My name is Adam Welch, twenty something, 6'2", I live between Leeds and Bradford in Great Britain in a town called Otley, It's just down the road from Ilkley (no bar tat jokes please)!! I have been editing this web page since the summer of 1996. I an interested in many things in life but Terrorvision is the main one! I have been into the band since the "How To Make Friends and Influence People" era. I have every track the band have ever laid down many of which are very rare. I am an avid collector of Terrorvision merchandise and have spent rather a lot of money on it! I have met Shutty four times. Once at the Leeds Sound City gig (8th April 1996) where he was just walking around before the gig. The Harrogate Arms gig (22nd August 1997), where Leigh gave me a bottle of Beck's!! Bradford (16th of April 1999) where again he was walking around before the gig, and Bradford Uni (14 of Oct 99) when I watched the sound check!! However at the leafeater gig (19th of May 1999) I met Mark who gave me a nice autograph! He broke me pen though :o( Most recently at the Mela Festival in Bradford (4th July 1999) I met mark again who came up to me and said "I know you don't I?" To which I replied "Yes you do!" So that was great! He told me how he felt out of place though! I think we were the only white people there! But hey, Great day! On the 14th of October the best so far of my Terrorvision experiences took place. I arranged to go to the Sound check and interview the band. This is where I met Tony and Leigh for the first time. I spent over an hour with them and the results can be seen here!!!!! 2nd July 2000 I met Mark again! He said hello before the Breeze festival gig! On the 18th of January 2001 I again met the whole band at a signing of 'D'Ya Wanna Go Faster' in Virgin.
