A Photograph

This photo is one of my favourites from when I was younger. It was taken by my ex-girlfriend. I must have been about 19 years old and I was playing with my band The Final Programme in a local discoteque. The rest of the band were punks but I was a David Bowie fan so my image was modelled on him. It's quite odd looking at the photograph now because I've changed so much over the years. For example, I wore my hair long until I was about 24 and then cut it short and that's the way it's always been since then. I also like the way that fashion is so retro. I used to wear make-up and wear outlandish clothes that were totally original in those days. However, nowadays it's quite normal for people to wear make up, dye their hair and dress in that way. It was great fun being part of that scene and I had lots of fun. There was lots of great music being made and that's what this photograph reminds me of: music and good times.
