My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Good question. Maybe you....Maybe...

DISCLAIMER: I'm not here to help you in a popularity contest. So all you friend collectors out there can just blow. I know danm near everybody on my "friends" list, and the people I've never met in person have at least been real enough to have something to say to me. And that goes for bands as well. You can see what I dig. I detest modern video/radio rock and do not need to hear another awful, soulless band rehash crap that was terrible when it was came out 10, let alone 6 years ago. You people can take off too.
