from the dark side of ...

Hi everyone
I'll take some time to introduce myself
First, I'm from Quebec City, Quebec, Canada

I'm interested in Gothic subculture since 2 years approximately, when I began listening to Gothic rock and death rock. I discovered a lot over Internet, so you could consider me as a kind of net.goth.
Firstly, I'd tell that I've first been into Heavy Metal since I'm 13, and it is still my main universe, but it slowly comes aside from a growing interest into Gothic culture, and it's people I have a lot more in common than metal heads.

I am also into guitar playing, mostly black metal at the time. I also like to draw portrait of gothic fashion models.

You will learn probably a lot more from me with time
and sorry for my poor english level, this is not my first language

have a nice day (night ? )

Hello and welcome!
I'm Diana, or Raven, whatever. Anyway, you living in Canada... I assume your first language is french? Just guessing..
And do you have your artwork posted somewere? I'd love to see it. I've drawn gothic models myself but I usually design everything about them myself. Have you heard of a site called ModelMayhem? It's a lovely place for inspiration with art like that. : )

You have terrific tastes in orchestral music.

I'm going to have to make up a new schtick now. I'll complain about getting free money from my parents or something, that's always funny.

Pehaps this is more worthy:

A plane hit a patch of severe turbulence and the passengers were holding on tight as it rocked and reeled through the night. A little old lady turned to a minister who was sitting behind her and said, "You're a man of God. Can't you do something about this?"

He replied, "Sorry, I can't. I'm in sales, not management."

Oh and welcome franco. Bon jour.

The questions are there to be answered if you don't want to write an introduction in your own way.

Welcome franco, nice music taste.

Meh there is a lot of crap on here. Maybe this would interest you, it's a list of some bands, I'm thinking you'll know all or most of them but you might as well check it out.

Allo! Comment est Québec? Vous avez bon goûtes en musique. Je suis dèsole si mon français est mauvais, mais je ne l'ai parlé pas pour longtemps. Je suis content de voir quelqu'un qui parle français ici. Bienvenue.

Oh, and everyone knows he can't be God, because God is female. Unless we're talking Cthulhu. I'm pretty sure he's male, though I doubt anyone has gotten close enough to check and lived.
