bad news, Cale. I'm afraid that your position as my closest and dearest companion is being replaced

About Me

I play the sax. Ok. I'm an all around musician, but I love Jazz above all other styles. I'm a bit of a nerd on top of my band geek side, I love anime and video games, and sci fi shows are at the top of my favorite shows. of course along with that I love fantasy shows/movies as well, but sci fi gets the bigger pull. NO, I'm NOT a trekky. Donno why. I like to go to bars to listen to music, hang out with friends, knock back a beer. Oh, I guess to play in them too. Being over 21... It's (Oh,) So Nice.(Unless you play a lotta big band you ain't gonna get that one.)

Of the saxes, the bari is my favorite. I've played bari for all but 2 of the years i've played, sax overall since i was 10. I started in 6th grade at Floyd Dryden Middle School, worked my way up to bari in 7th grade, went on to Juneau Douglas Highschool and graduated from there. I stayed in Juneau for 2 years to get some GER College credits out of the way, played in the musical "HAIR" Which was put on by Perseverance Theatre in Juneau, and had one hell of a good time. Now I'm in Fairbanks, as I stated before, but Juneau will always be Home.

As of June 28, 2009, I am a father of a beautiful baby boy, Blake Alexander Lowen, weighing in at 8.8lbs, 21.5 inches, and 0 arrests. Even though the mother and I are no longer together, we are still friends. I plan on being here to raise my child. Even more than music, this is what's important to me! I still love my music and hope to get Blake(and his sister Keira!) into playing music at a young age.

I used to go to Sitka over the summer for Sitka Fine Arts Camp and it's a great experience to work with the middle school and high school kids as well as all of the professionals they bring in to teach about the fine arts, from music to Native Alaskan wood carving, to drawing, painting, dance, photography and more. It's truly an amazing place and time.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People. Friends. New friends. Friends I haven't met yet. I don't want to meet people who are extremely hypocritical, prejudiced, fascist, or mean. I believe everyone has the right to live the way they want, but just because I believe that doesn't mean I don't think those listed above are assholes. Oddly enough, a great deal of the folks I am friends with, especially my best friends, are of the opposite thinking in many fields, such as politics and religion.

I decided to take a few of these personality tests... they seem to change with time :|
