About Me

STOMPROCKET SOLO STUFF..I was once a little green ball of clay...OK, about me? Well, I sing and play guitar with the band Stomprocket (hence the giant logo above this) and play guitar in the band Carried By Six. Music is my main passion in life...well, art in general..(writing, drawing, music, etc.). School---rebellious troublemaker in high school, 4.0 in college (I guess it helps when you're not at war with the teachers). Majored in computer graphics after trying acting and biochemistry (and actually found a job related to my major when I graduated!) I like to stay in shape (although I suck at sports), try to stay positive (reserve the misery for the music) and live for today. I can look at life a lot differently after being told I was going to die (which was a misdiagnosis of melanoma, but that's another story...). Oh, and I say "yep" a lot and I'm always hungry. Speaking of which, I think I'll go eat...

Music:

STOMPROCKETSOLO STUFFCarried By SixI like to listen to and play all styles of music, depending on my mood. I think since we experience a wide range of emotions than why not enjoy a wide range of music. I grew up on punk (Minor Threat, LA’s Wasted Youth, Black Flag), then got into metal (Slayer, SOD, Queensryche, Sanctuary) and finally graduated to just plain ‘ole music. Current list of some bands I listen to: Static-X, Misfits, Depeche Mode, Finch, Face to Face, Snot, No Use For A Name, Stone Sour, Radio-head, David Bowie, Portishead, Tool, NIN, Alice In Chains, Pantera, Spineshank, Otep, Black Flag, White Zombie, Cyclone Temple, Jimi Hendrix, the Ataris, Pink Floyd, 7 Seconds, the Cure, Bad Brains, Sevendust, Elvis, Parliament, Bucket-head, Queens of the Stone Age this list could keep going.. I guess I like a little bit of everything if it’s done well……..

Movies:

Fight Club, Spinal Tap, The Russians Are Coming, Contact, Wave Twisters, The Wall, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Most Valuable Primate, Beavis and Butthead Do America, Pee Wee Herman’s Big Adventure, the 5000 fingers of Dr. T, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Evil Dead, Repo Man, Alien, Suburbia, The Matrix, Eternal Sunshine, Vanilla Sky, The Butterfly Effect

5 years

Well, it was 5 years ago today that a surgeon told me I had a 5-10% chance of living 5 years. I guess he had misinterpreted staging of melanoma with classification of thickness. Turns out the whole th...

Blood and mace

Pretty cool show tonight except for the fact that they filled the place with mace right before we went on. I guess broken noses and flying chairs will do that. 21 bands, 12 hours what a long day... no...
