About Me

I do enjoy a good rant when the mood strikes.

Hi I'm Gemma and I am a dreamer. Not a bad thing, but it can be. I want to do so much, but never seem to reach my goals. I'm left handed - which means I'm supposed to be creative, some days I am, most days I'm not. I write, I take pictures.
One day I'll write a movie - when it happens I'll let you know. Music is what I love, hate, enjoy and despise. I know what I'm talking about sometimes.


Right now I'm co-running a UK-based music website with 2 of the greatest people I've ever met. We're doing well, managing to get to cover most if not all of the shows we want. I'm one of the 2 of us responsible for interviewing and reviewing, although we have guest contributors on occasion. So far I've been able to meet some of the nicest people in the world and I'm going out on a limb here to say that they better stay that way. These people have been so humble and welcoming, its initially knocked me for six and then made me feel more welcomed than I've ever felt before.
It's quite a bit of work, but the results we get and the fact that we're able to again meet these amazing people make it all worth while.

I love my cheese from the 80's and 90's, I like it best when it's sandwiched between something fast and shouty.

Travel agent, hair dresser, almost media savvy and now a co-owner of a website and interviewer of band types and I'm English Tourism Council Welcome Host certified - random I know. But all true..
