MATTHEW FERGUSON : RED ASPHALT BASSIST

About Me

(I will be posting two or three blogs a week, with NEW SHOWS, happen's with RED ASPHALT dates, time and locations. Contest and etc. Thank You! Everybody PLEASE! PLEASE! SUBSCRIBE TODAY! I'm Matthew Ferguson the Bass Player of band named: Red Asphalt also sing the Backing Vocals, sometimes I get to sing lead vocals on "COLD GIN" "KISS" Donnie Lucas, is the Main Vocalist, Dwight Deardorff Lead Guitarist, Kevin Hess, Drummer, sometimes the Lead Vocals of GUTTERBONE subs-in for us. I've been with this band a little over year now. But the band was formed from Left Of Center band with Dwight and Kevin reformed the band and formed RED ASPHALT. We're playing all over. Muncie, Dunkirk, New Castle, Pennville, Hartford City, and some parts of Ohio, Coldwater, Fort Recovery, Sharpsburg, and Greenville. We mainly play COVER song's from the...60's 70's 80's 90's and todays ROCK music. Music like Q95 and X103 radio stations. We're just a band who like's having GREAT TIMES with the people who come to our show's. Here check out the band's we support other local bands like...GUTTERBONE. This is really GREAT band to see "LIVE" You can go through www.redasphalt.net then chick on "LINKS" and then you can go to the other band's web-sites.Well with me I'm 33 the youngest I think! I know I'm the shortest for sure! But I try to keep the bass guitar busy, not unless its a slow song, but we don't do many of those.Are music is based on like bands of Sammy Hagar, Kiss, Lit, Jimi Hendrix, Godsmack, White Zombie, T-Rex, plus song from 60's 70's 80's 90's and todays Heavier Rock. Music from Radio Stations Q95 and X103! PLEASE!!! EVERYBODY I HAVE on my FRIENDS list "SUB" To my BLOGS. I POST ONE A DAY! PLEASE!!!I'm ready to maybe taking on a different direction with music. Some years, I use to play bass for a CHRISTIAN ROCK band from LOUISVILLE, KY during the year 2002, we only got to do four shows, but its something, I may want to go back too. The songs we're all originals and we're making good ground. Sometimes, we have to sail in another route, to find's one self. I believe, I can't write songs or already have written' a song, to changes one heart. Showing a way to helping others. I'm so giving in what I do and I love. But for the last past months, I've been doing alot of thinking? This maybe the way, to be able to help. We'll see in the next few months, what will happen!

My Interests

I like meeting new people! Music is my best interests, but I'm also into computers and some computer games. I also enjoy being in outdoors and living my life the bestway I can enjoy it. I don't ask for much, from anybody I never turn a friend away or down and I always try to go out of my way to help those who need help. One thing I'm into now, is saving the wolves. I've been into wolves for many years, now their being masscre. I want it stopped, because we lose the wolf, mankind will fade into void. www.savewolves.org Please! If you feel the hurt and pain I do for these creatures of GRACE and Love to give to the world. Then help fight these killings. CHRISTIAN Music, Outdoors about anything, just to enjoy life.

I'd like to meet:

KISS, Gene Simmons, is the main person I'd like to meet, but meeting whole band would be the GREATEST DREAM of all times. Actor I would like to meet would be TOM HANKS. I've watched him for many years, never seemed to changed or because ego freak. MAZES and MONSTERS was where I begin enjoy his acting career. I liked him on the T.V. Series BOSSEMS BUDDIES, but the T.V. movie role he took on MAZES and MONSTERS was where it all started.

Music:

Black Sabbath, 3 Door Down, Godsmack, Creed, Lit, Kiss, Dokken, White Zombie, Buckcherry, Motley Crue. These are some bands I like, but I'm into all types of music. 50's 60's 70's 80's 90's 00's and some radio stations music now. KISS is the ones who started it all for me. It wasn't the make-up or costumes it was something more. I didn't want to be just like them, but somewhat like them. I wanted to write and arranged music of my own. But songs I write come from things I see or read about, about life and how to fight your battles through and be greatiful for what life can be and give you! I would love one day to write a song the whole world could understand and relate too. To maybe have everybody look at one another and say... No more! No more wars, No more killing, No more pointing fingers at one another. Lets stop and put all pains and hurts behide us. Live life as one, because like PAUL and John said... "ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE" Music is my gift to "GOD" and I feel I'm being drawed more toward it now! I know my cousin' Wayne Jones! Died at the age of 29! Do to heart failure and waiting on a HEART. Was one of "GOD'S" lambs. Giving himself for the "LORD" I feel if he would have LIVED, I would be helping him give the "Father's words, but it would have been through music.

Movies:

Batman Returns, Mad Max, a great favorite and most of Tom Hanks movies. My favorite of his is: CASTWAY or GREEN MILE. I watched a good scary one Thursday night or Friday called: STAY ALIVE has the guy who plays in T.V. Series Malcalm In The Middle.

Television:

Gene Simmons Family Jewels, Trick My Truck, Weekends I'm always gigging out. Playing the club, bar scene.

Books:

No into much of being a reader. I'll read BLOGS and Messages from Families, Friends and Fans from gigs we do.

Heroes:

The one's I have created in my head, and the "ROCK" SUPERBAND "KISS" "TOM THRASH" The Guitar Wiz "MRS. MILLER" High School Choir Teacher" "MARK SALATIN" Another Guitar Wiz "GENE SIMMONS" The Master Of All Rock Gods" "The Lord Jesus Christ"
