I'd like to meet:
People who are into and/or actively participate in art, music, film, animation or other interesting hobbies or pursuits.
Music:
I tend to listen to mainly indie rock and what used to be considered alternative rock: Ween, Pixies, P.J. Harvey, Nick Cave,The Replacements, Camper Van Beethoven, Modest Mouse, Butthole Surfers,Tom Waits, Sonic Youth, Thin White Rope, Mr. Airplaneman, Lost Sounds, Fugazi etc. Some other musicians and groups outside of this genre include: Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Thelonious Monk, John Lee Hooker, Lightning Hopkins, Robert Johnson, Johnny Cash and Hank Williams Sr. etc.
Movies:
I think probably the point when I really started getting into movies was after watching David Lynch's Blue Velvet I think it was the first film to really get my attention. From that point on my taste in movies kind of leaned more towards films that had more dark content. Some of my favorie films include: The Dark Backwards, Johnny Got His Gun, Wild at Heart,Twin Peaks (Fire Walk With Me), Happiness, Being John Malkovich, Freeway, My Own Private Idaho, Barton Fink, Raising Arizona, Parents, , Requiem For a Dream, The Cook, The Thief His Wife and Her Lover,Vampire's Kiss, Dr. Strangelove , the first two Pink Panther Movies, King Pin, The Dancing Outlaw, Fast Cheap And Out Of Control, Killer Clowns From Outerspace, Shakes the Clown etc.....
Television:
I don't usually watch alot of t.v. my televison serves as a video or DVD monitor, we just subscribed to Netflix so a large amount of my spare time has been watching alot of movies. I've been trying to totally maximize my Netflix account and watch more movies than I have time for.
Books:
I tend to read alot of technical books, periodicals and information revolving around my hobbies and interests.
Heroes:
I don't tend to have heroes in the classic sense; but I do look up to people who's mantra is to" go for it "and get the most out of life. Most of my freinds or acquaintances probably would fit this bill they are all actively into something or doing some kind of activity to make this world better, more interesting and fun to live in. So I guess these people would fit my definition of a "hero".
