By this stage, you may be wondering what kind of a strange individual produced this page. Well, it was made by Stuart, an 18 year old from the suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria. For those out of the country, that is in Australia.

For those interested, here are some ultimately pointless facts about myself:

height: 6'2
eyes: blue
employment: yep, i'm employed
religion: umm, pennywise is the closest thing i've got to one
favourite food(s): lasagne, indian food
favourite drink(s): jack daniels, beer, red bull
sports teams: hawthorn (AFL)
favourite pieces of clothing: my grey jumper and my oldest metallica shirt
lifelong dream: to make a living out of playing music
current dream: to be on stage counting in the new millenium
i wish i could: cook
my favourtie subject in school was: music
language i'd most like to speak: german
car i'd most like to own: a holden
currently looking forward to buying: a holden (or another guitar)
marital status: single and loving it
uni course: computer programming, i'm sad to say
other interests: tennis, getting pissed with mates

If you're all lucky (or unlucky) i might put up a picture or two of me soon...

I answer the question "who is your favourite band" with Metallica. OK, so their new stuff is really just hard rock at best, but they still go off live and, above all else, I will never be able to utter the words "they suck" about them. That, I think, is the measure of a great band. Being able to always look back at their work and, no matter how bad their new stuff is, you can still think of the old stuff and say "they rock". Which is more than I can say for Powderfinger (for those non-Australians, I'm sorry if you don't quite get that, but it really is an Australian thing, maybe you could compare them to Live...)

I consider myself to be a fair musician, and I play both the guitar and the saxophone with varying degrees of proficiency, usually dependent upon my sober disposition or lack thereof. I also have the strange delusion that I can sing from time to time, but don't we all? For those interested, click here to find out what i play in terms of guitars and effects.

I'm in between bands at the moment, so if there's any drummers / singers out around Melbourne reading this who can't find a band heavy enough to play with, drop me a line.

To gain a little more insight into my somewhat eclectic tastes in music, I will now list the albums etc. that I currently own
