About Me

Some people call me Cheese. Some call me John. I'm a bit of both, so whatever works for ya! (You should know I onloy used Saul Goodman for the play on words)Happiest when I'm in the woods, and a bit of a boy scout when it comes to the outdoors. Gave up Professional modelmaking turned Construction management, but somehow ended up as an A/V technician. A Mechanical engineer at heart and redesign shit in my head for fun, while trying to figure out what to do with it to get me out of working for someone else. Anyways, looking forward to some hang gliding and kite boarding, so until then. Life's just details. So give a shout, or take what you will from my personal craziness.... Peace!

Music:

Where to start? Everything pretty much.. Not into Rap or pop/trend teen bop. All the classics though: Floyd, AC/DC, Clapton, Zeppelin. Especially Rush. I also love Stevie Ray Vaughn, Joe Satriani and Eric Johnson. Then I got old metal with Metallica, Megadeth, Alice cooper, Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Queensryche. Then I hooked up with the Rave crowd and got into techno, Deep House, Breakbeat, Jungle, Oakenfold, Digweed, Swedish Edgil, Acid Jazz, Propellerheads, and such. Now it's more blues and as of late, spanish classical... Have the dark side with a bit of Korn, Disturbed, System of a down, Drowning pool, Clutch, Tool,Insane Clown Possie... I've been looking for interesting pieces to listen to and found a couple that I've posted here. Any ones you might suggest based on what you see?PS. That Eric Mongrain kid is amazing!..
