore, you look at me straight in the my eyes you would see your birth, that's what you are breathlessly searching." "Where I would find myself?" I had the courage to ask. "In the game of the more hidden powers, in the true earth of Berrohè where the Court of the Displeased ones supervises on the three talismans, where the brought races haven't equal in the world: fast animals like the wind, with the arched and powerful neck, with the wide chest and the quivering nostrils, oxen with gilt backs and heated eyes, the place where the earth is opaque and heavy and the stables surpass the hills, where the hooves are shod with silver and the ringing bridles announce infinite lines."

Joseph Ferrante had his first guitar as a Christmas present when he was nine years old. Since then he's been learning all kind of music styles so as to apply them to his guitar playing. He is mainly a Rock musician.
Pod's Blues, After Obsession, The Beasts, The Primitives, Ferrante's Experience, Silver Shadows, The B3, Yesterday, Bowen West, Rock Ltd., etc., etc., are some of the bands he's played with.
 
He worked as a piano tuner and technician for Chappell, Yamaha and other firms, perfecting the art of making and repairing pianos.
Amongst his usual customers you could find The Royal Albert Hall, The Westminster Cathedral, The Royal Scots Guard Band, The BBC, The London Symphony Orchestra, The Queen Elizabeth Hall, George Harrison, etc., etc. He also worked for the National Artists Association, attending pianos on the national tours of artists such as Maurice Hasson, Judith Jaimes, etc, etc.
 
He stopped giving live performances with bands and is now exclusively dedicating himself to studio work. Ferrante uses real instruments, avoiding the use of computers, sequencers, etc., etc.
 
Three main reasons guided his life: God, Music and Romeo and Juliet. His major musical influences are: God, Yes, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, E.L.P., Jimi Hendrix, Beethoven and Bach.

Update your status on MySpace, Facebook and Twitter in one click
I'd been looking for a way to do this for ages. For lazy bands who want to promote themselves easily, or lazy people who can't be bothered updating all three profiles, I decided to write out the steps I took to get it working here. Make sure you're logged in on Facebook and MySpace before you continue... First I installed the Twitter application for Facebook. I checked the box to allow it to update my Facebook status, and that was all I needed to do. So now, whenever I updated on Twitter, I automatically updating on Facebook - which is all good. Then I fell across this genius stroke: Twitter Sync on MySpace. Install the application, log in to Twitter via the app, then change your MySpace status. If you look a little bit further down on the left of the page, you'll see the Twitter Sync application and the sync button. Just click on Sync! MySpace sends your status to Twitter, and Twitter (automatically through the first application you installed) sends your status to Facebook. If you're serious about getting your message everywhere, and have some time to spare, then check out Ping FM - it takes a lot more time to set up, but you can update multiple social networking sites at once & post blogs too. I hope you're all enjoying the Guitar Hero World Tour competition - in case you've somehow missed it, there's 10 copies up for grabs... it's the rockAffairs.com Christmas Special... I hope you enjoy it!


I love indie bands and producers!
Indie bands rock! Seriously, I can't get enough of them. I also love underground hip-hop, rap, and electronic dance music. If you are an indie artist, I salute you! Hopefully soon I'll get around to making an artist account on this site, but until then, feel free to check out my music at http://want-signed.com My artist name is VS23. Oh, and philly peeps, stop by on New Years Eve if ya want to see me rock the house! img img

Well, my bandmate and I have started writing. We have started writing lyrics and are about to start with the guitar work for the first song. "My World (Genocide)" It's a song about a kid who has been foresaken by everyone he called a friend.
