About Me

Let's set this city on fire.

jamesthesource
I'm on AIM all day at work. Hit me up!

My Interests

listening to obscure jazz and unsigned bands no one gives a shit about ... attempting to master the art of the double bass ... writing self-indulgent poetry no one will read ... riding bikes, mass transit, and otherwise not owning a car ... getting drunk ... booking shows for ungrateful bands ... doing too much at once and giving myself stress-induced ulcers ... watching independent films and acting pretentious ... pretending to be a vegetarian while eating meat every chance i get and thinking up rationalizations for this ... what else?...

I'd like to meet:



Music:

too much.

Movies:

The Big Lebowski

Television:

ESPN

Books:

currently:

My all time favorite books are Norwegian Wood by Murakami Haruki, The Subterraneans by Jack Kerouac, and Post Office by Charles Bukowski

Heroes:

"Cause what's a hero anyways..."
