I am here for Dating, Serious Relationships, Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm a musician and a music teacher. I enjoy working with high school kids cuz their youthful exuberance keeps me feeling young. Wait no, what am I talking about? They're a bunch of lazy asses and my old butt has more energy than theirs! Haha, just kidding guys (cuz I know you're reading this)... I'm down to earth, easy going, and active (ice hockey, snowboarding, camping, fly-fishing, rafting). I'm pretty comfortable on a snowboard though I'm not too good at jumping yet. Actually I'm not bad at jumping, I'm just really bad at landing! I'm generally light hearted and try not to take myself too seriously. Music has taken me around the world as I've toured on 4 continents and played for who knows how many hundreds of thousands of people. I'm pretty happy being settled in one place for now and I'd like to meet more people around here!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

someone to chill with, someone to play with, someone who likes a little adventure now and then but still enjoys a lazy night in as well. someone who's youthful at heart and knows how to take themself lightly. someone witty and playfully sarcastic since I seem to feed off of that. someone smart and educated since I seem to find that attractive. more than anything, someone I can talk to 'til the wee hours of the morning about life and whatever may come to our minds.

Music:

it's impossible to list everthing or even just genres that I listen to but for the most part I categorize my music into either non-jazz or jazz.
in the non jazz world here's a lot of what I've been listening to lately and some old favorites: aqualung, radiohead, coldplay, beck, switchfoot, oasis, death cab for cutie, frou frou, matchbox 20, duncan sheik, ozomatli, bill withers, garbage, steely dan, crowded house, u2, level 42
in the jazz world, there's just WAY too many to list but these people come to mind first: cannonball adderly, lee morgan, dexter gordon, david sanchez, keith jarrett, maria schneider, charlie hunter

Television:

I don't watch much these days besides an occasional sharks or giants game, but when I do watch TV I like funny stuff like scrubs. and if I have a few minutes to spare while I'm eating I'll often turn on food network (oh crap, did I just admit that?)
