I'd like to meet:

S'up!
I play drums.(check the vids) So, if you are a interesting band who need a drummer AND you share a similar taste in music with me then I will gladly have a jam.
I play gigs for little more than some alcohol, a smile and the idea that you do NOT desire fame or success, just a desire to be DAMN GOOD! the rest will follow.
THE REST WILL FOLLOW, peace dawgs.
