Introduction	I go to quite a few concerts each year and always take photos. So I figured I'd start sharing them. And regaling the world (i.e. whichever friends I've forced this link on) with whatever stories I remember about them. P.S. Alfacinha means 'little lettuce' in Portuguese and is also the nickname for someone from Lisbon, i.e. me.
Interests	Music, listening and watching as much of it as I can. Sadly not performing it as I'm pretty much hopeless when it comes to playing any instruments...although I'm a mean table drummer.
Favorite Movies	I'll stick to just music related ones or those with amazing soundtracks here: Spinal Tap, Moulin Rouge, Trainspotting, A Hard Day's Night, 24 Hour Party People, Zero Effect, A Life Less Ordinary, Amelie, Triplets of Belleville, In the Name of the Father, Magnolia, Baz Luhrmann's Romeo and Juliet, Velvet Goldmine, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Million Dollar Hotel, etc.
Favorite Music	This changes often, but perennial top of the charts are U2, Radiohead, Belle and Sebastian, White Stripes, Clash, Elvis Costello, Bowie, PJ Harvey, Manu Chao, Gogol Bordello, and a whole lot more.
Favorite Books	Again, have to go with music related ones: High Fidelity - Nick Hornby, must read for any self-respecting music lover/obsessive; Belle and Sebastian: Just a Modern Rock Story; and U2: At the End of the World, an absolute must for u2 fans, often called the bible of all that is u2.
