The list is neverending... Music, movies, singing/playing my guitar 6 hours a day, pool (Hustler), poker, comedy (Dane Cook, Gary Gulman, Robert Kelly, Nick Swardson, Mitch Hedburg, Brian Regan to name a few), friends, family, parties, hiking (really any adventure activity... kayaking), going places (what some might call traveling), tennis, basketball, frisbee (H-town championship team), sports in general, games (board and video), cars (racing mine), John Jameson, Jose Cuervo, Vladimir, things that really challenge my mind (I have dork qualities), and pretty much anything else you can think of... I'm open to just about everything. Try me.
I'd like to meet:
I've already met her.
Music:
Music is a huge part of my life... There's no real genre I don't like for one reason or another but blues and 60s and 70s rock is definitely at the top of my list. My favorites include: Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Rolling Stones, Buddy Guy, B.B. King, Robert Johnson, Skip James, T-Bone Walker (mostly every blues artist ever), Andres Segovia, The Beatles, Blues Traveler, James Taylor, Livingston Taylor, Poco, Robert Cray, Traffic, The Yardbirds, , Jackson Browne, Eric Johnson, Jeff Beck, Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Mark Knopfler, Phish, Dylan, GNR, Hendrix, Clapton, Neil Young, Stevie Ray Vaughan (my guitar idol), Pink Floyd, The Who, CSN, The Eagles, Tom Petty, The Byrds, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers Band, AC/DC, Simon and Garfunkel, ... and the list goes on. But what I listen to really depends on the mood I'm in... I listen to anything from Bach to St. Lunatics and everything in between. And if you appreciate vocal performance at its finest, check out Rockapella. The only non-instrument music i will listen to.
Movies:
Movies are up there with music. I've liked most of those I've seen and have seen a lot. Some of my favorites are: A Few Good Men, Men of Honor, Saving Private Ryan, Good Will Hunting, The Bourne Movies, A Beautiful Mind, Rounders, Apollo 13, Pushing Tin, Vanilla Sky, Reservoir Dogs, Fight Club, Top Gun, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Independence Day, LOTR, Waking Life, The Graduate, Apocalypse Now, Platoon, A Clockwork Orange, Pulp Fiction, Mr. Holland's Opus, The Birdcage, Silence of the Lambs, Woody Allen movies, Tom Hanks movies, Jack Nicholson movies, Johnny Depp movies, Disney Movies... I could go on all day.
Television:
"Television is for losers" ~ The Dalai Lama. Seinfeld, Friends, ATHF, Family Guy, Pimp My Ride, or whatever people want to watch... I don't give a damn!
Books:
I don't read as often as I should, but there are a few I really like... LOTR, The Great Gatsby, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, The Hitchhiker's Guide series (all Douglas Adams stuff), Supremely Satisfying Bathroom Reader (seriously... it is satisfying), and Robert Ludlum stuff whenever I get the chance to read it... OH! How could I forget?! Also Ni**er Stain, Ni**er Book, and I Smell Ni**er... Gotta love Dave Chapelle!
Heroes:
My dad... for losing 30 years of his life in 2 ended marriages (those women must have been crazy... no offense momma) and still being one of the most fun guys I've ever met and the best dad any son could ask for. Stevie Ray Vaughan... guitar god! My sister... and my best buddy! Hmmm... and... Lance Armstrong... yeah... that guy's awesome! Oh right... and anybody that finished the AT.
