My Interests

Lots of things. Curently in the grip of my Photography Obsession.

I'd like to meet:

Artistic People.
Cool People.
Outdoorsy People.
Interesting People.

In Short...
People.

Music:

Little bit of just about everything. iTunes says that most recently I've playing lots of: Man Man , Lily Allen , Amy Winehouse , The Dresden Dolls , Tift Merritt , The Comfies , Iron &amp Wine with Calexico , The New Pornographers (who I got to catch live and on film at Southgate House in October), Neko Case *sigh* , the Heartless Bastards , the Decemberists , the Master of Disaster Mr. John Hiatt , Damien Rice , Son Volt , the Old 97s , the nicest people in music who I'm proud to call my friends, Sunspot . Kim Taylor who runs the coffee shop up the street, Emily Strand who is so cool that she personally sent me one of her out-of-print CDs, Whitney Barricklow and the Whitney Barricklow Band who are always willing to be photographed, The Minni-Thins , The Newbees , The Shirts , Lovely Crash , the Screaming Mimes , 500 Miles to Memphis , the Turnbull ACs , and more but its late and I require sleep...

Movies:

Do you want that list alphabetically or chronologically?

Television:

Sundays on HBO (Rome, Sopranos, Carnivale, Deadwood, Six Feet Under, etc), Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis, random documentaries on the HDTV channels, BBC America, wishing there was more Firefly for TV, but Serenity will have to do. ;)

Books:

Douglas Adams is and always will be the king. So that means the Hitchhiker's Guide and Dirk Gently books. Past him, humorous fiction is the best. Eric Garcia and his Rex books (soon to be a new series on Sci-Fi), anything by Chris Moore (you have to love a book titled "Lamb, the Gospel according to Biff, Christ's childhood pal"), Robert Rankin especially "The Hollow Chocolate Bunnies of the Apocalypse", Tom Holt, Bill Fitzhugh, total Harry Potter geek, Neil Gaiman, Bill Bryson, and many many more.

Shameless Self-Promotion

So, many moons ago, I was listening to the radio and heard this new blue-eyed soul singer, James Hunter.  Amazing stuff that you'd swear came right out of the mind of Sam Cooke or Otis Redding.Ba...
