ROCK ON!

About Me

Check out my band Aftershok at www.aftershok.com , or if you prefer, myspace.com/aftershok

If you are into classic American hard rock and metal, give us a listen- what do you have to lose?

My Interests

Music, literature, running, hiking, basketball, the great outdoors and even a few cultural activities thrown in for good measure.

I'd like to meet:

Interesting and intelligent people, music fans and anyone who has something that they would like to write about. Drop me a line to say hello- I'd like to hear what you have to say!

By the way, if we are going to be friends, don't you think you should write first and introduce yourself instead of trying to blindly add me to your list? It makes me feel so cheap!

Music:

Rock, blues, jazz and classical; however, in my opinion, hard rock and metal just can't be beat!

A few of my big favories are Dokken, Dio, Schenker, Ratt, Yngwie, Savatage, Racer X, Scorpions, XYZ...you get the idea.

Movies:

Science fiction, comedy and action! There's quite enough drama in everyday life, isn't there? I prefer not to spend my time re-living it on the screen!

Television:

Comedy Central and the Cartoon Network are all that matters!

Books:

Philosophy, English literature and fantasy/science fiction (not necessarily in that order!).

Heroes:

That's really a tough one because there are so many writers, musicians, artists and intellectual figures throughout history that intrigue me. Aristotle, Michael Jordan, George Lynch, Robert E. Howard, Mozart, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Leonardo da Vinci...
Let me know what you're up to- maybe I can add you to the list and you can be my new hero?
