Howdy! My name is Joey
Lindstrom and I hail from Calgary,
Alberta, Canada (home of the world-famous Calgary
Stampede, the less-famous 1989 Stanley Cup Champion
Calgary Flames,
and the really, really famous 1988 Winter Olympic Games).
I'm 30+ years old (birthday is Feb 13 1967), about 180cm in height, 80kg in weight, eyes of hazel and brown hair of excessive curliness. I'm told I resemble a "nerd" in some respects... if you've got graphics turned on, you be the judge (look up, WAAAAAAAY up!)
Outside of Numan and computers, my interests include: radio production, skiing, ice hockey, television (Frasier, Babylon 5, Simpsons), conservative politics, and finding the perfect woman before I die of old age.
By night I'm a taxi driver for Associated Cabs here in Calgary. By day I'm a confirmed Gary Numan fan, aka "Numanoid".
I'm also an aspiring radio producer - I graduated with honours from the Cinema,
Television, Stage and Radio Arts program at the Southern Alberta Institute
of Technology (in 1995), majoring in radio production.
My audition tape, and other SAIT-related audio,
is available for download.
I live with my room-mate Garry, who refuses
to allow me to identify him here other than by first name (and will deny
any knowledge of my existence if questioned). We have two
cats. "Hobbes"
and "Ruddigger"
- two points if you can correctly identify the source of the
latter name.
In March/April 1996, I made the trip to
the UK to visit relatives and see Gary Numan perform live in concert
during the Premier Tour (final six
shows). I saw a few of you there! I was easily recognizable
as I often wore a Calgary Flames replica player jersey (pictured at
right and below) with the number "96" on the back and shoulders and with the name
"Gary Numan" on the back. Believe it... or not.
Squeezing out the extra time to create this shrine to the music of Gary Numan isn't easy, but it's a labour of love. My plans for this place are quite ambitious - it will take me some time to get everything together. Please do enjoy what is here for now, and check back regularly as I add more features. And hey: if you've got some great ideas that'll make this page better, I'd really like to hear from you!
Gary is rumoured to be supporting the comprehensive Ugly Ice Hockey Jersey Importation Ban Act of 1998, currently before the House of Commons
