%D%A%D%A%D%A%D%AHey everybody what's up? This is my second revision of my about me section of my profile. Guess I will just go with it like I always do. My name is Eric. I recently turned 23. I live in Saginaw, Texas. A suburb of the city of Fort Worth. It was annexed into Fort Worth shortly before I moved to Texas. For those who don't know where it is. It's close to Lake Worth. I was born March 23rd of 1983 in Helsinki, Finland. Yes I am 100% Finnish and very proud of where I am from. My dad was a restless spirit. So that is what brought us to the U.S. I lived in Edgewater, Colorado (the home of the great Cephalic Carnage) from the time I was 5 till I was 17. When I graduated Jefferson High and then moved out Cali where I attended USC. I majored in Audio and Media Technology with a minor in promotion and management. When I graduated due to my dad and grandma's health and them slowly dying I moved to Texas. Have been here almost a year. I own my own promotion and management company. Down IN Flames Entertainment. Also I recently got involved with the most amazing group of people. Renegade Radio. Where I write Reviews for bands as well as soon to have my own show. Down IN Flames Radio. I am 6'5. Yes I am really 6'5. I am not some midget whose putting up a random height to act taller lol. I have my tongue pierced twice, ears, nipples, eyebrow and labret. I have a dragon on my back between shoulders, the Finnish Flag on the back of my lower neck, barbed wire on my upper left arm, a sun on my upper right arm, and quarter sleeves on my arms of rings of druids knots around my wrist with flames coming off them. Yes I have other pics of myself, ask nicely and provide a email and I may send more. I may not too. Depends. I can play drums, bass, piano and guitar. As well as have been in my share of bands in my life. I am a huge extreme sports freak. I love stuff that gives me a adrenaline rush. I sky dive, cliff dive, surf, snowboard,wakeboard,bungee jump and much more. Interests would include anything to do with music, sports, fun, or a lot of other things!! Bands I like are Morian, Thorshamrar, Stillbirth, Dimmu Borgir, Behemoth, Fireball Ministry, Crisis, Borknagar, Among The Decayed, Evergrey, Kataklysm, Kreator, Down, In Flames, Soilwork, Children of Bodom, Opeth, Otep, God Forbid, Adagio, Vanden Plas, Sonota Arctica, Heaven Shall Burn, Cellout, Shadows Fall, Lamb of God, Hate Eternal, Nile, Slayer, Exodus, and many many others!! I have a huge list I know. Most of them are bands or people affiliated with music somehow. Check them out. Please show support to all these bands as well as any other bands out there. They deserve out utmost respect and all our support!! I have a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. So if you see a black Laredo out there with a dragon on its back window that me :) Anyway I can help any of you all. Physically, be a ear to listen, or whatever please don't hesitate. I will do what I can. Anything else you want to know please ask. Bands please send me your banners and stuff and I will post them. As well as radio, managers and other things affiliated with music. Take care and be safe. Laters Also if you are a band needing or wanting airplay, please email me for details on how to get on my show and how to have me network you to other radio. As well as if you interested in details about my management and promotion company. Laters%D%A%D%A%D%A%D%A%D%A
