Hi guyths!

About Me

My name is Jeff. I now live in Norman for a few more months, until I head to Brazil. I am majoring in spanish, and it's swell. I still like music. I don't drive a minivan anymore with a bed in the back of it, it died this summer in east Texas. I still like to eat alot of food and drink water! The only thing that has changed is that now I am in Norman, and that I now enjoy things like making toy boats for my friends to play with. Thank You. I recently made a CD with some friends. We call it the Jivin' Jungle Jamboree! Here's some clips! Best to listen with good headphones or surround sound while eating a turkey sandwich.
Rumba De Palo Santos
Ga Ga
Bones Groove

My Interests

Playing drums from Cuba, Brazil, Congo, Haiti, and West Africa. Playing music with really strange people. Dancing as much as possible. Rapping. Singer songwriters. Movies. Doing really strange things in general, because it makes me feel better about my life. Singing. Laughing. Yoga. Opening up. Love. The mind. Communicating. Being outside. Being honest. Spanish. Traveling. Ultimate Frisbee. Soccer. Doing things that keep me out of myself. Otherwise my head starts telling me some pretty fucked up things.
