Set it Off: Gibbs of the 1060´s

Name: Gibbs

Aka: The milk gibbon

Website: www.facebook.com/the1060s

Where are you from? Jolly old England

Who do you work for? The gods of music and mirth, and occasionally the devil

What are your Current Project(s)? Happy indie rock electro dancey
kinda band called ‘the 1060s’ (formally mosesmurphee)

Who would you love to work with? lennon circa 1963, stevie wonder
circa 1960s, syd barrett before he went really mad, ian curtis before
he killed himself, peter gabriel, ian brown, jay kay, Lee Mavers, mark
ronson, Ian Parton.

If you had to live in one city the rest of your life, where would it
be?
I’m torn between here, Rio and/or maybe Bergen in Norway, its
really nice there.   I don’t know about the winter though, I suppose it
would be shite then.  I’d like to retire in Norway though.

What’s on your iPod right now? On the run: The Meters, the Cure,
Vampire Weekend, stevie wonder, the stone Roses, The go! Team, the
smiths, outkast, LCD soundsystem, the La’s, Joy division

What’s your Favorite BA food? I’m into the peruvian/chinese spots,
like Inca in congreso for its large manly portions, and I love man
chau on peru y indepencia, the staff are great and its cheap as chips,
me and the lads head down there on a regular basis for a hearty feed,
the ol waitress is a darlin bless her

What’s your Favorite BA hangout? I like gibralter, red door, and
krakow in san telmo, Salón Pueyrredón pretty good for music on
weekends, its more like the indie clubs we have back home.

What are your Pet Peeves? I dislike red tape. I also dislike it when
restaurants here that serve supposedly spicy food that turn out to be
quite bland. I miss currys in UK!!!! And the tex mex food in the
states too, thats niiiiice that stuff

Shout outs? Hal, Nicky, Jeff our brothers back in the states,
our main man big Hacho and the good folk the Clan, Seadogg, The Rev,
the gents from pubcrawl, emmrick, mikey and kuzma, bazza, reggy,
danny rosenberg, goss, big danger dange, davo maler and roddy,
and my band mates ere: Eric the grey, Julian the dance otter, and the great bison himself austin.
