Anything involving music. Performing, writing, attending shows, political action groups, snowboarding, sailing, taking over other peoples stereos (yeah, I'm that guy) and Thai food.
All my heroes, my ancestors, anyone in a postition to make a positive change, and a bartender that pours heavy.
Jazz, Soul, Funk, Hip-Hop, Local, my friends, and anything with a solid rhythm section.
