I am here for Networking

About Me

Well, I play bass and sing, and I can even throw down on some guitar and keyboards. I've been playing in bands for 14 years now. Some of my past bands are The Orange Julians, Buttonpusher, Cracked Beyond Recognition/Juniper Breed, and Non-Existent Fish, among other projects of all sorts of music. Most of these bands can be found on myspace under the band name or under Powerline Records, which is the earliest stuff I did...between the ages of 14 and 20, I guess. I'll probably be working on some solo stuff in the future, unless I get myself a good band going. I love to travel with no destination in mind...the couple of times I've had the means to. I love hanging with my best friends as much as possible. I have Crohn's disease, so that's fun. I LOVE going to awesome rock shows, especially when I'm with awesome people.

My Interests

music, music, and uhm....music...I just need a way to record (cheaply...aka, for free..hahahahahaha) and a person or two to write with. My dogs are the most awesome creatures in the world. My cats rock, too. I have pics of them up now. Right now i'm trying to get my house in order, along with the rest of my life.

I'd like to meet:

Well, I have already met three of my bands...The B-52's, Sunny Day, and Superchunk. I would love to meet Christopher Walken, Robert Smith, Jesco White (The Dancin' Outlaw), and a lot of others. I'm always afraid that I'll meet my favorite actors or musicians and they'll be jerks and then my taste for their films or music would be ruined.

Music:

Some favorite bands are....SUPERCHUNK, The B-52's, The Cure, Pixies, Jesus Lizard, Portastatic, Fugazi, Nick Cave, PJ Harvey, the Clash, Sebadoh, Ramones, Poison, Dinosaur JR., Yo La Tengo, Pylon, REM, Tori Amos, Bad Religion, LAEther Strip, Jejune, the Cramps, Radiohead, the Psychedelic Furs, Pretenders, Fear, Misfits, Tones on Tail, Violent Femmes, Cinderella, They Might Be Giants, Concrete Blonde, Drive-By-Truckers, Depeche Mode, Circle Jerks, the Go-Go's, "Weird Al" Yankovic, P.I.L., the Sundays, Hum, Nina(Kate Pierson's old side project...HUGE in Japan), Peter Murphy, X, Crass, Jawbreaker, Sunny Day Real Estate, Killers, London Suede, Jimmy Eat World, Smiths, Blondie, Interpol, Def Leppard, Misfits, Crass, Bathtub Gin, Dead Milkmen, Talking Heads, Cindy Lauper, Cogburns, Motorhead, Weezer, Built to Spill, Spoon, older Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, motown (especially the Temptations), a lot of 80's new wave and punk....etc. My taste is extremely varied.

Movies:

Big Fish, any John Hughes films, High Fidelity (and most any other John and/or Joan Cusak movie for that matter...except 1408), Money Pit, Lord Of The Rings trilogy, Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, Legend, Never-Ending Story, Goonies, Super Troopers, ALL Kevin Smith movies, Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Mel Brooks films, etc....

Television:

Family Guy, Futurama, adult swim shows (especially squidbillies, Venture Bros.) Spike TV with TONS of MXC, police videos, and max X, any shows about the paranormal, all of the horrible elimidate-type shows. It re-affirms the fact that I COULD be a worse person.

Books:

A lot of fantasy, C.S. Lewis, Tolkien, books about the supernatural and paranormal experiences, Documentary books on musicians and the music scene, past and present....

Heroes:

My Mom, my sister (Joanna), and Cindy Wilson (of the B-52's)
