I..ve performed my music solo on several occasions but I wasn..t really satisfied with this, so I..m looking for some freaks who might be interested in joining me and my music. But I would be also delighted if there is someone who simply likes to talk about music and presents me some bands worth discovering.Kyuss - One inch man
