Trying to be some kind of rock 'n' roll hero...

About Me

My life revolves around music. I have played guitar for over 16 years. I play with two bands: GABRIEL BURNS, and MALICE. Here are some updates on them:
GABRIEL BURNS
Currently, GB is spending time writing new material. This is something that we really needed. I'm sure that GB fans will be glad to hear new stuff once it is all said and done.

MALICE
"Visions of Them" is Malice's first original song. Just working on tightening it up. We'll be performing it live for the first time at a party on the 29th.

INTERESTS

I enjoy a strange variety of music. I am really into experimental sorts of bands/artists...some popular, some not. I'm really into bands that have a unique sound that you can recognize.
I am a horror movie fanatic. Not to say that I don't enjoy other genres, it's just that I was raised on lots of horror and I can't get enough of it. If you know of a good horror flick that you think I'd be into, PLEASE let me know.
I am a naturally shy person. I usually do not have much to say when in a crowd of people. I tend to bounce back and forth between people that I know and attempt to join the conversation.
Presently, I am living happily with my fiance' Tracy and our two beautiful daughters Alyssa (7 y/o) and Melody (1 y/o). Waiting patiently for our house to be built. Can't wait to move! Work, sleep, play music, family. It's heaven.

My Interests

Guitar, Horror Flicks, Webdesign, Chess, Poker, Any genre of music except for dance, rap, and techno.In my spare time, I write music, sing, play poker, party with my friends, watch movies, and spend time with my wonderful family.

I'd like to meet:
