theatre. art in all it's forms. design. music. animals. food. the outdoors. the country. the city. roller derby. living the life of a starving city artist. ADVENTURES.
my future son:
the complexity of Mars Volta and Yes. the simplicity of The Ramones and Johnny Cash. the experimentation of Frank Zappa. a wailing solo on a flying V. the fellowship of live bluegrass. fresh light strings on a classical guitar. dobros. the way i can't sit still when I hear swing. getting lost in a jazz set. a swelling symphonic crescendo. how a harmonica sounds through a green hornet. songs that make me crank the volume, step on the gas and roll down the window- no matter what the temperature is outside.
ANNIE. hook. tim burton. anything muppets. robin hood men in tights. ace ventura. monty python. the 5th element. PIXAR. dogtown and zboys. almost famous. the lord of the rings trilogy. club paradise. and my guilty pleasure, rehem.... cool runnings.
let it explode.
Jitterbug Perfume. The DaVinci Code. Kurt Vonnegut. The Real Frank Zappa Book. Lord of the Rings. cultural folklore and history books, art and photography books, Maxim... that counts, right??
