About Me


Myspace Cursors
Myspace Contact TablesI'm Irish/Scottish/English, a singer/songwriter and have always been a big 50's fan. So far I have 6 tattoos and a couple piercings. I was teaching music for 3 years until I started a new career path recently as the project coordinator for a high-end home remodeling management/design firm based out of Old Town Warrenton. I formally ran Signal Theory Studios and worked as a producer/engineer for Legal Sound Productions based out of Nokesville, Va. Both studios are currently no longer in operation but I'm still focusing on my own material as well as producing. Check out Street Legal and Johnny 3 Legs albums once they're released. I'm quite proud of the work we did on those albums. I'm pretty laid back for the most part but am very much a typical pisces. I have a wide variety of friends and get along with most anyone. I'm at a point in my life where 30 is quickly approaching (something my family loves to give me a hard time about) and it would be nice to have someone special in my life but I'm old enough to know you can't go looking for it... it tends to find you.

My Interests

Stories told about people's lives through music, poetry, and art (Dali is a great example of this). I'd like to learn how to play the piano better. I'm just getting started and not doing too bad actually. Music theory back in school helped. Songwriting usually takes up a large part of my free time when I get it. Open minded people who can agree to disagree. I also love cooking. I'm a huge fan of tattoos, have several of my own, and I enjoy the outdoors, late night drives, anything 50's, milk and orange juice!

I'd like to meet:

Cool people. I'd like to meet people that have a love for music, especially Rockabilly/Psychobilly, 80's rock like the Cult and GNR (not poison or whitesnake), and some industrial. If you can hold a good conversation and have a general idea what's going on in the world around you, I'd be happy to talk with you. Had to add one more thing I don't want... if you want to add me as a friend so I can view your free sexy webcam... don't try to add me. It's just not my bag baby.

Music:

Mike Ness, Rocket 350, Reverend Horton Heat, Depeche Mode, Elvis, Social Distortion, Johnny Cash, Misfits, Tiger Army, Duran Duran, Cracker, The Cult, The Cure, David Bowie, Stray Cats, Billy Idol, Dead Milkmen, KMFDM, , Zeromancer, Tori Amos, Thrill Kill, Emmett Swimming, Bob Dylan, Counting Crows, Radiohead, Bruce Springsteen, Trashcan Sinatras, James, Fugazi, Billie Holliday, Rammstein, Muse, VNV, INXS, old U2, old REM, Evanescence, Tool, Travis, Bleed, Minor Threat, Apop, Donovan, Elton John, Billy Joel, New Order, E. Nominae, and me...I rock beeachh!!

Movies:

Top Gun, the Crow, Labyrinth, Eurotrip, the Blade and Matrix series, and midget porn with especially horrible actors. For any prudes out there shaking their heads, you should watch one, it's fu**ing hilarious!!!

Television:

I'm a crime/drama nut! CSI, Law & Order, L&O svu, etc. I like comedies, especially "stupid funny" and Brittish. I watch boring stuff like the News but it helps keep me informed, and when I happen to catch MTV actually playing a rock video, although about as rare as a Bigfoot sighting, I'll sit and watch that too. Who knows, the way things are going it just might be the last last rock video I see! Anyone feeling me on that one? Can you feel my pain?

Books:

Just about anything from Jack Kerouack, Alan Ginsberg, and William S. Burroughs...that crazy mother f***er!!

Heroes:

My stepbrother Mike (1965-1994)
