About Me

i like music. a lot. that pretty much sums it up. I can talk about music all day long and never tire of it. In a perfect world I'd have headphones actually built into my head so I could have a soundtrack to my life non-stop. I fall asleep with headphones on pretty often and whenever there's music playing anywhere, I'm probably listening to it rather than whomever is talking to me or whatever else is going on. At times it makes my heart flutter. I go through completely obsessive periods where I'll be reading, listening to, and watching anything and everything on some peticular artist. It's been Buckley, Adams, Bird, Mingus, and most recently Beatles.

Since I don't have any of my tunes up right now, listen to these instead...

"And did you know that everything you touch is blessed and all the richer
For your love a better being
And if I display just a fraction of the soul you showed in this world
Then I know I'll see you again"

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 4/19/2005
Band Members: still haven't found that band yet, so yeah, it's um... me.
Influences: music, either playing or listening to, nature; or anything that brings me closer to it, bikes, photography, skateboards, snowboards, sunny days, swimming, traveling, reading, sweethearts, movies, meeting real people, having a few drinks, driving long distances, misunderstood women that are underappreciated and beautiful, that wont betray my trust, williamsburg, staring at stars, interesting conversations, people that choose the direction they want their life to go and stick with it as opposed to being lead, mind expansion, dreamers, artists, stargazers, clear night skies, monkeys, dancing, concerts, and, as always, good times with friends doing any of the above.

Sounds Like: a kid singing his little ass off.... somewhere.
Record Label: not so much.
Type of Label: None

So I was looking around Stereogum today after learning that they just did a "tribute" of sorts to R.E.M's Automatic for the People, called DriveXV. Which, yes, means that album is now 15 years old. HO...

a picture postcard
