About Me

Yah I just moved back to my hometown after a little over 2 years in San Diego. I miss it of course.. ok maybe not the cost of living :P Anyway, I am who I am so take it or leave it.. that is all :P I like a lot of interesting and obscure things.. I am fairly smart if a bit impulsive.. get to know me and you will probably get an earful about things you may not have previously known about.. or may not have wanted to know about.. anyway I have a fairly decent heart wrapped around sheetrock, skin, some bones, and a thick coat of platemail armor.. if you care to hack away at me to get to it be my guest :PI'm a Cancer. I am louder and more social than most. I am still shy in many of the typical "Cancerian" regards though.I play bass and if you are a Huntsville based musician that is available for collaboration then I would like to meet you! I have experience playing in bands and if you want to hear the last project I was in then go herehttp://www.myspace.com/entertainmentthey are an Atlanta based absurdist glam/post-punk group and are in fact still around and have gained recognition in many underground circles..anyway I would love to collaborate especially if it is offbeat, dark, etc.
You scored as The Teardrop Explodes. Liverpool’s The Teardrop Explodes were one of the few post-punk band to achieve commercial success, with their eccentric front-man Julian Cope becoming an unlikely pin up in the early 80s. Their music was often called ‘neo-psychedelic’ due to their sixties sound and Cope’s surreal lyrics, best heard on 1980’s classic ‘Kilimanjaro’.
