i'm livid.

About Me

i play lots of bass for wheatus , mc lars , cZarina , the ventura project , and pretty much anyone else who asks. i also play guitar, piano, percussion, ukulele, and accordion. i started playing the banjo and now i need to go buy one... and i'll learn anything else i can get my hands on. i write and record my own music in my free time, and i'm starting to take it more seriously. you can check that out here . i think the nintendo wii is great, i am trying to read more often, and i listen to really embarrassing and really pretentious music equally often. i go to college online in my free time and i'm very sensitive about it. i'm having a hard time beating Lou on the hard mode of guitar hero 3. i like slurpees and taco bell and used cd's and concerts. and i look forward to the day that all guitars are replaced by ukuleles. because it's coming.

Good music still exists. Trust me.

Last night, Glen Hansard and Market Irglova won an effing OSCAR. It wasn't just a victory for Glen and Marketa (who deserve it so much more than most people making music nowadays)... it fel...
