About Me


You are now marked on my profile visitor map!
..*Origins of our name:Much Ado About Nothing Act II scene iDON PEDRO: Will you have me, lady?BEATRICE: No, my lord, unless I might have another for working-days: your grace is too costly to wear every day. But, I beseech your grace, pardon me: I was born to speak all mirth and no matter.The Winter's Tale Act I scene iiPOLIXENES: If at home, sir, He’s all my excise, my mirth, my matter,Now my sworn friend and then mine enemy; My parasite, my soldier, statesman, all: He makes a July’s day short as December, And with his varying childness cures in me Thoughts that would thick my blood.(Yes, we know Shakespeare was actually referencing the Decameron...but that hasn't been made into a Kenneth Brannagh movie yet so...)

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 2/28/2005
Band Website: cafepress.com/ofmandm
Influences: Muse, Butch Walker, Smashing Pumpkins, Guns N' Roses, Head Automatica, Grateful Dead, David Bowie, Blues Traveler, Rolling Stones, TOOL, Marillion, Porcupine Tree, Jimmy Eat World, U2, Prince, Coheed & Cambria, G Love and Special Sauce, plus many, many more artists from jazz to hip-hop, to metal and all the stuff in between
Sounds Like: "The guys really enjoy being on stage as you can see their energy and passions under the lights. Their music is their soul as they performed with ease their own songs as well as a few cover songs. Cross between jazz and alternative rock, this band is one you have to see! I was delighted the entire sixty minutes of rhythm and power as I found myself jamming hard at times and slowing it down a pace with a ballad mixed in. Their own songs complete with several time changes adds to their strong abilities in their talents."--Lyn, Powermixradio.com
Type of Label: None

The best: Not to sound like a schill (*quickly pushes bag of Athfest money out of view*) but the fact that I saw 10+ bands in 24 hours for $15 is pretty damn sweet. Surprise best act (and best perfor...
