Sometimes it is the artist's task to find out how much music you can still make with what you have l

About Me

I LOVE THE MAYFLIES!!! THEMAYFLIES.COM , check out the band!!! The Mayflies!

Personally, I am just a guy who, like you, is in search of persuits that would make my life ideal. Music and growth and TRUE altruism mean alot to me. Though I feel I am patiently working toward REALISTIC goals that would bring the most out of what I have in order to better GIVE to others. Have banjo & passport -- WILL TRAVEL!

My Interests

Water,or anything WET, discovering the facets of beauty in all of us, movement (dance), art of all mediums, Things that spark all 5 senses.

I'd like to meet:

If you are real, and think your life is even a blush of the life artistic then come let's drink in this thing we call LIFE. Or just share a cup of coffee (I'll bring the chocolate!!!) and chat about your goals and dreams of where you would love to see yourself at the top of your game!note* If you could do me a HUGE favor. Since there are ALOT of people visiting- Try your best to keep the comments to a "PG" rating- there are many people of different ages dropping by and I just want this to be enjoyed by everyone without offending. If you are under 18 PLEASE ask your parents if it is ok to add me. If they say no- then so do I. Sorry but those rules your parents make are the rules I would be happy to respect as well.

Those that LOVE me (Or leave an illusion they pretend to care---LOL)!
I have One Heck of a LOT friends.

Music:

My musical tastes are really vast. To put walls around a classification of music would do injustice to many artists that think outside the box.If you have a certain STYLE ya think I would like, then turn me on to it.
