I am here for Friends

About Me

I am currently playing with Tiger Saw . I'm really excited about that! We're recording a new album soon! I used to be in two other bands ( International Pen Pal and jill/jennifer sound ),but both have now broken up. I'm considering a solo project soon - looking for electronic drums and keys, possibly a theremin.
I do a really depressing comic , and i make jewelry .
for work, I am a web developer .

My Interests

pop, electronic music, vintage synths, decorating, cats, horror, silversmithing, yoga.

I'd like to meet:

a gypsy with a wooden leg and a heart of gold.

Music:

ska, TMBG, Lucky Madison Records, Magnetic Fields, Peter Gabriel, Techno/electronica/triphop... see my top 24 for a few of my favorite bands on myspace. I currently play with Tiger Saw, and have also performed with International Pen Pal, the jill/jennifer sound, Andrea Gillis, Rob Cushing, the KNOWMovement Orchestra (original silent film scores) and others.

Movies:

Anything with Bruce Campbell. Almost anything with Nick Cage. Horror (the bloodier, the better), foreign (esp Jeunet), indie, and stupid, stupid comedy. I watch about 4 movies a week, on average. There's enough drama in my life, i don't need to watch movies about it...

Television:

Simpsons, Arrested Development, House, Adult Swim (with the following exceptions: Assy McGhee, Minoriteam, Squidbillies, and 12 oz mouse - those suck and should be taken off the air and replaced with BRAK).

Books:

geek love, tao te ching, graphic novels, bradbury, vonnegut, house of leaves

Heroes:

Jacques Cousteau. And Ash, of course...
