About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4I play in SPECTRE. If you haven't heard of us, you will soon. I currently play bass. However, I've been a drummer since I was 10, and a guitar player since I was 15. I'm currently a bass player now. I also take a lot of pictures. You can check'em out here http://www.flickr.com/photos/carlbock/ I was born and raised in the DC area, although a good amount of my childhood was spent in Texas, enough to allow me to claim duel citizenship. However, you can find me wandering the streets of Los Angeles, California now. But enough about me, how about you?

You certainly can glam it up when you need to.
