About Me


I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !
THESE MACHINES KILL FASCISTS. I'm 31 years old, I live on Capitol Hill in Loverly, Green Seattle, Washington. I work as an admin assistant for a living, I'm planning on continuing in school to study graphic design and illustration and junk (as soon as I establish residency), and I play in some band. So you see, this is cool stuff that I do. I play piano, organ and keyboards, a lil guitar and tenor banjo, trombone and trumpet and I sing. I like it! I'm a gay man. That means that I'm gay. I'm into Jazz Music from the 1920's and early 30's a lot, and it gets me into a lot of trouble sometimes. But mostly, I like stuff from the general category of what you could call good pop music. I guess that means different things to different people, so it's definately not at all the case that I like all pop music. A lot of what I like is what some people, myself being one of them at times, call Indie Pop. But that's not to say that that's the breadth of the pop music I like. Sure, Chris, try to confuse us by being vague and throw up a smoke-screen so that we won't think you're an indie nazi. Lastly, knowing me will not make you cool or really cause anything cool to happen to you. I am not very cool at all. But I can be pretty nice, and I like to think that sometimes I'm funny. I also think I am pretty interesting, too. I also like to think that I am a giant monster made entirely of jelly beans and scotch. So we'll see, I guess. Oh damn it, alright, fine...I'm cool. Oh yeah. My LJ can be found here http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=munia Lastly, I am not going to add your band simply on the grounds that you are vaguely indie, nor simply on the grounds that you play "jazz" and/or have a ukulele and/or banjo player.
Lastly, and most importantly, I am, much like Marry Poppins (if not moreso) practically perfect in every way. .. ..

My Interests

I like drawing and playing music. I like to read and think about stuff. Logic and Ethics, mainly. And doin it with dudes.

I'd like to meet:

Nice people and funny people. And by funny I don't mean re-telling standup comedian's jokes or driving home stereotypes and clichets. Oh yeah, and this guy:

Music:

The Kinks, The Beatles, They Might Be Giants, The Slackers, The Bats, The Bees, The Clean, The Jam, Django Rheinhart, Louis Armstrong, Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, Fletcher Henderson, Squirrel Nut Zippers, The Foureyes, The Bananas, Blur, Aislers Set, Poundsign, Henry's Dress, Trackstar, Sportique, Belle & Sebastian, Camera Obscura, Girls At Our Best, My Bloody Valentine, Kissing Book, Duke Ellington, Sidney Bechet, Fats Waller, Oliver Brown, Bright Ideas, the Ski Instructors, Rock the Light, Nar, Knock Knock, Morrissey, The Smiths, Dead Milkmen, Sam Cook, Percy Sledge, Talulah Gosh, the Zombies, the Who, Razorcuts, the Ramones, the Housemartins, Leon Redbone, Stone Roses, Charlatans UK, Guided by Voices, Stereolab, Velvet Underground, Nuetral Milk Hotel, the Lucksmiths, Elvis Costello, James P Johnson, Eddie Condon, NORK, Jelly Roll Morton, the 6ths, Jay and Joel Show, Magnetic Fields, Apples in Stereo, 20's and 30's hot jazz, dixieland, Cheap Suit Serenaders, String Band, Tchaikovsky, Bach, Mozart, Ravel, Miles Davis, Chet Baker, Cab Calloway

Movies:

Little Man Tate, Miller's Crossing, Barton Fink, The Royal Tennenbaums, Brazil, Lawrence of Arabia, Dr Zhivago, Being John Malkovich, Citizen Cane, Fargo, The Big Lebowski, Toy Story 2 (say what you like, it was a great film), the Aviator, The Man Who Wasn't There, almost anything the Coen Brothers so much as breathe on, and of course the LOTR trilogy.

Television:

The Simpsons. The greatest show ever televised. 'Nuff said. I guess Law & Order, Nero Wolfe, Poirot, Conan Doyle Mysteries, and of course Sherlock Holmes. I dunno, there's just something about period mystery drama. Maybe it's partly due to that I have the soul of 65 year old dude. Stella, Reno 911, Sponge Bob, Arrested Development, Monty Python (I mean, like I could not put it on here). I don't really watch TV that much, though, and really, your realty shows, your Despirate Housewives, your Sex in the Cities and your Queer and Folks can all go screw themselves. Oh yeah, and Ab Fab wasn't that funny. Come on, how many times can you tell the same joke and it's supposed to be funny still?

Books:

Jorge Borges, Doestoyevsky, Mark Twain, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Hunter Thompson, Douglas Adams, Miguel De Cervantes, and burn me for it, but I still like Dickens.

Heroes:

Franklin Roosevelt, Mohandis Gahndi, Amy Linton, Queen Margrethe II of Denmark

Its Hard Being Perfect.

It's especially awful for someone who is perfect to realize that there is a flaw in their perfection. This, some would say, would be and indication that you're not actually perfect, but merely almost ...
