Georgius Local Indie Rock Society

Music:

Member Since: 7/13/2004
Band Website: I currently have no plans to make a website.
Band Members:

Mission Statement: I'm not a BAND! I'm just a person who likes to home record. I'm looking to collect as many fans, friends, venues, and musicians who are into the same music I love. I'm not on MySpace to HOOK UP! If you are interested in the same type of music and just want a place to help you locate upcoming shows, please join. All underground bands, fans, and friends are welcome.&nbsp.

Unfortunately, MySpace has not taken into consideration those individuals like myself, who are not advertising a band, but are just joe-shmoes who like to dabble in home recording and would like to post his own music. Because of this, I've converted my account to a band account. This also will unfortunately not allow people to find me as easily in the search engine, and once I converted my account, I'm unable to convert it back to the traditional individual account. So, in the case of pure interest in friendship and the desire to collect as many people in the Indianapolis area, I will provide my own profile:

Orientation: Extremely disoriented...borderline vertigo

Sex: Male Age: 36 as of 10/28 2006

Here For: Friends, musicians, bands, and rockers who want to go to local shows and venues to support the scene. Anybody who wants to help establish an all-ages venue, please network here. You'll find some genuine interest here. Be sure to scroll down to see ads for local bands selling their music the comments people make. Again, MySpace has not thought out a layout that is conducive to my lifestyle.

My Birthday: 10/28/1970

Please ping me on my birthday! Nobody get's a warning that my birthday is coming up and I feel neglected as I get older.

MySpace Purpose Statement: I'm here primarily to connect people to the local music scene here in Indianapolis, IN; Morgantown, WV; and Chapel Hill, NC. I'm not here for dating. Call me old fashioned, but I like to do that kinda thing the traditional way. I am here to meet some really cool people, and hope to bump into many of you at a show or two. If you have friends who are interested in local underground music, know of a band that falls into this genre, are in a band that falls into this genre, or know someone who owns a venue that supports the local scene, please forward them here. My intention is to continue to help the community solidify a great all-ages club in Indianapolis that is permanent, stable, and successful. If you have any suggestions, I'm all ears.

About Me:
I'm at a loss as to why Indiancrapolis doesn't have a better music scene. Indy is the 12th largest city in the country. What's up with our music scene?
I am called by some, Georgius, by most George, by drunk people "Georgie," and by a very few, "Jorge T. Nelson" Why? Fuck if I know! I guess I'm a man of many faces and names.

My Physical Appearance Is Overwhelmed by My Innards:
I'm profoundly average; (if I may borrow from Polvo) I'm decorated on the inside. I fought many wars and lost more than I've won, yet I'm recognized and rewarded by the many about whom I affectionately care. I like to rock. Yeah that's right. I like to rock out. I really appreciate Mexican and Greek food (also Sushi), but only if I'm not bloated, flatulent, or extremely wasted. There are always exceptions. I sometimes like to play baseball, but I hate watching it. I hate to play golf and watch it, and I love to watch football, but hate playing it unless it's two-hand touch, or coed-tackle. . . ahhhhh College football. . . Go: : Mountaineers: .

The People with Whom I Share:
I like anyone who wears a baseball cap every now and then. It's just a trend I've noticed. Both men and women who don't wear baseball caps seem to be kind of stuffy. On the other hand, people who constantly wear baseball caps tend to be obnoxious. Could be me . I don't know. In fact, I like people who wear hats in general, the wackier the bettah! I need to wear hats more often I think. If I were given a 4th wish by a genie (one I could waste), I'd wish for a closet full of different hats and wigs. Man . . . write that down . . . a hat party. . .

Things I Like:
I like anything fresh and different, unless it's exotic food, in which case I prefer fresh. I salute bold humor. I'm quite infatuated with women who will break into collqiualisms using different accents and dialects for fun, upon request, in public places, and during serious conversations. Above all, I spend most of my life searching for people who can walk into a room, with a flag sticking out of the crack of their ass without a second thought of the consequences. Let Your Freak Flag Fly! I like to be the unexpected surprise. BOO! All elbows 'n giggles, I talk to perfect strangers as if they're close friends, and on rare occasions, to best friends as if perfect strangers. I am somewhat shy at times, and outgoing at others. I have anxiety and depression and I love it. I love being a loser. I wouldn't have it any other way. I like beer--PBR to Guinness, it doesn't matter as long as the convo is cool. Big Macs to Sushi, cheeseball to prophetic I am a shiny coin in a port-o-potty.

I would read them though. I'm not ashamed to admit my geekiness. I'm into unabridged audio books. did i just write that? I'm into audiobooks. I'm not into them. I just collect them for FREE! I listen to a book or 2 a week. Long commute to the northside to work. Unfortunately, I don't pay attention to the authors unless I know them or I really, really like them. Eco. Although I've read many great books, I'm waiting to read the best book I've ever read.

Influences:

I'm Influenced by mother fuckin' cool independent people who are artists. I love you people and I hope you stick with the music scene here. It has suffered greatly due to monopolistic ownerships of venues. Broadripple has been raped. I moved to Greenwood so I could get to the city, where most of the good underground venues seem to be. I'm in constant search for underground venues. So far the ones I've discovered are

1. Melody Inn
2. Radio Radio
3.. Locals Only (a venue on the north east side of town, around Keystone and 50 something. Food is great. . . venue is really small and divish, but has a great selection of beers)
4. Knights of Columbus across from Birdys (saw Fugazi there)
5. The Vogue (Makes me wanna puke for the most part, but occasionally gets a great band.
6. The Murat (expensive but of high quality)
7. The Emerson (an all ages venue with terrible acoustics)
8 Birdy's (trendy but occasionally has a good show)
9. Luna on the north side (has some shows in the afternoon which are worth checkin' out).
10. Second Story (Bloomington)

Hopefully More to Come as I discover them.

Sounds Like: Sounds like MySpace really needs to redesign its site. Please don't feel intimidated by my friend requests. I know many @ssholes like to request friends in hopes of finding their ideal mate or are out for booty calls. Perhaps I may stumble across a person like myself and fall in love etc. but in all honesty, I'm just not ready for those types of commitments. I enjoy my bachelor life quite a lot and I enjoy the company of many people (not in a sexual way so don't take that wrong). I wish I could say that I want to get married and have kids, but unfortunately, I haven't met a woman that holds a similar outlook on life, can tolerate my slightly anxious and depressive mood swings, or who shares my interests so much so, that I have little to question about the relationship. I've had many failed relationships, mainly because I don't like losing my sense of self and individuality. I believe that when I meet someone, I'll know for sure this person is for me, so I don't go looking for them. I'd much prefer to stumble across them. I also, having met so many cool people and loving females here on myspace, that I would hate risking a great friendship by entering a more serious relationship. If I were to ever pursue a relationship with someone I've met on MySpace, I'd genuinely would have to have known them and met them and hung out with them for at least 6 months to a year. Call that old fashioned, whatever. . . meeting people on myspace in real life has been a thrill and a little surreal. I try to represent myself as honestly as possible. If you are female and are reluctant to accept my invitation becuase you've encountered some less than cordial individuals, please at least take the risk to accept my friendship as purely one of artistic endeavour. If you are male, please don't refrain from requesting or accepting my friendship because you're suspicious that I have some other intention. I'm really, truly, just here to meet cool people who want to share the music scene here. Nothing More Nothing Less. The only regrets I have about changing my account here to a band account is that people are less likely to find me. Oh well. I hope I've provided you with enough info to persuade you to join this community.
