I am here for Dating, Friends and Networking

About Me

I listen to lots of music and like to see shows, mainly at the Casbah. My other sport is...on the recliner..watching terrible television...and I like bars too..dive bars...but hip bars too..not too hip. I'm not a hipster..not yet. I've found karaoke as a nice recipe for a good time. Give me a few drinks and I'll sing you anything from Neil Diamond to N'Sync...really.

My Interests

Music....playing drums, doing a radio show, buying new records, making mix tapes. going to the beach, wakeboarding, snowboarding, hiking, tennis, basketball, soccer, riding rollercoasters, karaoke, hockey games. Staying in touch with friends who find it hard to keep in touch. having as much fun as possible with the great friends I have and yet to meet.img src="http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Alley/1196/angel.j pg"

I'd like to meet:

Tina Fey! concert goers...music lovers....party people....sports viewers (hockey, football, baseball) live or on tv. David Letterman and his intern Stephanie..wow, she's so amazingly cool. If you're down with seeing good bands any day of the week, then we can hang. and..img src="http://smh.com.au/ffximage/2005/01/26/closer_wideweb__4 30x290.jpg"
