About Me

Yes, I'm aware that my 'space' lacks Pimpery... I kick it oldskool... or I'm possibly too busy... or I'm quite possibly too lazy... Pick one ;)
Got one thing I love and do... I'm one of the five members of Methodology, a fun Soul/Funk/Rock/Hiphop band in Toronto. I'm the drummer, (who doesn't love a drummer now?) that's basically what I do and hope to do for quite some time. Most of my life revolves around listening to, writing, and performing music. I didn't pick music as a path, it picked me.... and as tough as this fucking business is, I'm happy and I've found my place. My apparent devilish lineage somewhere in my heritage caused me to come into this world as a goat-horned Aries, but my horns are quite well covered in my hairline ;) so you'll never really notice. I like quick wit, constant joking, moments of mad mad mad passion (I like as many of those as possible please), and Guiness. I'm a really big sucker for cute animals that need a home, and boy do they take advantage of it. I don't take life too seriously.... as life tends to regard me as a good joke. I've managed to figure out that God is a woman and she's displeased with me for the moment.... but I'll get back into her good books soon enough.

My Interests

Beautiful Funky Grrrrrlz, Good music, Lyricism, Cats, dabbling in assorted Witchcraft, Scotch, friendly wolf-like beasts, being a social butterfly, Many things British, Funk, Soul, Rock, finding creative ways to pay my rent.

I'd like to meet:

What's the reverse of HATERS??? Those people! Other social butterflies with whom I can flutter with, and anyone who might be nice enough to buy me a drink.... or two.... I can be highly suggestive and manipulatable after four!

Music:

Couldn't possibly have enough room here, but I'll give ya some examples: Jamiroquai, Lewis Taylor, Meshell N'degeocello, Prince, D'angelo, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Van Hunt, Jill Scott, The Roots, The Police, Incubus, Rage against the machine, Deftones...... Love a bunch of Toronto Bands that are pure dope. Good musick scene here.

Movies:

I love horror movies... but they freak me out! I watch them from behind my hands all the time. Shit, when I rent one I actually fast forward to the scary parts and then rewind them so I know they're coming. Ghost flicks really creep me out... I'll go for days without sleep. Kevin Smith flicks are great. A few favourites are 'Its All Gone Pete Tong', '12 Monkeys', 'Shaun of the Dead', 'Waiting...', 'The Good Thief', 'Swingers', & 'Almost Famous'.

Television:

Don't watch TV too much.... but I gotta admit my deep passion for The Simpsons. C.S.I. hooks me to the screen as well. I do watch a lot of Brit shows! Cracker, Blackadder, Only Fools & Horses, The Office, Little Britian, Smith & Jones, etc.

Books:

All of Edgar Allen Poe, Shakespeare (fuck U, I like it, even if we had to do it in highschool), Hemingway, Lester Bangs, Calvin & Hobbes, The Farside. And I REALLY like those books that open up, but are a compartment inside instead of pages.

Heroes:

Robin Hood (yeah the old good-natured archer & thief), Gene Oliver Lake, Billy Connolly, Eddie Izzard, Prince and anyone who is willing to attack the infected infrastructre without fear of reprisal!

'GENIUS'

I'm of the current opinion (self-inflicted of course) that the term 'Genius' is being thrown around a little too much. I hear this word being used for everything and anything lately..... Let's not co...
