They mean everything to me.
511.4 miles, and I'm not stopping anytime soon. =]
"Your presence at shows and in our lives is good enough!".
- xo Matthew.
^^NOTHING makes me happier.
July 24th, 2008 will be EPIC.
-If I'm not at home, I'm probably at a show, or hanging with family. Nothing else really matters to me right now.
-I have too many acquaintances, and not enough friends.
-I'm incredibly quiet - don't take it the wrong way, please. I don't hate anyone. I'm too insecure about myself to talk to most people. I hope to change it someday, but as it's looking it could take a while. Stick around and try to talk to me. Or don't. I don't need anymore fake friends.
-I'll do pretty much anything to see one of my favorite bands live. This includes: paying $400 to go to Cleveland, OH, and have the time of my life. Even though that same band were coming here two days later, I don't regret it at all.
-Want to be my best friend? Come with me to Rochester on June 2nd to see Settings, June 27th to the Town Ballroom in Buffalo to see Powerspace, or June 28th to Toronto to see Mindless Self Indulgence. I'll love you forever, guaranteed.
This quote is extremely relative to my life.
" And it took me a long time to become myself. I wish I could have known that I didn't always have to hide myself. That myself was good enough. I wish I could have changed the times, all the times I walked around, thinking that there was something wrong with me....I wish I could have dealt with reality on reality's terms. I think I might have gotten more out of life had I just seen what was right there in front of me."
-Dee Dee Ramone
Stop what you're doing, and buy this. =]
"Purchasing it as soon as possible isn't an option, it's a duty to humanity and the future of music."

'Til death do we rock.

My Interests

Things I love: Family, music, Nathan, Matthew, Dan, Mateo, going to shows, bands that come to Buffalo, Xtreme Wheels, Club Infinity, The city of Buffalo, Settings, Powerspace, The A.K.A's, Family Force 5, Taking Back Sunday, when bands acknowledge/respect their fans, Red Bull/Red Bull slushies, Yoo-Hoo, Ramones, chapstick, road trips or traveling in general.

Things I hate: When people go to shows without wearing deodorant, people who don't wear deodorant ever, feet, incredibly immature people, bands that ignore Buffalo, cold weather.

I'd like to meet:

All these bands are from the Buffalo/Rochester/Syracuse area - I've seen/will see them all live, and I can promise you they are entirely way too amazing:

Heroes:

These bands, and the people in them, have my heart.
-Madina Lake:
Nathan: Thanks so much for the support, you're the best ever!
Matthew: You're presence at shows and in our lives is good enough.
Dan: Thanks! This is going on the merch table tonight!

I honestly can't explain to you how much these dorks mean to me. ♥♥♥
Powerspace:
Alec: Miss you too!
And when I wake up, I realize that everything's still wrong. I'm still here, and you're still gone. It's not fair, cause either way I spin it, seperation seems so wrong. These breaks are far too long for me.
I miss them so much. =<[br />
The A.K.A's:
Justin:
"WE LOVE YA! Can't wait to see you real soon!"
Settings:
"Hopefully you can attend! It's gonna be fun! Take care, and much love."
You have no idea, how happy/proud I am to say that this band is from BUFFALO.
Mindless Self Indulgence:
"Hope you can make it out to something soon! Thanks for the support!"
I can't wait to see them again. =<[br />
