About Me

And so, the ever changing page of Crap-O-Phonic changes again. Decided to make it a little more fun with the addition of music videos by some of my influences. It appears that people are shutting off my music to listen to the videos, though. That's okay. Hope you enjoy whatever you're listening to here.

The Beatles--"Strawberry Fields Forever"
The Smiths--"The Boy With The Thorn In His Side"
Cocteau Twins--"Heaven Or Las Vegas"
Ride--"Vapour Trail"
