I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I'm Just Eric...you can call me that. Welcome stalkers, friends, government agencies, alien life forms, and perhaps the 3 hot girls who found me and want to get to know me better (try stepping away from the computer). You probably know me as the door guy at a bar on second avenue in Nashville, or the fun guy chillin' with the craziest people you've ever seen in your life...at a bar on second avenue in Nashville. My current home is McFadden's, with B.B. Kings as the guest house...and Coyote Ugly as the vacation home off on a distant planet. If I know you...awesome. If I don't...I'm sorry, I can't know everyone. If I know your face, I probably don't know your name. If I know your name, you're either an awesome person...or someone who annoys the crap out of me. I've produced, written, played, promoted, managed, consulted, partied with, and/or annoyed most of the bands you listen to...I love all of them and there is nothing but more good times ahead ;) if you go to http://www.myspace.com/mirthle you can probably hear a little something of what I do.

My Interests

FUN! Music, computers, songwriting, producing, playing guitar/piano, classic arcade games (old school), racquetteball, volleyball, drinking with crazy-fun/drama-free people (yes, it does exist), smiles, cooking, people watching, sitting in front of a fireplace and doing nothing

I'd like to meet:

Music:

Damon Carroll , Michael Davey , Dream Theater, Howie Day, Willy Porter, Butch Walker (anything that has his name to it...the man is a genius!), Family Force Five, John Mayer, Alter Bridge, Kiss, Sevendust, Sick Puppies , Big Wreck, Michael J, Dark New Day , Amos Lee , Extreme (probably the only 80's band I still listen to), Dishwalla, Slipknot, Our Lady Peace, Barry Manilow, Ryan Adams, Virgos Merlot, Angie Aparo, From Zero (1st album), The Blank Theory, Disturbed, Sugarcult, Spill Canvas, In Flames, Days Away, Graham Colton, and lots of other stuff that isn't the flavor of the month.

Books:

I don't read as much as I should...so I'm dumb. I like more informative stuff than fiction I guess. If I made an actual list of books I've read you'd think I was smart...so this will obviously remain pretty much empty ;)

Heroes:

Danna, Martin, Erin, Gene Simmons (yes of Kiss), John Petrucci and Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater, Butch Walker, Michael Davey, Cecil, John Robertson@Floyd's, Dan Mitchell, Billy and Chip Davis, Clive Davis, Phil Ramone, Rick Rubin, Matt Serletic, my uncle Ted, my little brother Kevin (I probably look up to him more than he does me), Mr. Tim Baldwin in Columbia, Mo. who taught me everything I know about music and inspired me to be something...even though he's probably completely unaware of it. Simon Cowell on American Idol for telling people what they NEED to hear instead of inflating the ego of the untalented.

You’d never recognize me...

If you saw a picture of me 4 years ago versus one from now, I'm hardly the same person. I'm now more fit than I've been since High School (maybe even Junior High), I'm working security for a living (a...

Because sometimes it just feels right

I gave my 2 weeks notice to Coyote Ugly last Friday. I'm seriously going to miss the place, but it's time to get back to the ol' musical grind. I guess I have some kind of Jerry Mcguire complex or som...
