About Me

http://www.flickr.com/photos/rvdoa/ DOES ANYBODY ACTUALLY READ THIS OR AM I JUST GOING DURBY DURBY TWEEDLE DE DERBY DERBY DERB?R.V.D.O.A. stands for my initials & Digital Organic Art. OK? It's got nothing to do w/ 'dead on arrival'. it just worked out like that.At first, I had ONLY my own stuff on here, but I got turned on to that way cool music player and decided to share tunes I like that aren't mine. If you'd like to hear stuff I've played on, or produced, go the the RVDOA music page and check those out.My life is the stuff they (whoever THEY are) write movies about. I've been up, way up, and down way down. I've found ways to be creative and in front of an audience of some sort for as long as I can remember. I've been on thousands of stages as a musician, comedian, crappy actor, speaker, emcee, DJ, you name it I've done it. (the first one who says 'gay midget porn' gets their ass kicked) I had the pleasure & misfortune to meet thousands of people in this journey called life. And I just keep on keepin' on. I thought I'd mellow as I grew older, but somehow I never got that memo. http://www.flickr.com/photos/rvdoa/

My Interests

Photograpy, art, music, audio production, video production, improv comedy, shooting bullseyes w/ my pistol. I've written smut for a well-known site, produced 19 albums for people over the years. In one form or another, most of my life has been centered around creativity and entertainment.

I'd like to meet:

Judas Iscariot. I'd have to ask him just what the fuck he was thinking. Lots of others too, but I don't feel like messing w/ all that right now. Biggen-Manley Tools

Music:

Look, I've been around for 50 years, how could I POSSIBLY even start that list? I was there when Elvis, the Beatles, Dark Side of the Moon (most important album EVER!), punk, disco, new wave, alternative, metal ALL STARTED. Well. maybe not Elvis, but the rest I was there for.

Movies:

GRINDHOUSE!!! Planet Terror/Death Proof, my current faves. I dig Tarantino, a lot of classics that I love turning younger people on to. You know, movies with a STORY! There was an interesting comment on CSI episode revolving around film students where someone made the comment that 'movies today are all style, no substance.' The reply was "style IS the new substance'. So was that art imitating life imitating art etc, etc? I get confused on these things.

Television:

CSI, Svengoolie, Price is Right, Jeapordy, Wheel of Fortune, morning news. I watch TV w/ the sound off, it's more interesting that way. Barbies Gone Wild

Books:

Mostly tech stuff, and self-awareness books. I learned a lot recently about myself and why I did certain things for so many years.

Heroes:

There's only one person who ever saved me. I've never met him, but I hope to someday. Fussmucker's Mukluks
