My Interests

Music is Definatly a Gigantonormous part of my life. Sometimes I even dream music well sometimes being once. I don't listen to as much music as I play music. I heard somewhere in order to become a great musician you have to listen to music and create music but I'm not a "Great" musician .... ... Yet. I play guitar. Im not just playing songs though I'm making music , learning new songs, memorizing scales chords etc, Memorizing Theory, Training my ear, Playing by ear and just jamming with myself. Whatever pops into my head I play pretty much I hear noises and they tell me to write things. My Musical Influences are : Steve Vai, Frank Zappa, Jason Becker, Yngwie Malmsteen was for awhile, Nobuo Uematsu, Ennio Morricone, Im sure there are others I just cant recall them at the moment. Oh yes and recently I have taken an interest in Children of Bodom well Alexi Laiho's playing at least he's incredible.

I'd like to meet:

People who will Jam with me.

Music:

I listen to varying styles like Metal, R and B, Bulgarian wedding music, Jazz, Whatever Steve Vai's Genre is. Lately for some odd reason I enjoy Aaron Neville's singing particularly his voice is so soothing. I try not to categorize music it doesn't aid in anything. Lately I have been listening alot more to music much more than before and it's incredible. I therally enjoy sitting down and becoming enraptured in the music and it's something I have only of recent begun doing.

Movies:

Legend of 1900 is by far the greatest movie I have ever witnessed.

Television:

Is pointless

Books:

I don't read much nowadays which is sad because I enjoy reading alot. I think I might just go get a book tommorow I can read before I go to sleep. I have troubles sleeping at night Ill go to sleep 1:00am and actually get to sleep 4:30am ish It's pretty ridiculous. In grade 12 I am taking english literature which should provide me with some time to read. The whole course is based on utopian societies!Frankenstein was a great book, I can relate to Victor too much and even though it's not written in a modern tongue thats what also makes it so alluring to me at least.

Heroes:

Bach,Beethoven,Mozart,Paganini the classical guys I forgot to mention in my interests. Oh of course Bruce Campbell Those guys are nothing compared to my true with out a doubt hero, Jason Becker. He is my music(not just guitar) hero and my personal hero. He has faced many a trial and just lived life and been content. If you want to know more go to his webpage jasonbecker.com.
