Hi there all!
No idea how i got here, but it looks like a cool place nonetheless
Anyhow onto the introductory questions...
1. What do you do? (Hobbies, job)
Well im currently at college, but i finish in a couple of weeks. I work part time as a barman, full time once i finish college till i sort out what im doing next.
In my spare time i spend most of my time on the PC (gaming, watching movies/tv shows, browsing, working with photoshop etc) but thats mainly because i dont really share many interests with my mates. Though i am starting to meet some new people, metalheads in particular.
I love to chat aswell, get me talking on a good topic and you wont stop me
A possible upcoming interest is also Airsofting.
2. Where are you from?
West yorkshire in the UK.
3. Who is your favorite author?
Well im ashamed to say i dont read books :/ Does PCZone count? :P
4. What are your favorite films?
Ack this is such a tough one. Hmmm...Matrix trilogy, Spider-Man 1-2, Blade 1, Back To the Future trilogy, Star Wars 1-6 (yes i actually liekd 1-3 :P), Batman 1-2 and so many more....
5. What music do you want played at your wedding?

I've only just started to really become aware of gothic culture (beyond the obvious) thanks to my Australian friend whos a Goth, and also in part to my musical tastes. I dont own anything Gothic but soon i should own some gothic influenced t-shirts (bought a load from here today...
http://search.cartserver.com/search/...EEVES&go=GO%21) and maybe some very minutely Gothic influenced trousers (
http://www.x-tra-x.de/bilder/artikel/21055a-g.jpg). I listen to Gothic Metal but i doubt thats quite the same as what you guys listen to. I'm not really into Gothic music that doesnt even have a hint of Metal in it (thoguh thereoculd be exceptions, who knows!). I am a HUGE fan of Gothic Metal though, take the list here,
http://www.last.fm/tag/gothic%20metal, i like every single band/artist on that list bar about 1 maybe 2.
Well that pretty much sums me and gothic culture up. Would you say im very slowly turning to the gothic culture or would you just say i like the gothic artwork and gothic influenced music? I'm not trying to be a Goth or anything, its just i dotn really understand the whole concept and culture a great deal, and just wondered where you put me (turning Goth, not at all a Goth, into Gothic influenced things, etc), as i have no idea myself and im just curious. I've always been a bit of an outcast really i guess. I've always had plenty of friends but ive never really into a "group" or anythign and usually just hang aroudn with whoever shares the most interests with me or who i get on with best, but ive always felt sorta out of place (not quite fitting in with metalheads, or the skaters, or the indie guys, or the geeks (mean that in a nice way), or whatever), im just trying to find my place i guess.
Well thats enough of me ranting, you've probably given up half-way down anyway :P
Nice meeting ya all!
