About Me

I'm 29 years old, married to my lovely wife Shauna, and am the proud papa of Isabella Rose who was born on February 20th 2006. I have been into punk, ska, psychobilly, Hardcore, etc for over 15 years now. I'm here to check up on my friends and make some new ones into punk, horror movies or just anything cool. I am the interviewer and editor for Dead Boy Productions and have done interviews with the Quakes, Three Bad Jacks, Crimson Ghosts, Chop Tops, Mad Ramblers, The Kat Killers, Ghastly Ones, Zombie Ghost Train and many more. We constantly update the interviews and recently started doing a podcast where we play local and independent music so keep check the sites:WWW.DEADBOYPRO.COMwww.myspace.com/deadboypro
You're Jack! "I am the Pumpkin King!" and
yes you are. Although you have the fame and
fortune, you are not happy. You go and try to
find yourself but in cost of Christmas. In the
end everything is peachy keen and we still love
you.

My Interests


How evil are you?

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who understands what this scene is about.

Music:

Black Rose Phantoms(their new CD is gonna be killer), AFI, Mad Sin, Demented Are Go, Nekromantix, Misfits, Horrorpops, Bad Religion, Rise Against, Three Bad Jacks, Social Distortion, Cadillac Tramps, Quakes, Tiger Army, Rancid, M3t3ors, Agnostic Front, Roger Miret and the Disasters, TSOL, do I really need to keep going I think you get the point. Pretty much I can't stand the recycled garbage that passes for Top 40 and TRL crap.

Movies:

Star Wars, Bad Horror Movies (old black and white ones, not the ones that pass for bad horror movies these days), Nighmare Before Christmas, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Goodfellas, the Godfather, any Universal Horror movies. If it has Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, or Lon Chaney, Jr. you can bet I pretty much like it.

Television:

Heroes. That show is awesome. I can't stand MTV but how do you get away from it? I'm a Superman fan (been one since I was little so save your comments, so I watch Smallville) and since I like all the horror stuff Supernatural is the shit. Other than that whatever strikes my fancy which isn't much.

Books:

My brother finally got me to read those Harry Potter books and damnit they are good. Waiting on the seventh one now. Eragon and Eldest by Christopher Paolini,the Chronicles of Narnia (did you catch all of the religious parallels in it), love Anne Rice's vampire books and the Series of Unfortunate Events books. I'm a teacher I read a lot of children's literature, sometimes I think it is better than regular books. I also love to read alternative history books such as Lies My Teacher Told Me and People's History both books which you should read if you want to be truly educated and since I'm a Star Wars nut I read a lot of the novels that fit in the years between the six movies.

Heroes:

The two guys who live on the next street. All they do is hang around without shirts sitting on the planter between their two houses drinking beer!! Man, what a life!!! Seriously though, my dad, since you learn to be a man from a man!
