The first idea was 'Second Image' that was the name of a hair and beauty salon in the countryside. But when I found the name had already been taken, I changed my name to 'Future Image'.

Only very occasionly; about once or twice a year. I'd like the opportunity to gig more.

I think that mp3s are pushing out the compact disc which is a shame. Saving your money up to get a 'real' CD has got a certain excitement to it.

I'd rather get signed to an indie label.
