About Me

My name is John-Paul Endoso. I'm 21, and I'm a singer/songwriter who lives in Alhambra,CA. I also play electric guitar, and just released my debut album, "Cold". I enjoy playing shows, skimboarding and surfing, rock climbing, and making people laugh. I graduated from the vocal program at the L.A. Music Academy in Pasadena, and am currently working there as a sound technician. Music is my passion, and I'm trying to make it my career.
I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6 !

My Interests

My interests are singing, songwriting, performing, playing guitar, surfing, skimboarding, rock climbing, watching movies, and just being a jackass with my friends.

I'd like to meet:

I'd like to meet people who want to come see my band's gigs. Interesting people, who can engage me in stimulating conversation, as well as in fisticuffs.

Music:

My two favorite bands have always been Metallica and Green Day, but I also like The RX Bandits, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Guns 'n' Roses, AC/DC, Incubus, The Used, Ozzy Osbourne, AM Radio, Switchfoot, Jet, Chevelle, My Chemical Romance, Audioslave, Rage Against the Machine etc...if I named all the bands I like, it would take up the whole page. Basically, I like rock, typically the harder stuff, but I listen to all genres of music. The bottom line is: a good song is a good song, no matter what style or country it's from. Music is the universal language, and it is definitely the framework of my life.

Confidential, Hostage, Fight Club, Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Full Metal Jacket, Mystic River, Almost Famous, The Transporter, A Time to Kill, The 25th Hour, Lord of the Rings, American Outlaws, Young Guns, Silverado, Snatch, Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Willow...

Television:

Family Guy, Chappelle's Show, Entourage...I don't really watch that much TV anymore.

Books:

Fight Club, Lullaby, Diary, Choke, Survivor, Invisible Monsters(Chuck Palahniuk is the man!), Sideways, The Ice Beneath You, The Lord of the Rings, The Iliad, The Odyssey, Macbeth, Much Ado About Nothing, L.A. Confidential, Tarzan of the Apes, Johnny Got His Gun, The Things They Carried, All Quiet on the Western Front, The Outsiders, That was Then; This is Now, Rumble Fish...
