About Me

I'm a guitarist and bassist, not looking for gigs currently. I'm looking for a property where I will set up a project studio recording music and hopefully shooting videos doing comedy and interviews and what ever else I can think of. I think I found a place, in Washington NJ, but we'll see if it all pans out.The name "Queso Con Brio" was a joke. I recorded demos for bands I was in, on the old Tascam Porta-One cassette recorder, and we put on the tapes "Recorded at Queso Con Brio" or Queso Con Brio II or Queso Con Brio mobile recording, or what ever we felt like calling it at the moment. Queso is obviously cheese, Con Brio is a musical term sort of meaning to play the music with a swagger or "ballsy sounding". Usually you'd see it like "Allegro Con Brio" which means fast and vigoriously. "With Balls" is how I used to sum it up. So, Cheese with balls is what Queso Con Brio means. When I do find a place to set up as a studio, I guess I'll still call it Queso Con Brio.Anyway, that is where I'm at right now. That, and I've just finished an Improv 401 class at the UCB in NY. It is a lot of fun.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I don't get the "who I'd like to meet" thing. Is there a reason for it? Well here goes nothing.I'd like to meet Claudia Schiffer 20 years ago. Since that can't happen, how about Jessica Alba, but drunk enough for her to think I'm her type of guy.Really, how about: Mumia Abu Jamal, Ralph Nadar or Amy Goodman.If dead people count: Bobby Kennedy, Jimi Hendrix, or Mauro Giuliani just to hear him play guitar.

Finding a building for my Studio

Man, I don't know what it is with these buildings.  I've seen three buildings in my price range (because I'm a cheap bastard and don't want to tie up much money at all in a building, regardless of the...
