Check Your Head!!

About Me

A Metal Head is what I am, first and foremost. I'll always listen to heavy music, because it has so much energy, and makes you think by pushing what music is thought to be. I'm an open minded person, so I like many different bands/genres. On the other hand, mellow tripped out music evens out my soul. Something layered with melody or soundscapes of sounds suites me just fine. If you know me though, I have a wide range of musical tastes. I also write for a webzine named Tartarean Desire (http://tartareandesire.com). I review albums, and interview different musicians in metal/punk music. That's my contribution to the music scene.I'm a good person, with a lot of creative ideas. Through photography and work, that's where I get my ideas out. I produce quality programming for television. Is it liked by all?? Nope. Just watch it and decide for yourself. Channlel 11. . ... (Only in Cornwall, ha ha)I've been around!! Hong Kong (the coolest!!), Thailand, the Philippines, California, and many other States. I've been across Canada, but need to see the East Coast, and the Territories. .. .I care about people and life. Sometimes too much. I try to be the best person that I can be, and wish others would do the same. The experiences that I've endured in life haven't all been good, but each experience has been a leason to me.That's all for now. Cheers.
