Blogging-It and Online Discussion . top of page

I've not actually took to the blog thing full-time, but for those inclined to read the occasional Poyzer rant, or indeed celebration of something worthwhile, the dancing words courtesy of yours truly can now be found here.

In addition, I cna also be found chatting and discussing various topics alongside many other Acoustica artistes and live music lovers via the forum at www.stereograffiti.com; and in a more advisory capacity for the Cheshire Youth music website at www.amplifier.org.uk.

Maybe c ya there, if not at a gig or two!
