Music. Listening to it, playing it, living my life by it. I play the violin, pretty much any style you can think of. I also dabble with my bass guitar some, but I've played violin since I was five, so, you do the math. Oh yeah, movies are pretty friggin awesome too. Beer, chicks, dive bars (not clubs), pool, darts, video games, 67-69 Chevy Camaro SS (it will be mine one day), and uh, shit man lotsa stuff. I'm into everything.
I'd like to meet:
Chicks, musicians, artists, people that move to the beat of a drum being played by an acid-tripping, poo-flinging monkey. If you have an old school camaro that you want help restoring, feel free to ask me for help. Oh yeah and maybe this guy too:
