About Me

Music is life. It lifts you up. It makes you smile. It gives you chills. It is my life, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I guess I'm not your average Joe. Rock and Roll was fed to me as a baby. My parents are the coolest people on Earth. I'm not into flashiness and B.M.W.'s. I prefer real people, as opposed to the materialites that put themselves above others. There is more to life than your looks, or a fucking car for christ's sake. Stay away from your television. The most beautiful things in life are miles from your T.V. As for politics, my views changed dramatically after serving as a paratrooper in the Army. I don't think young people should die for some arrogant old white men who have never spent one day in the shoes of a soldier. Dick Cheney proved that when he shot his buddy in the face! Those guys wouldn't last a minute in the shit. As for women, I love them. As long as they have a good head on their shoulders. The dating scene is like wading your way through psychos and gold diggers. Then occasionally you totally click with someone. Can't complain though, life is good. I'm doing what I love for a living. To me that's the key. If you don't have dreams and aspirations, then I don't want anything to do with you. You can't just sit idle. Life only comes once. Take control, don't be another rat in the race!!
