Peace Love Music

About Me

My life right now is mostly about hearing music. Played live. At the start of 2007 I decided to keep a log of every live music performance I attended. That log is listed to the left under interests/music. It gets updated fairly regularly.My preference for hearing a band is in a saloon or outdoors when it's warm and I can dance with my shoes off.I don't do arena concerts.

My Interests

Live music, music festivals, dancing, friends, reading, climbing waterfalls (over 50 climbed in 3 countries and 4 states), the beach, Honduras, peacemaking, hiking, Civil War history, repairing houses, primative art, volunteer work projects and trips, mission trips, lending a helping hand, singing from the top of ladders and rooftops, Georgia Tech, Pittsburgh Steelers

I'd like to meet:

Everyone
