About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

I'm in my fourth year at Dalhousie University taking a Marketing Management degree. I'm going to work for a record label when I graduate and I'm doing anything I can now to make sure that happens.

I use MySpace to further my interest in music and help promote local bands. The only seven contacts that are not bands on my account are Arts & Crafts (Canadian Label), Dependent Music (Local Label), a good friend of mine and New York connection: Gaelle from New York, Myspace Records, ArtistXite, Halifax Pop Explosion, and the girl of my dreams, Kelly.

My childhood friend's band: BTA is always at the top of my list. He's incredibly talented and is going to make it big with or without my help. Everybody should check out his sound and let him know what they think.

My Interests

Industrial/Glam/Ambient Rock music, Cooking (I'm a sucker for a good meal), Business, and Marketing.

I'd like to meet:

Marilyn Manson, Yolanda from Aussie-land, Gaelle from New York, Trent Reznor, Maynard James Keenan, Jeordie White, Zim Zum, Naomi Watts, Edward Norton, Chuck Palahniuk, and Fiona Apple.

Music:

There are too many now to play favorites. I'm a fan of every band you'll find on my friend list. The top 24 you see to the right are there because they are the flavor of the week and I want to get them some more attention. The very top of the list consists of labels, connections, and local talent featuring the best Nova Scotia has to offer - Give them all a chance.

Movies:

Fight Club, American Beauty, American History X, Training Day, Magnolia, Memento, Gangs of New York, Seven, 12 Monkeys.

Television:

Six Feet Under, The Colbert Report, Family Guy, South Park, Venture Bros, Harvey Birdman Attourney at Law, Clone High, Undergrads, Simpsons (the older episodes).

Books:

Long Hard Road out of Hell, NIN Bibliography (Any auto biographies on artists are interesting). Unspeakable Practices, Unnatural Acts (Any experimental Fiction is really good too). Absolutely anything written by Chuck Palahniuk is gold in my eyes. Fight club, Haunted, and Invisible Monsters are my favorites.

Heroes:

Jeordie White, Marilyn Manson, Trent Reznor, Tom Whalen, and the main character (not the actor mind you) in 'Thank You For Smoking', and Chuck Palahniuk.
