Doing stand up comedy, music, sports, meeting new people, finding the truth!
Mitch Hedberg
This will take a while because I'm specific and picky about the music I like so I'll probably leave a bunch out. I like old school Dream Theater, Candiria, Symphony X,Jamaroquoi, old Herbie Hancock, old Coltrane(pre-heroine), Killswitch Engage, Satriani, Meshuggah, Vai, Tool, Rush, Zepplin, Snot, Liquid Tension Experiment, Derek Sherinian, Planet X, Jordan Rudess, G3, Yngwie Malmsteen, Tom Coster, Vinnie Jones, Dragonforce, a couple of Mastadon songs, John Petrucci, Billy Sheehan, Tony Levin, Steve Smith, Vital Information, Atmosphere, Sage Francis, Eydea and Abilities, Aesop Rock, Jared Paul, Remo Conscious, Immortal Technique, House of Pain's second album, Del, Tim Yeung, old Souls of Mischief, Pharcyde, Das Efx, Public Enemy, Beastie Boys, Run DMC, Sugar Hill Gang, and Black Sheep, a handful of songs by Shadows Fall, Lamb of God, All That Remains, Assemble the Remains, and Avenged Sevenfold, old Slayer, Dimebag Darrel, some of Mike Patten, Sole, Michael Romeo, Michael Pinnella, and more and I know I'm missing a ton of bassists that I can't think of. I believe that John Petrucci and Steve Vai are the greatest guitarists ever. I believe that Kenneth Schalk, Derek Sherinian, and Jordan Rudess are all freaks of nature. I believe that Maynard is the only singer in the world that makes me listen to a singer first and then listen to the music. I believe that Vinnie Jones and Michael Romeo are the two most underrated guitarists in the world. Disclaimer: I don't like most of the bands or musicians that are my "friends." And of course there is no one better than the hoff:
Requiem for a Dream, Memento, The Big Lebowski, Usual Suspects, Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, Fight Club, Goodfellas, A Bronx Tale, Crash, 21 Grams, Mystic River, Dumb and Dumber, Me, Myself, and Irene, Snatch, Pulp Fiction, I'll fill in more later.
Similar to music, I'm such a douche with TV. I believe that Arrested Developmentis by far the greatest show ever. Family Guy, Weeds, Brotherhood, 30 Rock, Rescue Me, and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia are second. .. .. ..
My book damnit!, A Scanner Darkly, Omerta, Davinci Code, Angels and Demons, Once again I'm a picky bitch so there's not too many books that I truly believe are good.
My Father and definitely not larry the cable guy. Here's some top notch fakeness by him. Love the khaki's...
