About Me

I have an intense internal need to entertain myself, as opposed to being entertained by others. I'm obssesed w/ Music and sounds, silence included. I will listen to anything at least once... So Bands are quite welcome.

My Interests

Sounds, visions, the people and the machines that create them and are created by them.

I'd like to meet:

Folks who know that you can't love any genre as whole, be it people, music, films or whatever. I'm not being cynical, it's just that if you think about any group of anything, 80 or so percent of it sucks. So, I want to meet 20% of the people in the world, listen to 20% of it's music, watch 20% of it's films and so on. Just so you know, I haven't actually sat down and checked my math on this, in fact it's quite wrong ( outside of the original figure of 80% of course). So which 20%, how could I know? I don't. So I'll have to partake of everything I can until I figure it out. That written, I'd like to meet you... unless I don't.

-Update- Mr. Dave says it's more like 90%. He could be right.

Men... Not dancing, get off the floor. or Get your back on the wall.

What the hell is going on? I'm sure you've gone out to some club or whatever and seen some guy monsterously overchicked standing there while his lady dances like she's possessed by the holy spirit. No...
