Keith Flint |
Keith (the mad man) is also from Braintree, Essex. Keith was a big
fan of raving in it's inception around 1988 and was a regular on the
M25 motorway scene. This is where he was with friends like Leeroy.
Together they got to know Liam through mutual friends who were also
ravers. Then they decided to form a dance act. Keith is the band's
most popular member. Probably because he makes himself well known
especially by the way he looks.
His latest look is having his hair spiked up in the middle, having
it blond, or maybe some kind of color. I'm not sure anymore, it changes
to often :) He has about a hundred nose rings, earings and a tounge
ring. He has tattoos including one across his stomach that says "Inflicted".
Keith is known to be every parents nightmare, and also has a lot of
complaints about how scary he is. One particular parent, in a letter
to the BBC complaining about that video, have called him "a man in
need of urgent medical attention". Keith is the band's dancer. He
also likes to stick his tounge out a lot too. Lately he has been recording
his screaming vocals on the music. He said "I've been screaming with
my body for the past six years, so now it's time to scream with my
mouth". (although he can’t sing, his voice has a superb tone).
Keith is also known to be the loudest, but most nicest member of the
group. He loves danger – already when he was little, he used to play
with plugs – seeing how far he’d dare to push the plug in and touch
the terminal on the other end (he never got a shock)... And he announced
in the summer of 1998 that he’d be competing in the superbike race
called the Clubman’s Race, racing at speeds up to 160mph.
What describes his personality the best are the lyrics of Firestarter,
which he wrote about himself. Actually the first time he liked something
he had done was when he first did Firestarter. "For the first time
I’d liked something I’d done. Not just musically, but personally.
I got home and I put it on and I thought: ‘I fuckin’like this,’ and
I felt this massive wave of emotion...”
Some of his goals in life are to live out his ultimate sex experience
(with a lot of chicks), have every part of his body pierced, and try
all the hair colours. |
