...but those lies were disguised by those eyes that I adored...

About Me

The poster boy for odd, bizarre, cracked. My name is Chris, but you probably already know that. I've been playing music since I was twelve and it's always been going strong. What instruments do I play? Well, I play bass for a pop punk band called but I also do lots of guitar writing and much drum playing. I also learnt how to play the Oboe and the trombone back in high school and if I actually owned those two instruments, I'm sure I'd still be playing them. I love to talk, but hate being on the phone (Go figure). I'm open-minded and am rarely not up for anything.

My Interests

Music is my prime interest. Maybe Next Year , I love microsoft paint playing, really, I do. Click on the image to see what my pride and joy of mspaint looks like. I also love poker, I play on Pokerstars.net out of some randomness. Find me, it's free. Me name's LMNOpee. As for everything else, well, I can't say I don't enjoy pretty much anything, so we'll stick to that.

I'd like to meet:

"I love that my fans are the coolest and smartest out there, just as I thought you all understood my message...that if you are open to have a meaningful life and if you are ready to do something positive ...then I will give you the soundtrack, and together, maybe we can change the world, if not just ourselves." - Tom DeLonge
