About Me

"I am shamelessly self-involved
I spend hours in front of the mirror making my hair elegantly disheveled
I worry about how this album will sell
because I believe it will determine the amount of SEX I will have in the future
I'm proud of my life and the things that I have done
proud of myself and the loner I've become
You're free to whine, it will not get you far
I do just fine, my car and my guitar"
- Admit It!!! by Say Anything
ya, so those lyrics describe me almost perfectly.
Hi, I'm Yuval, and I think that if one morning everybody listens to Bob Marley, there will be world peace.
If you're reading this, you probably already know me. if not, then i encourage you to get to know me cuz i can be cool after i stop being shy. I'm a band geek and a Star Wars nerd, and I can often be seen quoting lines from my favorite songs or from Pulp Fiction. I also love Calvin & Hobbes and Mountain Dew.
I love music: listening to it, writing it, playing it, analyzing it, learning about it, and just about everything else. I play Bass Guitar, and also some Guitar, and a little bit of drums. I love Rock and all kinds of it, especially Progressive.
If you want to take Bass lessons or Guitar lessons from me, or know someone who does, then feel free to contact me. I am an experienced player and I charge very little.

My Interests

MUSIC: listening to it, making it, playing it, thinking of it, analyzing it, and everything else about it; video games (i'm a nerd ;-)), hiking/mountain climbing, bike-riding (especially along Venice Beach), drinking mass quantities of Mountain Dew, chillin with friends

I'd like to meet:

Hmmmm, who would I like to meet? I'd like to meet... Steve Vai. Maynard James Keenan. Frank Zappa (but he's dead). My long-lost brother. The guy who used to do the disembodied voice on X-play. Oh ya, and a guy who drives an accordion for a living. (An "accordion", for those who don't know, is that nifty thing at airports that connects the terminal to the plane, and u walk through it to get on the plane. Obviously, these need to be driven to connect to the planes, and when u walk in them you can actually see the buttons and switches that control it at the very end of it.)

Music:

I like rock and almost all subgenres of rock (except Death Metal). I also like Funk, Reggae, Ska, Blues, Jazz, and others. The only kind of rap and hip-hop i like is Israeli hip-hop, or if it's rock-rap like RATM or Chronic Future.

Here is a list of my 15 favorite bands:

1. Pink Floyd
2. Red Hot Chili Peppers
3. Dream Theater
4. Tool
5. A Perfect Circle
6. R.E.M.
7. King Crimson
8. Steely Dan
9. Muse
