Life is like a box of chocolates..with alot of fuckin nuts

About Me

I am the current drummer for the Columbus,Ohio based metal band Further Lo. I am a hard rock/funk/ thrash metal type drummer. I will not blow smoke and say that I am the greatest drummer that you will ever hear, but I am confident when I say that I am pretty good at what I do. I have a pretty good meter and decent chops. I am nothing really spectacular or special as a person. I am just plain old me, trying to have a good time and entertain people as I make my way.

My Interests

Playing drums and percussion instruments, watching good bands in concert,Playing live shows, having a few drinks and watching the grass grow! I am not a real hard guy to figure out I just like to chill and have a good time and meet people.

I'd like to meet:

A cannibal that doesn't eat dark meat (me), a chinese dude that studders (In chinese),2 midget porn stars, the guy that invented bottled water (pure genius), a wood shop teacher that has all his/her fingers, Someone that knows where hampsters come from, "The Man" (so I can tell him to stop holding people down) and the ghost of my dead pet rabbit so I can say "I told you not to chew on that F*%kin" cord didn't I"

Music:

Well I love all types of music, but I am mostly into hard rock and metal(Yes I know I have heard it before,"What a black guy into metal???!!??) I have way too many influences and bands that I love listening to to name, but I guess you could say my favorites are: Sevendust, Slayer, Kreator, The Beatles, James Brown(R.I.P.), AC/DC, Voivod(After Killing Technology), The Commodores, Molly Hatchet, 24-7 Spyz, 38 Special, Into Eternity, Skynrd, And IVAN AND THE TERRIBLES!! I have a very wide musical taste and to me at least all types of music have something to offer and I like them all. Unresolved

Movies:

Call me a Sci Fi nerd if you like, but I like science fiction, horror, and action movies. Here's a weird fact about me that no one knows, I have seen "The Exorcist" over 100 times, I have seen "Star Wars" probably around 90 times(here's the fucked up part) And "The Wizard of Oz" probably 50 or more times(Yes I actually own the DVD), oh yea and I forgot to mention "Dogma" and "Tremors",I love those movies for some reason. Yes I know it is weird,but when I was growing up it was 6 sisters vs. me. I even like the older "B" horror movies like Rawhead Rex or Motel Hell, Pumpkin head and "It's Alive" (you gotta love anything about killer monster babies) Also my favorite "Motel Hell" "takes all kinda critters to make farmer Vincent fritters"!!. I don't care who you are, you have to admit that old "B" movies have some entertainment value. You can't tell me that when you are having a drink or two and see a movie like "Blackula" that you don't just roll on the floor laughing...... and just wonder what in the fuck they were thinking when they made a masterpiece like that...... wow, when you look at it all written out I guess I am kind of a fucked up person, but who cares I have fun!

Television:

Sports, Cartoons, and some news otherwise I have no use for TV.

Books:

When I do read I like to read Stephen King. Most of his books are great and I just don't understand how he just keeps doing it! I also like biographies and auto biographies about musicians. I like to understand how they draw their inspiration and translate that into their different types of music.

Heroes:

1. Dave Lombardo (because He is the best drummer on the planet) 2. Bootsy Collins (because his persona stood out to me when I was growing up) The Parliment was, as my dad put it "The black people's Kiss" 3. My Mom (my mom and I are pretty tight, after raising 7 kids by herself I think that promotes her to hero status!!) Also anyone that restrains from choking the piss out of their teenage daughter is ok in my book!!
