Joseph



Meet Joseph.

I first noticed joseph in 2007, I was hanging out in the newest place to be with these two borderline sociopathic girls from college. Joseph was bar tending there. They readily concluded that his thick rimmed glasses were the only thing going for him, which is a shame for someone with 20/20 vision.

Joseph may look like the rapist goblin from the The labyrinth's deleted scenes, but underneath that sinister beard and glaring stare, lays nothing more than a urban Mother Teresa. Joseph has swiftly become one of my new favourites, with time, my new bff.
He's A Dj's but he's not a alcoholic. He's also in a band, though he doesn't play synth, he sings, though such musical talent have yet to be witnessed by my eyes or ears, but I can imagine it's something worth signing off facebook for.

I almost fell in love with him the other night, not for his +1 but because he played this song. You know when a song that you love is played in a open space and it's the first time you have heard the song in a social setting and you kind of 'gasm over it and kind of.. goosebump to death as you consider it your song, just yours and no other. well yeah, that kind of happened. It's not my favourite song but it's an creative alternative to this, this and any other song used for the sake of irony.

You know when you hear a song and you try to find it and it's impossible for it's a song impossible to sing the title doesn't relate or appear in the song and you develop a warped interpretation of the lyrics which you frustratingly type into google only to discover that they were completely wrong? I've only had two unpleasant examples. The first was this song, it took me 3 years to find, and the second song was the song that miraculously Joseph played the other night, concluding my SIX YEAR search. I have never met a DJ so relevant to my life.

Certain aspects about Joseph remain cripplingly vague. I either don't know his age or I just keep forgetting. He unintentionally promotes himself "try-b-4-u-bi-sexual" which no doubt means he once kissed a Emo hermaphrodite in 2005 but who didn't?

Fond memories include drinking cocktails in Harvey nichols. Not all Bristolian Djs drink white Ace you know.
