About Me

My name is Mike Lesmeister. I am twenty-three years old. I live in the SW side of Rochester, MN. I believe in taking care of myself, in a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the icepack, I use a deep pore-cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water-activated gel cleanser, then a honey-almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb mint facial masque which I leave on for ten minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after-shave lotion with little or no alcohol because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm, followed by a final moisturizing "protective" lotion. There is an idea of a Mike Lesmeister, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there.Mike Lesmeister - 23 years old - Rochester MN Mike Lesmeister= Drums, guitar, bass, keys and vocals, all recorded in his basment using protools (which he's still doesn't know how to use) no limitations and no specific genre, just music.
