Important: If you are a band looking at my profile and I do not know you personally, please do not friend this profile. Instead, friend my music profile, and I swear I will listen to your stuff and add you if I like it. If you try and friend this profile, well, who knows. Some days I might listen, other days that delete button might look very nice.
My Music Profile
Conspiracy - Hold Out Your Hand / You By My Side
Here are some random facts about me since I kind of suck at describing myself.
I am a music addict. My money always seems to be spent on music equipment, CD's, etc. I was the bassist in the band Hamilton , which dissolved in the spring of 2006. Over the summer of 2005, I played guitar, bass, and programmed loops for the metal project Thriver. Unfortunately, two of the members moved, so the project is currently inactive. Presently, I play bass and keyboard in The Fever Dream . And if I find time (at school, never!), I also make some music by myself (check out my music profile).
I am currently an engineering major at Penn State University Park, which seriously conflicts with my lifestyle of being a slacker. State College is awesome, but school sucks.
My procrastination skill is a thing of legend.
I have played dozens of sports in the past. I am decent in most, but exceptional in none (well maybe bowling).
I firmly believe that Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson are the coolest mofos ever to rock the lighted stage. And I wish Neil Peart was actually one of my professors.
I am extremely un-photogenic. If you take a picture of me, I will probably look bad in it.
I go through unhealthy amounts of macaroni and cheese, because it's a 30 cent meal, and it's delicious.
Anything else you want to know (personality, thoughts on life, etc.), you're probably going to have to ask me.
