Why Westy?
Ended up having a bit of a Dave Gorman moment here…. This first happened around 10-11 years ago when I went searching for the domain craigwestwood.com, for my freelance design business, only to find it had already gone…. It already belongs to a guitarist in Australia (and a good one, too…!), so I just had to settle for .co.uk in the end.
So – how then do you set up as Craig Westwood Music UK? Well, if you want to avoid any confusion, not a chance. So I decided to revert to my nickname, hence ‘Westy’.
I also discovered in the middle of this process that there is a bass player in the Midlands called Craig Westwood (another fine musician…!) … I thought at one point it might be a good idea to start a band…
