Truth is.

About Me

I currently live in Portland. Previously I lived elsewhere.While I enjoyed England, it seemed to rain all the time. Kinda like it does here, but colder. And wetter. Guess I'm used to it by now.In case you didn't notice, I'm attempting to become a guitarist. This is obviously something that takes a lifetime.For more random facts and inane information, please see my website: geocities.com/classicrambler66

My Interests

I am attempting to become a somewhat proficient in a number of musical styles...really, I don't want to be one of those 'musicians' who knows just enough about a genre to get themselves into trouble. While my main focus is the guitar, I have been known to fool around with the following: Bass (guitar), Mandolin, Tenor Banjo, Piano, Bul Bul, Violin, Lap Steel...hmmm...accordian...not neccesarily in that order though.While I think I'd like to 'boldly go where no music has gone before', chances are, I wouldn't like what it would end up sounding like...so I'll try to stay with reasonable convention...probably ending up "sounding like all those other bands who claim not to sound like anyone else."I currently play in church on Wednesdays and Sundays, and whenever else an opportunity presents itself.

I'd like to meet:

The unusual and sometimes bizzare? (Did I spell that right?) If so, (not if I spelled that right...but if you like those fancy chords) then I may well be interested in some of the things you are.

Music:

Django Reinhardt Sixpence None The RicherBeethovenGarmarnaDavid Lindleyand many more...not necessarily in that order either. lol

Movies:

Roman Holiday, Life is Beautiful

Television:

Kill your television.

Books:

Romans. Lord of the Rings. The Four Loves.
