About Me

D.I.Y After saving up my babysitting money for years, on January 13th, 2003, I strolled into a pawn shop and bought my first guitar. A rip off of the typical Fender Strat, I purchased a Johnson and further gave it the name, Jimmy Johnson. I shredded that bitch night after night, lightning bolts shooting from the tips of my fingers, glorifying the metal gods. After several failed attempts of being accepted by the testosterone driven bands due to my tits, and having a vagina, I picked up an acoustic guitar, threw a song together and played at a local open mic. Turns out people liked it, so I made more songs, and the people and I are still getting our kicks from it. Someday I would like to get accepted as a musician and be in a real live band. I'm glad I played that one faithful night, and I'll never look back. Thanks for listening.HERE YOU GO!
