About Me

Love music, play music, can be found around Chicago playing music three or four nights a week. Read everything I can get my hands on. It's all about rhythm and knowledge and the pursuit of all of it, now.

My Interests

People, performance of almost any kind, things that stir the mind, professional sports. Um, good food, good conversation, lingerie, classic t-shirts, the female form, bodies in motion, blah blah blah, me me me...

I'd like to meet:

People into music and going out to hear it, those who like to have fun who can still form sentences, people you can say anything or nothing to...and Peter Gabriel (just to say thanks).

Music:

I dig stuff that features musical ability; from Bela Fleck to Dream Theater to Al DiMeola and Frank Zappa. Love stuff like Lamb, Radiohead, Marillion, Genesis and Peter Gabriel alongside Fear, Siouxsie, New Order and almost everything released in the first five years of DJ International.I have come full circle as an appreciator of music. From novice to aficionado to street promoter to music editor of a nationally published rave 'zine to jetsetting dj back to joe nightclub and wanna-be bar-band drummer, the rhythm of the beat means even more now than ever before.It is a truly universal language.

Movies:

Enter the Dragon, Being John Malkovich, Casablanca, Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, Phantasm II, Evil Dead II, Pink Floyd: The Wall, The Hidden, Near Dark, Best in Show, Alien

Television:

Is the most horrible thing known to mankind, except for things like The Simpsons, Stargate, Buffy, Invader Zim, Angel, X-Files, ESPN in all its forms, South Park, History Channel

Books:

Anything by Salinger, Vonnegut, Poe. Harry Harrison, Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett are awesome, Tolkien, Asimov, Bradbury, Heinlein

Heroes:

Bruce Lee
