from what I remember:

- mexican wrestler
- second baseman, LA Dodgers

It was more about doing things as an adult rather than being something.
I guess I didn't understand the concept of a profession. I still don't get that.

At first a cartoonist then I heard my first Beatles recording and wanted to be George Martin.

After that it was a toss between Rick Rubin and Steve Albini :lol:

An archeologist or an astronaut. But I didn't like school or the military. So I became a bum instead.

I remember really wanting to be a cement truck driver. I guess it sort of still is a pipe dream of mine.

A professional football player.

I was heading in the right direction (played for Hearts at U16 level) then had a bad injury. During this layoff I started taking more drugs than I should have and never played for Hearts again.

It was around this time I started taking music seriously.
