This is so cool - everyone is really diverse. I love it!!
Suppose I had better bore you with what we do.............
I started out as a music photographer and set designer for nightclubs. Moved to Miami, where I spent 7 sun drenched (and maybe alcohol drenched!!) years setting up & clubs, club visual design, managing DJs and events and DJing my own events!
Came back to the UK to manage Goldie and his Metalheadz record labels, toured with Goldie for 3 years then moved to Ibiza to take the post of marketing director at Amnesia for a year.
Life is a little calmer now! Still manage Goldie, still working on an album I started 3 years ago, still involved in the DnB scene, but I also have a property development business with my Father ( never work with family or friends?
) Problem is there is no money in the music industry anymore and even less in property!
Melissa is head of marketing at Box TV, a channel 4 thingy. She looks after 4 Music, Magic, Kerrang and all the other fun music TV channels. She has to travel to London each day still, so its a bit of a shlep - but she is coping well (and has learnt to sleep on trains like a pro!)
So, on top of all this we are trying to start a smallholding. We have a 250m2 plot for veg and the polytunnel (if we every get it built!!) and plan to fetch chickens for the back garden in the next few weeks. We also have a cat (so livestock on a small scale!) I go shooting most weekends for Rabbits and anything else (within reason) thats edible and Melissa bakes amazing cakes!!
Plan is to move out a little closer to Nottingham, maybe in the Vale of Belvoir (pronounced beever apparently!) get 3 acres or so and take it from there. Thats assuming we ever get the house finished to sell!
Now, assuming I haven't bored you all into a small coma............................
