About Me

Cheers from the sunny city of L.A. in cool California. I motorcycled 3,200 miles across the USA, from the East Coast to the West Coast, at the age of twenty with not much more than hopes of living my rock-n-roll fantasy ... and have never regretted it. I still feel as enthusiastic as the day I rolled into town 25+ years ago. I owned and operated a well known bar & grill in L.A. that featured live modern rock music. I sold it in '06 to profit from a nice gain in value and to take a break and regroup while I plan my next business venture. In addition to being an entrepreneur I'm a college-educated, salaried professional. Some of the old rebel still lives in me but I've always had my head on pretty straight. I've survived my share of adventures and got it out of my system. I've been into a balanced and healthy lifestyle for many years. I've traveled and have seen much of the USA and Europe and a bit of Asia. I was born on the edge of the North Sea in Europe and my blood flows with Nordic saltwater. But my battle axe is my guitar as music is my passion and frustration. Explore my profile page and blog when you have time. There's stuff to read, listen to, look at and watch.

My Interests

modern music, guitars, fitness, dancing, business, Internet, writing, reading, thinking, movies, sports, martial arts, hiking, nature, learning, debating, politics, investing, economics, travel, ultralight aircraft, dune buggy off roading

I'd like to meet:

Smart, cool, and attractive folks in Los Angeles and across the world who share my tastes, vision and angst. Emotionally stable people who share my somewhat offbeat and sometimes cynical brand of humor are most likely to laugh with me. As for politics, I think that any educated person over the age of 35 who's made something of oneself should be able to clearly see the folly and failure of liberalism. Feel free to hit me up with a Friend Request, particularly if you're a like-minded SoCal gal. I'm pretty busy so it's unlikely I'll contact you often if you're just a MySpace friend and we've never met, but I always reciprocate with replies and comments.



NOTE TO BANDS/MUSICIANS IN HOLLYWOOD AND AREAS JUST NORTH AND EAST: I've finally got a little more time to join another band. Obviously I'd fit in best with members around my own age, but you must think young like me with modern tastes and a compelling urge to create cool new music. I don't care what you look like or how you dress -- as long as the music kicks ass. I play solid rhythm guitar and can contribute to vocals. I played bass guitar with a band called The Product in the 80's. Hear my latest work here at MySpace under my home recording project as DJ Produkt. My voice is in the range of a baritone. See my profile for my music tastes which range from electronica to rock, particularly Industrial, Garage and Desert Stoner rock. I also enjoy playing the newer, glassy-clean sound using an American Deluxe Fender Telecaster and a Vox AC30 amplifier with treble boost. With that setup I get a sound like The Strokes, The Killers, and Arctic Monkeys, and I enjoy playing with that kind of energy. I own pro quality guitar gear. Message me here at MySpace if you'd like me to audition.
