What can I say… I’m Garth. I’m just Garth.
For the record: I am not into country music like Garth Brooks, and while it may be fate or irony (or a little of both) that I do have a roommate named Wayne, I don’t have a spiked hairdo or thick black-rimmed glasses like the character Garth Algar in Wayne's World.
Both of the Garth’s that are embedded into the brains of the people by the Pop Culture Gods are not in any way like me. I’m more like Mike Myers’ Wayne character than Dana Carvey's Garth, and I downright loathe country music. (I have respect for the classic guys and what they did, and I like most of Johnny Cash’s work, but overall I’m just not into the country thing. In fact, just listening to much of what people consider country these days, for even the briefest of moments, makes me physically ill).
Now that the introduction is out of the way, I’m not on MySpace to post picture comments (unless the pictures are funny) or to fill out surveys on what my favorite sound to eat breakfast to might be. I’m on here mostly because of my musical side (if it actually qualifies as music) NonEntity , and to keep in touch with friends who’ve moved on with their lives much more than I have.
I am a huge movie geek, I love music (except, of course, the aforementioned genre), and most anything dealing with “The Arts†is cool with me. I’ve been drawing since I can remember and I used to do video shorts in High School that earned me, and shooting partner Dennis, a few awards and a few laughs (the kind where they’re laughing with you, not at you).
One day I hope to be a filmmaker or writer of screenplays. Anyone out there with some money to throw around might like to know I have loads of really good, original movie ideas in just about every genre.
Anyway. Welcome to my MySpace page, yada yada yada. Feel free to message me with random shit about random shit. As I said, I’m big into movies, so anyone who wants to talk movies drop me a line. I’m known to talk ears off (burning the cartilage from the back until they slide down the face) about movies. Or music, depending on the genre, I can kill you with the crap I store in my head about music, too. Politics and religion and conspiracies and what-the-fuck-ever... I have grand, and probably ill-informed, views on every topic and I’ll argue my points to the death. So bring it on, webpage-stumbler.
