MyGen
Profile GeneratorYo. I'm Tobby. My real name is Octavio. Strange, I know. I play music. I mean, a lot of music. This is what I do.
"GRYNCH"
drums
I joined Grynch as their third drummer a little after I moved to Eugene in 2004. It's trippy rock/metal. We played with Vanilla Ice. For the love of god, don't ask me why. I do the audio samples and CD design for both albums as well.
"WE HAVE GUNS"
lead guitar
I've been writing my own music for quite a while, and I ended up recording a bunch of my ideas, playing all the instruments. After showing all the music to some friends from other bands, we decided to form We Have Guns. I write 75% of the music. We are fast, brutal, and loud.
"THE EDGE"
co-host
As part of my job, I am the co-host to the metal radio show, The Edge on 101.5 KFLY with Standard Ass Carl as the host. I'm basically the show guy who listens to all the local music I can and knows when most local shows and national metal shows are coming to Oregon. Sometimes I can say something funny. If that ever happens, record it. Seriously. I need proof it can happen.
"PARANOS"
drums
One of my most proudest accomplishments, Paranos was a band that I had started with some friends in high school. We moved to Eugene together and attempted to take over the scene. I thought our music was amazing, and I am still sad this band broke up. One day, I hope we can do something again.
"MORTHEO"
drums
My very first real band. It was formed my sophomore year of high school and we were very grunge. Back when Nirvana and Silverchair and Local H were our gods. It wasn't anything amazing, but I was proud of it.
I also pursue my love of music in other forms. I substitute drums, guitars and bass for bands looking for members for both live and studio sets, and I produce a bunch of local music, and help in the production of albums in many different styles. I'm enrolled full-time at L.C.C., which is probably a mistake. Other than that, I'm a pretty easy going guy. Not a big fan of parties unless I know most everybody, I'm a shy guy around pretty girls I don't know and right before I go onstage. And I believe in god, just not religion.
