Distinguishing Features: Has the largest collection of Rob Zombie t-Shirts in the Western world. Prone to wearing an illuminous orange upside down-cross and lots of spiky wristbands. Has red hair (this week). Also the proud owner of the most dodgy facial hair in Headcheese.

Most likely to say: "Fuckin' Metal" or "Thon's a load of ballix."
Least likely to say: "Told you I'd be there on time, Adam." or "Say, why don't we cover Linkin Park?"
Weirdest things about him: Owns far too many action figures and has a Star Wars duvet. Fiercely loyal Iron Maiden fan. Can't grow a proper beard. Very prone to baring his arse at the wrong times. Can get travel sick on a skateboard.
Element that I bring to the band: Lyrics inspired by toys, nightmares and zombies, and post rehearsal B.O. And someone to verbally abuse. And all the bloody artwork and the website...
On His Instrument: "Hell I never shut up, so I may as well put my mouth to good use - incitng hatred and cursing everything from God to Britney Spears"
On Headcheese: "Shower of bastards - greasy, monkey, beardy, drummerless twats"
Comment: 'Youse leek fockin' hippies wha'?"
Fave Mullet: Adrian Smith circa 1988 (with bleached tips!!!). Pure class. The sleeveless trench coat and bullet belt set it off wonderfully too.
