About Me

I'm a 35 yr old single white male- 6 foot 4 blond hair blue eyes 250 lbs I live in Echo Park -- a part of Los Angeles between downtown and Hollywood. One of my apartments borders Elysian park--the one i use as an office- the other-- where I live- -in downtown proper-- on the other side of dodger stadium- so it's as close to living in the country as you could expect when you live 200 yards from Sunset blvd! :-)I have worked in the music business since I was 19--- and NO-- I do not work at a record store----- I used to promote concerts-- write articles and do interviews for magazines- do marketing and sales for the Los ANgeles Times- I had an A+R job and signed Kyuss- who are now Queens of the Stone Age--- as well as working closely with Stone Temple Pilots Rage Against the Machine Ice T's Body Count ETHYL MEATPLOW- and many others. I currently manage a band called Crossfade--- check out the site at Crossfadeonline.com and a band from portland or called JOnah- jonahtheband.com- I co manage riverside ca band grounded-- groundedtheband.com-- so now you can get lots of free music ON ME! :-) See how nice I am to you already!?!?! I like fine dining-- going to movies and concerts---- but not club hopping needlessly to see loud local bandds-- unless I like them-- Been to thousands of shows--- so doing that is definately an extension of my job-- since I don't drink hanging out in bars is not something I enjoy-but not somethign i am against doing to hang with friends--- and cool places with a vibe-- Ill go- hang out and have a coke as long as the company is good!I am enjoying the travel I get to do as my clients stay out on tour- but I'm not the type who could live in the bottom bunk on a bus for months on end......so I stay in Hollywood and run stuffI am also going on a USO tour with crossfade- kuwait jabudi( african coast) baharain- turkey, italy german and the uk-- in late may-- somethign I am really looking forward to- getting my passport stamped in some really off the wall places will be AWESOME! :-)I like to hang out with smart people-- one of the biggest turn ons I know is for a lady to reference something she heard on the news- or refernce a project she is working on--- something brainy-- brainy to me is about as sex as it gets On the other side of the coin- you could look like Anna Kournikova but if you smack gum - call your girlfriendshoes and enjoy watching Springer and Judge Judy PLEASE STAY AWAY!I'm a bit shy. smart-- a good listener-- and cuddler- and giver of amazing massage as well-----love to hang out and laugh-- but not at the expense of handling my business! most people that meet me end up thinking Im cool beans-- and I end up feeling the same about them- although "good friends" have to earn the title- as I expect to have to earn that title myself! flakes- lateness- and rainbow talkers-- people who will spend all day chatting up a project-- an idea-- a gig-- because they are dreamers-- and really have nothing- nothing at all- going on--those three things are to me the most unattractive of traits-- and - again- if anna k was sporting em- id head the other way!

My Interests
