Me
Completing All 20 in Ottawa.

My name is Kevin Jordan and I've supported the London Knights since I was 5. I grew up and lived my entire life in London and held Knights season tickets for 6 years, but for the 2005-06 season I moved to St. John's, Newfoundland to attend grad school, and in so doing, became a QMJHL/St. John's Fog Devils fan as well. I'm living in London again now and hope to someday see a game in every CHL rink, although the WHL is still a pipe dream at this point. If you want to meet me during a game please email me ahead of time at email.

In the real world, I work as a Brokerage Manager for the insurance arm of a Bay Street securities firm.

Favourite QMJHL Team: St. John's Fog Devils
Favourite NHL Teams: I've grown apart from the NHL since I was a kid, and it's hard to say now that I have a favourite team. My family is mostly Leafs fans and I grew up one, and I have a big soft spot for the Sabres since I grew up going to games at the Buffalo Aud, but I don't really have an NHL team that I'm passionate about anymore. Primarily I just cheer for former Knights.
Favourite MLB Teams: Toronto Blue Jays, and I have a soft spot for the Red Sox that has shrunk a fair bit since they turned into the Yankees II.
Favourite Soccer Team: Everton Football Club
Favourite Movies: My favourite movies are the ones from the late 1950's and early 1960's when they had a certain black and white ambience but a modern "cool", such as The Hustler, Sweet Smell of Success, etc. I also enjoy a lot of older (The Grapes of Wrath, The Third Man), foreign (La Grand Illusion, M) and modern/indie (This is Spinal Tap, 24 Hour Party People) flicks, as well as the occasional stupid comedy.
Favourite Bands: I'm primarily into the 1980's post-punk underground - American bands like Mission of Burma and the Replacements, British pop like XTC and the Housemartins, and Southern jangle-pop like the dB's or Guadalcanal Diary. In addition, I love bands from the "Canadian Rock Renaissance" of the 1990s, bands like Barenaked Ladies and Lowest of the Low. I also like some music that doesn't fit into those pigeonholes (from Talking Heads to Uncle Tupelo to Stan Rogers) but those are my main musical interests.
Favourite TV: I don't watch a lot of TV, but Britcoms like the Young Ones, Monty Python, Father Ted, Black Adder and Fawlty Towers are my favourites. I also enjoy the Simpsons (back when they didn't suck) and Family Guy.

Incidentally, I collect all sorts of junior hockey stuff, most notably pocket schedules. If you're a collector and want to make a trade, or even if you want the current year's Knights schedule in exchange for your local team's, drop me an email.
