inside, outside, music, recording, engineering, movies, pictures, going out to eat three times a week, doing spot on impressions of people I know, chapstick, bumble and bumble, whole foods, being off, shows, friends, guitars, pedals, gadgets, pianos, tambourines, really old t-shirts that have a perfect fit around the neck and arms, dogs, cats, cool neighbors, city skylines, (philly, nyc, boston, la, london, reprazent!) driving cross country, making crazy faces while people are trying to get a straight answer from me, learning elliott smith songs that no one else can play, the sun dried feeling after six hours at the beach, playing a show every night, sweet cheeba, doing dance moves to top 40 songs in the supermarket, quiznos, family dinners, white wine, learning spanish, cooking, holidays, barbeques, riding bikes, good pizza, swings, new family, a new set of strings, driving with a good album, sleeping in.
First, check out "alphatide" in your myspace. it's my brilliant debut. Then you may proceed to read my list of unamibiguous influences. Elliott Smith, Pixies, a bunch of British bands, and yes, I like a bit of Oasis. The Beatles, My Bloody Valentine, Stones, Kinks, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Bowie, T Rex, The Beach Boys, and the god damn Beatles. The Strokes, Radiohead, The Shins, Aimee Mann, blur, Dr. Dog, The Everyday Visuals, Jon Brion, Ryan Adams, Neil Young, Ambulance LTD, and about thirty-three thousand others. As of late, PB&J, Cat Power, Jenny Lewis.
all the wonderful childhood gems such a back to the future, ghostbusters, mr. destiny, caddyshack, and indiana jones. I like all the brilliant arsty shite everyone else likes so i choose not to mention it.
is boring but nice. Oh, I fancy a bit of LOST.
Kurt Vonnegut ones mostly do the trick.
