About Me

what about me should i tell you? I'm a musician who lives in Athens, GA. I play with a band named Casper and the Cookies. We've just finished our latest album. "Moder Silence" and we're looking forward to releasing it in the spring of 09. I can't wait to go back out on the road!living in athens means enjoying the amazing music scene here! there are so many great local bands that i love i can't even begin to list them. through touring we've also made some really great "out of town" band freinds like apples in stereo and poison control center and elekibass and ever thus the deadbeats! (if you haven't, you should check out these bands!)I like to read books and watch movies. (When I'm in town i work at a video rental place.) I'm not much into sports with the major exception being Boxing and MMA. Socially/Politically I'm a die-hard liberal. I blog on myspace a lot; it's where i like to keep all my tour journals. I like to joke and hangout. i really like messages and comments so please send some my way.- I'm out of things to tell you now.ohh yeah, i'm a horrible speller/typist but i've come to accept it.
