How do you how you see you self?
Well, I'm not incredibly tall or bulky, but that doesn't bother me none. I've never been the athletic type, and I guess its just good genes that keeps me from gettin' any bigger. I've got my brown head of hair from my mum, which I don't usually worry about much. I've got my father's brown eyes though and I've been told I got his nose too. I think I drew the short end of the stick with that one. I know I haven't the best set of teeth, but my parents aren't dentists. I don't really care much about whether or not I'm the stereotype most Americans make of us Brits. They make stereotypes for a good reason.
I'm not too much of a rebel. I haven't any piercings or tattoos, and don't really plan on getting any. My stupid teenage mistake was picking up the slim habit, which I still have. Its a horrible habit to pick up, but I never really got the cig talk as a teenager, so blame my parents for that one. I like to carry myself with confidence, so you won't find my posture withdrawn in any sense. At the same time, it doesn't mean I'm not relaxed either. I just always make sure that people know I like who I've become, and am not afraid to let it show in my body language.
Attitudes can kill too, what is your personality?
I'm not exactly sure how to answer that one, but I'll give it me best shot. So, I'm the only spawn of two wealthy individuals so I've had what I wanted for most of my life materially. I know that I'm spoiled, and I also know that its a side of me I'm not exactly thrilled about, but its how I was raised. I can be selfish and stubborn, but not in the studio. It is there that I keep things incredibly professional, mixed with a bit of fun, of course. There are some people that have to earn my respect, but those in positions of power already have it from me. I'm not one for a great amount of planning outside of the studio, so I've been told I'm relatively spontaneous. I'm a quirky guy and sometimes I talking about utter rubbish, but its all just to keep myself busy. I'm incredibly dedicated to my work, and can be a bit of a perfectionist, but usually it rewards me in the end. I like being the center of attention, but when it comes to the band, the whole comes first, or at least me and my co-writer do.
When it comes to new people I meet, I'm usually very outgoing with them. I like to make friends, no matter how good of friends we will end up becoming. I like to socialize, and can be a very outward person. I don't usually share many of my feelings outwardly, but if I do its usually through song. As far as I can tell, people like to talk to me because I entertain them in a sense. I don't have close friends with only one or two exceptions, since I can have trust issues. Having two parents with demanding jobs has led me to a life of mistrust and the occasional abandonment issues. I suppose that's why I like surrounding myself with people, even if they aren't the best crowd to be around. I'm always willing to try new things, although that's what led me to my cig addiction, so they aren't always the best things. I tend to learn from my mistakes, but sometimes I need to have reality slap me in the face before I come back in.
Even though I'm a pretty easy guy to get along with, I have had a few issues in the past. I don't think it helps that I can be rather stubborn and opinionated which leads to some nasty words from time to time. Some call it narrow minded, but I call it 'whatever works'. I'm very confident in my musical abilities as well as who I am as a person, and I think people can tell that. Sure, I've got a bit of arrogance in me, but the way I see it, sometimes just a little bit of it can be a healthy thing.
How do you usually dress?
Well, I suppose it depends on what day of the week it is and what I'm doing. If I'm just hanging in the loft, I usually just wear lounging clothes. Whatever is in the top of the drawer usually works, as its not like I've got anyone to impress there. If I'm heading out to the studio, I usually make a better effort to look more appealing. Still its usually just a good pair of jeans and a nice tee and some comfortable pair of shoes. I find my wardrobe to be rather normal for a simple man with no exact interest in what I look like when I'm out.
As for shows and the weekend, its much different. I find myself caring much more about the final result. I've usually got my sleek leather jacket with me, although I also have a sort of military green colored jacket I wear often. I usually wear a decent set on jeans, one that really makes these chicken legs of mine look decent. I usually throw on some of my nicer rings on, since I'm fairly certain my hands look dreadful without a few of 'em. I try and look classy, but not too british. Being in L.A. and all, I would hate be the lad sticking out in the crowd for being overdressed, although from what I've seen around here, it isn't incredibly difficult to look normal.

So I wanna know about your past, present, and maybe even future?
There isn't much excitement in my past. I was born in Liverpool England. My mum ended up with complications that kept her from giving me any siblings, so they were sure to pay attention to the one they got. I grew up in high class society, but not the way I can see you imagining it. My parents made plenty of money, but most of it went into three things. The first was our rather large estate which at times was just too big to have only three people living in it. The second was my father's Polo team he had owned which was fun to watch, but it was always brought up in conversation which I never really cared to go into. The third was my education. Needless to say, I was going to get the best education money could buy. Well, that and the best musical instruments I wanted.
Saying that, I went to private schools through my childhood, although I never really made any incredible friends. Most of them were too posh for my liking or were just straight up arrogant. There were a few tolerable lads, but they never lasted long in the neighborhood. It wasn't until I tried to go to college that I met some decent mates. I ended starting up a band with the lot called The Pits, and it was alright at first. I was playing lead guitar for them, although they didn't want me taking a larger role than that. So I would take it upon myself to steal the spotlight on stage, which wasn't very hard considering the mate on vocals wasn't the most charismatic. My father hated the idea of me being in a band, and I can remember the countless arguments and threats about funding me and how music wasn't going to take me anywhere. All he wanted from me was for me to attend medical college, but I had no desire to become like him. I think I kept in the band just to spite him, and I started taking business classes at the university.
It was my full intention to stay at the university, but when the band was headed off to a small music festival in Northern England I thought there was no turning back. While there, I had the time of my life. Getting to know all those musicians was just fantastic, but I never knew that it would get me out of England. After one of our biggest gigs, I got around talking with a bloke about music and the like. Turns out he and I had the same goals in our music and we got along swimmingly. So from it, I left The Pits, not looking back for a second. Its been worth it so far, even though my pockets a bit lighter than before. At least we have something to work with now, but I'm hoping we can get signed and start in this fantastic music industry in the States. Honestly I don't care whether or not we do make it, because I get to do what I love to do, and that is share my music with others. [/size]
