Approaching my one-year anniversary in Sydney via San Francisco (and Boston, and central California, and a stint in Prague), having moved here with my Aussie born-n-raised partner.
Having a blast in our cool little house in Balmain, getting to know the area, messing around in my garden. Would love to make new friends to socialise with (and who knows what else, but really, it's mostly wanting to expand the platonic social circle).
I'm the world's worst homosexual - can't dress fashionably, won't go out on the dancefloor, would rather be in a quiet pub than a noisy club. Say hi and we can talk rock and roll, odd books, old movies, and the Sydney Swans.
Interests
Poetry, history, humour, rock and roll, travel, interesting movies (esp, silent film), animals, exploring Australia
Favourite Things
Fave Music
Tons of stuff, none of which gets me in good with my fellow Gays, Usually loud shatter-glass-at-30-metres guitar - noise/sludge/feedback (Boris rules), rockabilly, psychedelia, also a bizarre penchant for 60s/70s bubblegum, currently obsessing on 500 Miles To Memphis, a wonderful little band
Fave Movies
the movies of Ozu Yasujiro, Federico Fellini, Buster Keaton, um, and plenty of gay porn
Fave Books
Master & Margarita, Tristram Shandy, any good farce/satire - currently being blown away by the books and life of Ronald Firbank
