A Quote by Amanda Donohoe
I have always been a huge fan of reggae music. I remember going to see Bob Marley And The Wailers at the Hammersmith Odeon when I was 13. I went with my big sister, Cordelia, and it remains the most wonderful concert I've ever been to.

There's still plenty of quirky stuff around. No one expects to make much money here, so it definitely does encourage an underground sense.
