What a lovely day for an exorcism

About Me

...All I want is a decent amp that won't sound different from day to day (Check...), the perfect cocktail that's not too strong or too weak (Check - found a nice Pinot that's killer), a cigarette that won't end up killing me (I'm quitting this year), to be in a band that eventually makes money (Check - thanks Charlie & No Thanks) and a woman who doesn't feel the need to change me (Still looking...). Is that too fucking much to ask for ? I'm the perfect combination of arrogance and insecurity...

My Interests

A good nights sleep, Sleeping in, Sleeping over, Over sleeping, My ever changing guitar collection, Horror and Sci Fi Movies, Poker, Backgammon, Pinot Noir, Bordeaux, Vodka, Boddington's Ale, Mexican Food, Mexican Art, Mexican Women, Getting even and holding a grudge forever... Did I mention Italian girls and chicks who play bass yet ? Brunettes, Brunettes, Brunettes...
