About Me

I like bad jokes. I also like bad music. I've been known to self-levitate from time to time. My friends love to call me a complete fucking music snob, I say I'm a discerning listener. I can ruin any conversation with three sentences or less so don't test me. Oh, and I don't like whores. I do however love Groucho Marx quotes.

My Interests

Playing music, working, surviving. My friends. Life universe everything.

I'd like to meet:

Greg Graffin, Ian Macaye, John Reis, Chris Eigeman, Joe Lally, people who've heard of Minor Threat, Sidekick Kato, and who don't make me feel old.

Music:

These Arms Are Snakes(Tits), Jesus Lizard, Shiner, Planesmistakenforstars, Freezepop, Rocket From The Crypt, Quicksand, Bad Brains, Blonde Redhead, anything Louisville or Kansas City (MO), Stuff that causes me to dance the Rerun or the Carlton.

Movies:

Mostly bad movies, I mostly hate French & Korean films because of Bob. Avoid the Piano Teacher-I was speechless.

Television:

Cops & Full House

Books:

Catcher In The Rye, A Clockwork Orange, Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas, Naked Lunch...just kidding, that book sucked! Anything from Dave Sedaris.

Heroes:

Mike Phelps and Nick Bromen, oh and Brian Skipworth. Save Me Gentlemen!
