Sobre mim

Please use a PM to contact me about moderation issues, problems left in my shoutbox aren't likely to be dealt with quickly. If there are issues with an event/venue/image then you should use the 'flag for review'/'flag as abuse' options on the page, rather than contacting a moderator directly. To request capitalisation changes on artists/albums/tracks, please use this thread, requests to my inbox/shoutbox will probably be ignored.

Now that's over with, some stuff about Chris rather than DFA1979:



Don't let the orange badge and 'moderator' sign scare you, I'm actually quite nice - I don't bite (unless you're made of pizza). Don't be a moron and we'll get on fine. But I won't accept random friend requests. If I don't know anything about you, I'm not going to accept you as a friend, why would I? Talk to me a bit first.

I study Physics at the University of Liverpool, currently in my third year of a four year MPhys course. I may or may not go on to do a PhD afterwards, I've not really made any decision on that yet. I love languages. I'm currently monolingual, but learning to speak German - slowly learning, but learning. It's particularly the way that languages develop, and the relationships between them, which interests me more than being able to speak a bunch of them, though.

I don't really have a favourite band. There are a far too many good ones to choose from. Nor do I have a favourite song, for the same reason. It's just impossible to pick. I like recommendations, look into my library for clues as to what I might like. Tell me to check out things that are a bit different to what I already listen to, I try to keep an open mind. My top artists may fall in a roughly similar spectrum, but if you look further into my collection there's also metal, experimental, techno, and more. Language doesn't matter, I mostly listen to stuff in English but my CD collection already includes stuff in Icelandic, Norwegian, Japanese, Swedish, French, and possibly one or two more. So be bold, the worst that can happen is that I might not like it - that's not going to make me hunt you down with a shotgun, I'll just think "oh. OK, I'll listen to something else instead".

I quite like photography (not that I'm especially good at it). As well as (obviously) gigs, I tend to take a lot of photos of buildings, particularly abandoned/delapidated warehouses and stuff. The type that's been untouched for ages, has walls missing, and has plants growing out of the windows. There's something about the mix of (long gone) industry and nature that I find fascinating. There's some on my flickr account, but most of the non-concert stuff still needs to be made prettier with Photoshop. (If you want to add me as a contact on flickr you're welcome to do so, but it'd be appreciated if you drop me a message to let me know why.)

For those who thought "tl;dr": quit complaining, nobody's asking you to read any of this anyway.

I miss Marvin the sad robot
