I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I am the singer of a successful band in Cali. We do covers and do it well. We've won awards (2004 & 2007 & 2008 ModestoBee ReadersCHoice Poll Favorite Local Band) and been nominated for a MAMA-Best Blue Collar band (2004 and this year '08). We've been on the news (about 15 times now) and we were recognized in print (Better To Reign In Hell-Life Inside the Raiders Fan Empire...) it's a book about the Raiders Tailgate scene (where we've played for the Black Hole the last 6 seasons)and it's available at Amazon.We've played for Motorcycle Clubs/ Grand openings of Harley Dealerships/On overnight camp-outs/ Travelled up to Reno, NV a couple times to play for the close of Street Vibrations,and the IRON NATION 9/11 Never Forget Run (2x) NorCal for the BEER BELLY BASH. Birthdays for friends/kids, wedding receptions, Fund Raisers..as well as our regular Bar/club gigs Around the SF Bay Area and Central Valley, Santa Cruz.-we've done it all at one time or another. I do everything in the band except play the other instruments-Booking/merchandise/flyers/art/web content,etc. My bro's & I are tight; we've played alot of shows the past 10 years and have some of the best fans we could ask for.We've partied with the Budweiser girls, Awesome Orange Girls, Jeagermeister girls, CaboWabo Tequila Girls to name a few. I have done radio interviews on the local sports station and we've had some radio commercials done wich promoted our show. Hosted Rock night with Rock 96.7 3x (I think it was still 95ROCK)..we get around! You can find out more at www.slackenloader.com such as our set list, pictures and upcoming shows. It is under a bit of construction so check back often.I am also a Promoter of live music shows. I started doing it as another way to be involved in the music scene, network with fellow musicians and help create a better evening of entertainment for everyone. I saw many shows in my life, where with just a bit more organization and planning, could have been much better. I'm here to meet peeps and girls.Maybe network a bit, pick-up a gig here or there.And to find models for our gear. I think I can be described best as a "Retrosexual". Kinda of a Jack Black sorta guy. You'll see the term in pop culture, just watch for it. I like people who are opinionated but they have to be informed also. Know the history and the different versions of it. Everyone has a story and experiences that help them form their outlook & philosophy of life..but to be 19 or 20 & think you have it all figured out? PLEASE!

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Jerry Cantrell,Mike Patton,Seth McFarlane,Johnny Depp,Patton Oswalt,Don & Mike,Trey Parker/Matt Stone,Dane Cook,Pablo Francisco, Steven Lynch,Ryan Reynolds, Ben Stiller, Keira Knightley, Natalie Portman, Amy Smart,Sara Polley, Luke & Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, Jennifer Aniston, Alicia Silverstone,Tommy Lee,Nikki Sixx,Phil Anselmo,Jon Stewart, Steven Colbert, Rob Corddry, Seth Green, Dave Chappelle, Kevin Smith, Jason Muse, Wayne Static, Jon Cho & Kal Penn,Kristina Cavalari, David Spade, Charlie Murphy, Jennifer Love Hewitt,Rob&Shari Zombie, Emily Katerina Campbell, or someone who has something interesting to say and makes me think such as Mary Magdalan or MarylinManson; people who are flamboyant, deep sometimes dark and artistic who the masses glom onto but rarley fully understand...and it should be that way to an extent, without mystery life is boring. Nothing makes you wonder if you know it all. Everyone has a story. I find many of them mundane and common. It's what you choose to highlight and expound upon that makes the story interesting to the listener and reader. One may say that many of the names I listed are kinda cheesey or mainstream, but you don't know what I would ask them if I met them now do you? I didn't say I worship them or think they're the 'Be-All, End-All' or that I wanted an autograph or would go all Ga-Ga over them. Some of them I just want to hang with and shoot the shit about sports or politics over a couple beers. Some I'd want to spend a weekend with talking about their beliefs and experiences. Some I'd want to know how they deal with their degree of stardom and how it ebbs & flows in their careers and lives. A couple I would probably ask painful questions of, if given the chance, to better understand them and myself in a life lesson session sorta way. I'd want to ask what inspires them, what did they draw on for strength or ideas for a song or joke or movie character. There are so many people that inspire & entertain me. But most of all, a really neat chic who's cute & spunky and confident & funny...like Aubry Fisher or a girl with that cali look like Jodie Sweetin or Emily Proctor. But right now...I think I have a new fave friend here. I think she knows who she is and I don't want to embarrass her but she RAWKS! Horns up sweetie! We MUST party, hang & talk soon. Of course, I want to meet someone who loves me for all my flaws and embraces my goodness and would defend me to the death, as I would her.But I also wish I could "un-meet" some people too. Ya know, the ones that never got their lives on track, who fell hardcore into drug addiction, still think they're fooling everyone but you know they are hardcore on the Tweak. The see you and are "hey Dog, what up? got any shit?" and all I can think is dude WTF happened to yer teeth, and your hair and what is that smell? And why are you riding a kids BMX bike and yer fingers look like you've been burrowing in black dirt! Don't tell me "it's a disease"...I was there too. It's a choice and a weakness of character & self respect-NOT a disease. Diabetes is a disease, Leukemia is a disease-you don't just wake up 1 day and go "oh my god, I can't live without smoking a crackrock"...it may be a slow slip, but it started with an original choice and then a sacrificing of personal standards & morals & pride as it progressed, but it was always a choice 1st.
