About Me

I am a 21 year old aspiring musician. I play bass and try to write music, sometimes with success. When I am not working I play and listen to music and write, with music, stories or sometimes, though rarely, I will try my hand at poetry. Used to be horrible in social situations, getting better with that though. Love music.

My Interests

Music, both playing and listening. Writing, reading, computer/video games are fun too. I enjoy cooking, some of the best times had are around the table.

I'd like to meet:

People with similar intrests, people interested in jamming perhaps. People in general.

Music:

I play bass guitar and trumpet as well (havent played in a few years, but I can still do it) Listening however, I am really into the local music scene; the New Pornographers, the Organ, AC Newman, stuff like that. I tend to favour Canadian content over others. Bands like Death from Above 1979, Wolf Parade, Arcade Fire, Death Cab for Cutie are among my favourites. Love most anything by Led Zepplin, Meat Loaf or Metallica, older Collective Soul, the Doors are great and so are the Rolling Stones.Come to think of it, I like pretty much all music, can find some good in it

Movies:

Dont really have time to watch too many, but I like the classics, Spaceballs, Airplane, Top Gun, LotR 1-3....stuff like that

Books:

Pretty much anything I can get my hands on, from Fantasy to old spy novels to murder mysteries....

Wow, just wow.  Spent what could possibly have been the best 4 hours of my life with about 4000 other people at the Arcade Fire concert last night.  It was just fucking amazing.  The tw...
