Writing, playing, recording, producing, dreaming up music. Collecting weird-ass obscure prog and jazz records from the seventies Listening to any recorded material backwards, I hate (and i do mean ABSOLUTELY hate) stupid and irresponsible people. I like cool laidback people that can have fun, as well as very concious people who notice that all is not flowers and happiness. Trainspotting. Having fun with friends over a couple of beers. Occult studies, philosophy, reading.
