Keep repeating that Name, get in the Game, like you're scarerd you'll forget it, but I can't blame y

About Me

I am who I am, I love life and get along with most everyone that I meet. I realize that we are in a society where everone has a mask, everyone puts up a front, always trying to be someone they are not... I am sure you know what I mean. Basically, forget all that :) It's important to be real and thats what I have been focusing on lately.

My Interests

I have been surrounded by music for 20 years of my life so needless to say it is a big part of me. This last year I have become deeply interested in the Culture and Music of West Africa, the intensity of that music is unmatched! I also play guitar and sing and play some piano, why not learn it all right? Other than that, I like to stay active, I snowboard, skate, surf and keep my self in shape. AND of course, what would life be like without going out and having some fun!

I'd like to meet:

Good people with a decent head on their shoulders. Also musicians who are intersted in eclectic music. Finally, any dancers who are lookin to get into the Rythms of Africa.

Music:

Without it, the world would be so dull... I have a band called Jet Black Halo that you should all listen to, we play shows, come support and have a good time ;) I listen to many different styles but most of it is music that makes you think. I like Progressive music ahead of it's time: Pain of Salvation, Porcupine Tree, Marillion... I like some independent HipHop: Immortal Technique, Atmosphere, Fuggees where tight too, haha and also, I listen to the high-energy traditional rythms of West Africa: Mamady Keita, Famadou Konate, Fode Seydou Bangoura. That long list of bands that everyone has on their page is soon to come.

Movies:

Everything from, Old School to Devil's Rejects, movies are great. Some that really stuck out in my mind: What the Bleep do we Know??, El Labarinto de Fauno (Pan's Labyrinth), Planes, Trains and Automobiles...no time to list em all

Television:

Not for me, thanks

Books:

The Tao of Pooh, haha... many many others

Heroes:

Mom, Dad and the great people who have inspired me over the years
