I finally got around to setting up a My Space page. It would be nice if people could pop by and have a listen. I've never been fortunate enough to go into a studio and record my voice properly, so I consider everything I do a demo, but you certainly get the idea. If anyone wants to become my friend I'd be grateful, I'm lonely at the moment
My stuff is VERY commerical and VERY Pet Shop Boys, with a bit of Depeche Mode, OMD, trance and house built in. I make insturmental dance music too, but this is not featured on this page, I may set up an alternative site for that.
Ah teaching, tell me about it... i've tired of telling lazy, ignorant kids that want to be lawyers, journalists etc "Be what u wanna be, the future is in your hands". Alot of them are never going to get anywhere given their approach to study. Sad
Hello my name is Neil Tennant and I'm Chris Lowe and we're of the Pet Shop Boys.
Wel I'm a high school teacher and I'm certainly not complaining. I absolutely love my job. Right now I'm Bruxelles with some of my students on a 6 day study trip.
Unfortunately in the UK Teachers are not treated very well by the government. We are overworked, underpaid, over-monitored, scrutinised, never rewarded, never listened too, not appreciated...etc etc etc.......

and only have 20 days holiday a year Consider yourself lucky you don't work in the private sector and face losing your job this year and face a pay freeze
Still waiting to hear the Adam Freeland, Manhattan Clique and Axwell mixes of Integral.
as an addition to the above I didn't want to sound too harsh, the big problem with teaching is that when it comes to pay and working conditions the dedicated hard working teachers who give a shit are given the same pay and other conditions as the lazy ones - thereby reducing their motivation and the passion they have. My sister and quite a few of her friends are teachers and they love what they do but are fed up of arriving an 30 mins to an hour before school starts to do preparation, when their colleagues turn up a minute before they should and piss off when the school bell tolls. From a human resources point of view the current system is crazy
