What up peoples. My name is Gavin Theory, best friend of Gavin Soens. He likes to put my name on his songs and his poems. I live in Portland currently though I was born and raised in the mini-metropolis of Kenosha, WI. I was the dawning of the age of Aquarius. I believe humans are capable of divine things yet pass these acts off on an undeserving fairy tale. I like to make songs, I'm not sure if they're any good but my friends seem to like them. I've made music since I was a youngster, first on the saxophone and then electronically. I've written poetry for almost as long. I think hip-hop can be the most honest, emotional, and progressive music ever created yet it often falls short. I hate the television. I never want to vicariously live through other people. Seems like a ridiculous way to spend the one life we have on this planet. I don't have scores of friends but I have some great ones I wouldn't give up for the world. Love to Lucas, Steve, Sinnen, and Wheeze. I conduct social experiments on public transit. Holding up notebook pages with pseudo-prophetic questions. One time this guy asked me what I meant by them, I told him nothing in particular. I have no interest in telling someone else what they should think, however, I have a huge amount of passion simply to make people think for themselves. I love people but hate the limitations we put on ourselves. I like bad jokes, typically of the pun variety, have to thank the pops for that. That's about it for now. Big up yourself. Peace to all. Easy.
