About Me

"You need people like me, so you can point your fucking fingers, and say that's the bad guy..."
I am the infamous & maniacal one known as J@RG0. I am a husband of almost 7 years, a father for 5, a drummer from past bands known as Fabrication & The Urban Hate Machine, as well as currently the keyboardist/sampler for Cedar Rapids Iowa based industrial metal band Neumatic.
I like computers, I make music on them. Via Reason version 4.0 & Fruity Loops. I enjoy taking music other people have created, and making it better, or rearranging it to sound like something completely different. I also enjoy making funny noises behind an extreme metal band while screaming at the top of my lungs.
I'm enthralled by comic book lore, weather it be by choice or by chance. "The jokes on me cause I always fuck it up, I never look before I reach ya know I always jump the gun, don't believe in me well you're not the only one, I'll be the one one left standing when I'm done...ha mother fucker ha mother fucker ha" As represented by The Joker tattoo on my arm, as well as my indulgence into the world of DC.
I absolutely fucking hate people. Not you, of course you're special, I mean people as a whole. Society. "The only way to be social in an anti society is to be anti social." That's my quote, feel free to steal it and make it your headline.
Two things mean something in this world. Family, and music. My family & my music dictate everything that I am, and everything I become. Without either of them, I am everything, I am nothing. Family is not dictated by blood, but rather by emotion. My blood, my band, my friends, my family.
I work at Guitar Center here in Cedar Rapids Iowa. (Contrary to what you may have heard, the entire city did not wash away.) I love to hate my job, I hate to love my job, they'll have to throw me out of the place to ever get rid of me. I work for corporate america, and stick it to the man every chance I get. I'm honest with my customers, and I expect the same from them. I'm the department manager of the accessories area, however I also sell guitars, and pro audio equipment. I'm formerly the drum room manager as well. If you have any questions regarding drums, chances are I can give you an answer, if not, I'll probably wanna know too. Come see me, I'd love to sell you your dreams.
I think that's enough. See you know all this about me, now what do I know about you...

I'd like to meet:

Come the fuck on, between my family life, work schedule, and band do you really think I have time to meet anybody unless it's through work or at a show? I mean seriously! I work Wednesday - Sunday pretty much from the time any normal person should be rolling out of bed until it's time to come home, have dinner and put my daughter to bed. I don't have time to meet people. And 3/4 of them I really don't want to meet anyway. Let's face it, people = shit! The American public is filled with a bunch of unfortunate accidents, and individuals with no sense of direction or ambition to get out and do anything with their lives.

Hi my name is Jorge and I work at the local factory cause my pa did, and his pa did, and his pa did. Great, good for you, I hope your happy. Giving up on your dreams, your ambitions, your desires just for a normal 9 - 5 so you can breeze through this game called life without ever really figuring anything out. Congradulations, you're a fuckin' moron.

I surround myself with people who have purpose. People who are just crazy enough to say "FUCK YEAH I'LL DO THAT"! I don't give a shit if you gotta be at work at 5am, come drink with me till 10 go home and get some sleep. Or fuck that shitty job, I'm going to find one I actually like and enjoy!!! Heaven fucking forbid if someone says "how was work" and I come back with "It fucking rocked".

The reality is, I'm just a boreing guy on the other end of a computer. Expressing thoughts, not necessarily idea's. I don't want to meet you. If I do, it's by random chance. And if or when that time comes, that I can actually call you a "friend", then that means you get it.

Drums:My drums have consumed my life with my current position of employment. I spend all day with drums, around drums, and tweaking drums. Yeah, I know, life's rough.

Yeah, sorry bout your luck.Regardless of all of that, I do know some people are into this sort of thing, so here's the run down of my current kit.Tama Starclassic Maple

Movies:

I would like to take this opportunity to damn Hollywood and the independant film companies for ruining one of the holiest forms of art known to man kind, aka Film. You sons of bitchs and your fucking sequels can all burn in hell, and so help me God if they actually release a "Big Mamma's House 3" I'm gonna go ballistic and fucking kill someone. Stop making shitty B rate movies, let alone a fucking trilogy. There's only one holy trilogy, and no you hobit fucks it's not Lord Of The Rings. You're ruining all that's left sacred in this world, eye contact, hand....

Television:

Television has become almost as sickening as it's film and mass corporate music counterparts. It's full of shitty reality TV shows and Golf. (Oh yeah, Golf fuckin' sucks, and if you are a golfer, or for some unknown fucking reason enjoy watching it on TV, it's called life, try living it.) I normally have the TV on, but more for background noise than anything. Having a 3 year old seriously inhibits my television watching ability, however I still find time for the following shows:

24
Jericho
Hells Kitchen
Big Brother
Family Guy
The Office
NFL
ESPN
CSI
Law & Order
The History Channel
Boston Legal
The Big Bang Theory

Books:

I hate to fucking read, however a couple publications I'm forced to because of my occupation. They are as follows:

Modern Drummer
DRUM
Rolling Stone (even though it sucks now)
Revolver
Just about any comic book

Heroes:

The Cyanide Child
