About Me

..This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor MySpace Profile Editor
I'm a 26 year old musician. I have long hair (soon to be short?) and I dont drink or smoke. I'm pretty soft spoken unless you can get me going. I'm pretty nerdy and I would rather read articles about science than a novel. Music is my passion and, although my musicianship is mediocre at best, it is still one of the most important things in my life. I mostly dig metal, but MANY other styles have found their way into my collection. I'm always willing to meet musicians of all sorts or other people to chat or trade music with. I also enjoy hiking and outdoors type of activities and hangin with my buds. So feel free to message me or send me an IM. My screen name is thelone7stringer on AIM and Yahoo.
