I am British, born in England sometime in the 1970s and a concert and festivals veteran, having been to shows all over the world.
Music, art and travel will always be my top passions (as well as health spas and massages!). After all these years, I'm still capturing live performances at headline concerts and festivals since 1996, when I contributed to an Oxford student newspaper and created my own print fanzines which I advertised in New Musical Express and Kerrang! Having lived in Sydney and Los Angeles within seven years since 2001, I am now back in the UK, but travel as much as possible, not just for festivals and concerts, but also to promote my retro rock 'n' roll style jewellery and accessories line Toxic Glamour, which is available to buy online and in selected stores.
Please note that not all photos featured on this site are taken from in the photo pit with passes and any photos taken before 2004 are not on a digital camera, therefore are not as good quality. All professional shots taken with photo passes and my reviews are featured on Virtual Festivals and Rock Midgets websites, links to my work on these sites are on the homepage.
