My Interests

Music, and then probably music.

..

I'd like to meet:



Music:

We are here to cover anything that fits inside the moniker of "hard rock," be it melodic rock or even death metal. If you are a band looking for some press, let us know. If you are a label promoting a band, let us know. We look forward to bringing your music to the masses. Contact me at this site or at this e-mail address .
Check out the brand new Mark Lanoue/Biloxi interview now!

Books:

Harlan Ellison rules the roost, as does Joe Landsdale. All others, please eat dirt. Except Ray Garton, of course ... and David J. Schow. Well, and F. Paul Wilson. Who doesn't know who "Repairman Jack" is? OK, for nonfiction (sorta), Chuck Klosterman doesn't suck.

Heroes:

Anyone who lives by this mantra: Life is too short for sobriety.
