Making My Way in the Universe

About Me

Having the time of my life! I love great music and seeing great live performances of any kind. I've been playing in local rock cover bands for the last 10 years on and off. Of course, I never made enough money doing it to quit my day job. I would just be happy knowing I created at least one great performance in my life.

My Interests

Live music, Beach-going, cooking out, Golf (although it has been a long time), hiking and anything silly (as long as it's legal and no one gets hurt)

I'd like to meet:

I like just about anyone that knows how to have a good time. It is always great to meet people that enjoy the same things I do. Of course, it is great to meet people who will to expose me to new and different things.

Music:

My favorite "old" bands are Steely Dan, Boston, Styx, Genesis, U2 and Squeeze. As for newer stuff, I dig Audioslave, Velvet Revolver and The Foo Fighters. But, my all time favorites are Paul Weller, Peter Gabriel, Rachmaninoff and my good friend, David Patillo.

Movies:

Everything from Star Wars to Felini (particularly 8 1/2). I definitely have to include Bull Durham. It was probably the best "guy" flick of all time - even though it turned into a "chick" flick at the end.

Television:

Discovery Channel, PBS, History Channel, A/E, Lost and House. I also find myself watching American Chopper, Trick My Truck, and Overhaulin from time to time.

Books:

I love old Stephen King (especially The Stand). I also enjoyed Conversations with God, a very thought-provoking and inspirational book.

Heroes:
