I like: music. dance (danced for 20 years, taught for 10). art. animals (except bees!). acting like a dork. cracking myself up. raising hell. listening to music. going to see live music. people watching. kickin back. having cocktails with friends. playing poker. raising more hell. the patriots. the red sox. ice cream. iced coffee. the ocean. thunderstorms! black leather. black boots. fishnets. dressing up. ;) and most of all...absolutely un-f*cking-controlable laughter!
Now PLEASE PAY ATTENTION HERE...I DO NOT ACCEPT FRIEND REQUESTS FROM PEOPLE OR BANDS THAT I DON'T ACTUALLY KNOW - and if there's a possibility I won't recognize you, email me! And although I appreciate the emails from men saying things like "Great smile", you're not going to get a reply so don't send nasty emails asking why I didn't send one...I'm not here to flirt with strangers. Nothing personal. Thanks. Ciao.

You only have eight responsibilities during a baseball game: Take your hat off for the National Anthem; don't take your shirt off; don't bring your baseball glove if you're over 13; don't wear a jersey with your own name on it; don't run onto the field; don't reach into the field of play to grab a pop-up or ground ball if it could adversely affect your team; don't boo one of your own players unless it's absolutely warranted; and don't throw up. That's it. Everything else is up to you.

ALWAYS REMEMBER: Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

My heart keeps playin it through
With you, my friend...
I'll take my chances on you
again and again.

Fear breeds withdrawal,
Jealousy breeds insanity,
Acceptance breeds maturity,
Conceptually to be me is to be me;
A self-sufficient entity.
~John Monopoly
And being alone is the best way to be,
when I'm by myself nobody else can say goodbye.

You can turn off the sun

Life isn't about finding yourself, it's about creating yourself.
~George Bernard Shaw ;)
While we may not be able to control all that happens to us,
we can control what happens inside us.

You were my angel,
now you are real...
So like a stranger,
Colder than steel.

Pause the music player above, and watch the video below!
Music has always been a main ingredient in my life...about 99.9% of the friends I've made and have kept throughout the years initially started out due to a mutual love for music. I practically lived at the old Living Room from 1986 til it closed, then Rockit and then worked at Club Baby Head for a few years...good times. Some think my taste in music is strange; maybe it's just too varied for some to accept. Some favorites are: Dave Matthews Band. Motley Crue. Led Zeppelin. Erik Narwhal. Patrick MacAloon. Jason Mraz. Blues Traveler. Rush. Faith No More. Silvertide. Metallica w/Cliff. VanHalen w/DLR. Sabbath w/Ozzy. Old Extreme. AC/DC. NIN. Chucklehead. The Chili Peppers. Devin Townsend. Queensryche. Death Angel. The Beatles. The Black Crows. The Beastie Boys. Foo Fighters. Pantera. Slipknot. Danny Elfman. Ray Charles. Temple of the Dog. Heart. Eva Cassidy. Fiona Apple. Bonnie Raitt. Joss Stone. Sarah McLachlan. Cheesy 80's Metal. Silly 80's dance. 70's rock. Some oldies, some Motown. Old School Rap/Funk. Classical guitar. Flamenco guitar. Steel guitar...any guitar I guess. Steve Vai. Tony MacAlpine. Billy Sheehan. Jeff Buckley. Steve Morse. Eric Johnson. SRV. KWS. Robert Johnson. Hendrix. Buddy Guy. My Buddy Tim. Jason Becker. Marty Freidman. Alexi Laiho.
And the single, most talented person I've ever known; Dave Suzuki.
