ACHTUNG!! ....

About Me

I play guitar and bass, I just taught myself how to play drums about two years ago. I am lately stuck focusing on the 9-5 job (I gotta eat sometimes), working out at the gym every day possible, preparing to fix up my house. I am interested in forming a new real hardcore band. Listen standing offer always. Some of you know and may remember I used to make several mix tapes way back in the 80's and 90's. I still have a ridiculously ginormous and ludicrous music and film library. I will make and give you a free copy of anything I have. Chances are I probably will have it. Just get in touch.

My Interests

23 years of hardcore punk guitar, Writing stories, scripts, song lyrics and music, Horror films from the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's, Reading literature from the very fine authors to total schlock, I collect LP's, 12"s, 10"s, 7"s, zines, books, DVD's...etc. for preservational purposes, going to the gym daily if I can, plotting to bury all my lovely suburbanite neighbors in my backyard...Help George Tabb...
