Eat... Drink... Rock...

About Me

Music, music, music..... If there is anything that gets my heart pumping, and makes me shine, it is being on stage, and playing the music that I am a part of creating. I was born and raised in a very small town, yet unlike some others, I have a very open mind when it comes just about everything. I know who I am, and I'm proud damn it! People's first impression of me is usually not a good one, but I assure you, I have a soft, white underbelly. Don't let the tattoos and piercings fool you..... I don't use any drugs, but I do drink from time to time. I am a guitar fanatic, some may say I am a guitar dork/geek/prodigy :) I use my guitar dorkness in the Minneapolis based band aEstyria.

My Interests

GEE-tar. Music. Meeting new peeps! I have found a new love for bowling! I'll just throw it on my huge list of things I love to do that I suck at... bowling, golfing, tattooing, drumming, sleeping...

I'd like to meet:

Guitar/music lovers, and the regular party people. Also, the people that came up with the "Real men of genius" comercials... Brilliant.

Music:

This list could go on and on..... I'll just name a few. Soilwork, Sevendust, Iron Maiden, Avenged Sevenfold, Pantera, Lamb of God, In Flames, Killswitch Engage, All That Remains, Trivium, Alice in Chains, Tool, A Perfect Circle, Faith No More, Stone Temple Pilots, Deftones, Megadeth, and so on..... Locally? Hmm..... Staija(rip). Revelence(rip). 3Pill Morning. My boys in Vain. My girls in Rivkit. Maitiera. The Amanda Nelson Experience. Pillowfist. And of course.....

Movies:

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Usual Suspects. Friday the 13th. Any B-rated Horror Film. Poolhall Junkies. Lucky # Sleven. Audition (probably the most terrifying film ever). The Godfather. The "Thumb" movies! Spinal Tap. Wayne's World. Blah, blah, blah. Chick flicks make me cry ;) I love Vince Vaughn, Christopher Walken, and anything from Nicholas Cage.

Television:

I have recently been de-comcasted... No tv for this guy.

Books:

I don't do books, unless something in a soft-cover with pictures of guitars, or boobs on the front is considered a book :)

Heroes:

Iron Maiden, John Petrucci, Amanda, and my father.....

My Blog

What lies beneath...

There are alot of things in life that are taken for granted. Alot of things go unseen, and others unspoken. Why does the obvious get ignored? Why do some things shout, and others whisper? Why do we no...

Random/Odd/Stupid things...

We all do a few things that are fairly odd... I thought it might be fun to share a few of those things. The way I see it, if you're ashamed of some of the things that you do, you probably shouldn't d...

Shit!...

My entire upper right arm feels like raw meat... New tattoos are cool aside from the feeling of cat-scratched sunburn.  Someday I'll buy a digital camera so I can put up pics, inst...

R.I.P. Darrell "Dimebag" Abbott

I don't need to remind people what happened, instead, remember who he was, and what he means to all of us. Personally, I cried when I heard the news that day, and again when I saw the "Behind the Musi...

Learning disability.

When I was about 11 or so I decided I wanted to learn how to play an instrument. My parents have an issue with anything louder than 25db, so drums were out. So, originally I kinda wanted to play bass,...
