About Me

A man from brooklyn moved to Los Angeles and married a woman there. They had two kids. The first was a ten pound girl. The next was a crazy boy who kept trying to kill himself by swallowing other peoples pills, electricuting himself, hanging himself, and various other things that little boys do. Then when the boy turned 11 the family moved to Flagstaff, AZ so the man could start an auto part buisness. Now the boy had no friends and the people of Flagstaff were very mean. Probably because they grew up in miserable cold weather and had small sex organs. So out of bordom the boy decided to set up his dads drums and become a drummer. He still didn't have any friends but at least he had some sort of identity. After this the boy starting making friends with other musicians and non-athletic types with large brains who weren't insecure about the size of their reproductive organs. When the boy went to high school he soon fell in love with a girl. After a year of pursuing this devil woman she started turning into an angel and falling in love with the boy. When the boy got older he decided to be a music major in college. When he started college he soon realized that the music program was full of people who knew nothing about killer drum grooving and how to rock out. So the boy dropped his major and soon after that dropped out of school to move back to California to be with his woman and rock out with all of the real musicians. It worked out very well for him. He married his dream girl and plays music everyday whiling holding his own in the Los Angeles indie rock scene since december of 2003. http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=kristingal I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4body{ background-color:rgb(204,102,0); } a I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
