My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Introspective people.

Music:

Talking Heads, The Band, Grateful Dead(sorry world), old Metallica...hell yes, those classical guys, Snake Oil Medicine Show, String Cheese Incident, Prince, Old Crow Medecine Show, Brownie McGee and Sonny Terry, Johnny Cash, Nat King Cole, Beatles, Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye, Django Reinhardt, Dianna Krall, Victor Wooten, Andres Segovia, John Williams, Larry Keel, Miles Davis, Did i say Grateful Dead already? Let me tell you what i dont like. Honky Tonk Country, most rap, bubblegum, Korn, Dave Matthews, Kiss, most punk, Matchbox 20, Santana, Van Halen, Ben Harper, John Mayer

Movies:

The Big Lebowski, Clockwork Orange, Nightmare Before Christmas, Any Dead Videos(if you dont know you never will), and Curb Your Enthusiasm when in my wildest dreams they ever make a movie like that. Im not the biggest movie buff on the face of the planet, however, i can say that generally, i like just about anything thats not Action or chick-flick-like. I dunno, i guess a few of them made me cry. Ray was pretty cool. Spinal Tap is of course a classic. Who's gonna make that amp go to 11 anyways? Sweet and Low Down. Unfortunately i do also like Almost Famous although its ridiculous. Oh yeh, Dazed and Confused. And i just thought id let anyone who likes the song Alice's Restaurant that hasnt watched the movie know that Alice's Restaurant "The Movie" is horrible. Sorry Arlo.

Television:

Adam Scaringi said it best when he said 'kill it'. However, the cartoon comedy things are good. And just about anything thatll make you smarter is alright even though its still better just to read about it.

Books:

The Culture of Narcissism- Christopher Lasch,Anatomy of Human Destructiveness-Erich Fromm, interpretation of Dreams- S. Freud, Anything Thomas Hardy, 1984-Orwell, The Unholy City Revisited, Any Mythology, Anything Alduous Huxley

Heroes:

Jerry G, Jesus, Morris Day, and Myself. Is being a fan of myself bad? I mean really. But yeh, Jesus and Morris day, i was joking about them. Kubrick, Beethoven, Liszt, Rheinhardt, Thomas Hardy...i try not to idolize too much, but there're some more i dont feel like listing right now.
