About Me

As I start to write this I realize that if you don't know me, a generic description isn't going to do you much good. If you do know me, a generic description is pointless. Therefore, now that you've read all this, sorry for wasting your time.

My Interests

People, live music, camping, djembes, surfing, soccer, music festivals, activities that don't involve confinement by four walls, pong, stumbling around, my backyard and the parties that happen there.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who can help me appreciate new things I know little about.

Anyone with a good soul and an optimistic point of view.

Oh, and one day, a monkey and a penguin, not necessarily at the same time...

Music:

So many to list...

Dave Matthews, STS9, Karl Denson... and anyone he happens to be playing with, Dubconscious, Liquid Soul, Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, Bob Marley, Michael Franti, Widespread Panic, Grateful Dead, Yo Mama's Big Fat Booty Band, The Soular System, The Legendary JC's, Spam All-Stars, Miles Davis, Herbie Hancock, Dizzy Gillespie, Bela Fleck, Umphrey's McGee, I could go on forever...

Sound Tribe New Years... Definitely one of the craziest weekends in my life

Movies:



Really any movie that will make me think or laugh my ass off. Preferably both.

Books:

Hitchhiker's Guide, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, Singularity, Restaurant at the End of the Universe, pretty much anything by Kurt Vonnegut, ISHMAEL (read it, it's good for you), more to come...
