Attila the Stockbroker is a punk rock performance poet and songwriter, he did the first of approximately 2,700 gigs in 24 countries (to date!) on Sept 8 1980, and he's very proud to have earned his living doing what he loves for 30 years this September! As for what he's going to do here, well, first of all he's put up some songs/poems, a few for free download. He posts many of the gigs as well, but for a full list you're better off going to his myspace page or website. He's on here as a listener too - attilastockbrok - some good recommendations there!
