Music, film, theatre, television, photography, Texana, travel, dark roasted coffee, brunettes.
I'd like to meet:
Old friends and new ones, especially fellow actors, musicians and other creative types.
Music:
I respond in one way or another to such a wide variety of music, and I think of it in such broad terms, that I find it hard to come up with a short list of favorites. That said, The Beatles would, without a doubt, occupy the place of honor, followed closely by XTC and Robyn Hitchcock. And I do have my preferences, though it is kind of an odd assortment....
