it hasn't killed me yet but give it time

About Me

I played guitar in a punk rock band for 9 years or so, now I play slow sad bastard music. I enjoy ginger ale on airplanes, I always put my left shoe on first, and I've had a hole in my right middle figernail for a few months now...which really hurts when I play guitar. By the way, my name is pronounced like books, crooks, looks...Stooks.
