Writing the weblog "Of What It Is" Making and enjoying music and films, journalism and projects of all sorts. Sometimes I go fishing.
The people and bands I write about. If you happen to find out I have written and would be willing to an email interview I can be contacted at [email protected]. I'm also interested in interviewing regular people that work in record stores and movie theaters(especially independent ones!, comedy clubs or audio engineers, stagehands, gaffers, best boys and bouncers for rock clubs. The real story doesn't have to be the stars we are made to worship.
All kinds but a focus on Indie, Hip-Hop, Hardcore and Metal.I tend to procure advance copies of albums so my reviews can stay fresh.
Here is a list of the top 10 bands played on my computer for the last week. It tends to be electic...
Independent and Foreign mainly but anything original is covered. I work at a movie theater so I see alot of movies for free. I just wish I had time to see all the ones I want to. And while were on the subject... when you leave the theater, put your trash in a can and don't act like a jerk when I ask you to get your feet off the seats, and I won't come to your work and make a big mess and put my feet somewhere where your customers put their heads. Or leave a mess and act like a jerk, whatever I don't care...
Comedy and premium channel dramas(sometimes). I get most of my television via tivo or the internet so I never see commercials unless I watch something in "real time". Mr.Show, Home Movies, Sarah Silverman Program, The State, Freaks And Geeks, The Wonder Years(you know you like it too)
Classic, Non-Fiction, Surreal, Sci-Fi. I try to as often as I can but sometimes(as in pretty much all the time) reading gets put off for other things... The last good book I read was the wind up bird chronicles by Haruki Murakami, I highly recomend it.
Ian Mckaye, Dan Savage, Tony Jaa, Steve Albini, Penn and Teller,
