About Me

Actually... I'm Steven. But that's enough of that. I love music. Plain and simple is what the last statement was. But I don't just say it and listen to goth emo punk or whatever. That's stupid. It's more than that to me; I love to look back at musically historical points and break them down.
I play percussion, however... I am 17. This for many others is fine, but my parents don't buy me anything. I've had to basically get my whole drumset up myself. They bought an original shell kit, and I've since built on. I'm not one of those rich kids either; you know, the ones that buy the five-thousand dollar equipment like it was nothing. Hopefully after next year I'll have my studio set up and my drumkit ready to record though.
I also like to read philosophy and break it down. Or if not philosophy, just great writings in general. I despise novels though. Maybe graphic novels(which are really just long comics.), but none of the others. If I want a story to read, I'll live it first. I like philosophy though because it's interesting to watch progression from BC to the late 1700's.
I also like to chill out with my friends, however, seeing as I only have two that are ever bored enough to hang out with... that usually doesn't happen. Hopefully we all get extremely bored next year with the blatantly simple work. I'll write more when I have something to say. My AIM SN is MagusVandel or CrownPioneer

My left big toe I like almost every type of music. I, however, dislike bubble-pop or whatever MTV is playing these days. I don't like the new rap that doesn't have any meaning(This includes new eminem and dre, unfortunately). I don't personally like country(mainly the red neck stuff), but some good songs are out there and I'll credit that. I completely loathe The Locust and grind music in general. Any music that purposely sucks should not be accepted or congradulated.(Though I will say A.C.'s lyrics are hilarious in a morbid way.)

I'd like to meet:

Someone interesting who's not completely sucked into the MTV fads. Someone who's not into MTV fades, but also not a lamer who dresses in black all the time, pretending they are original. Carter Beauford, Tom Float, Rob Bourdon, Travis Barker, Chris Hughes(again), Tommy Lee(so I could ask him how he did it, and then kick him. Hard.), Neil Peart, Max Weinberg, other drummers I forgot to mention.
