I'm a theatre person, which means that I'm generally loud and outgoing. Plus, I have the best memory for useless information. I know so much random trivia about movies that my friends have dubbed me the walking, breathing version of the IMDB. It really can be scary. I can tell you things about movies that I've never even seen before. I don't know, I just have a knack for random trivia. But if you ask me when someone's birthday is, or about anniversaries of events- I'm in trouble. I play bass guitar, and while I'm certainly not the best, I'm also not the worst. Hopefully my roommate and I can finally get our band together soon and tour the countryside...or something to that effect. Music and performance are my life, end of story. If I don't have music to listen to and to drive me, or I can't be performing for an audience, then I'm not nearly as happy as I could be.
I guess I'd like to use MySpace for the same things most others do. I want to use it for the following A) networking B) staying in touch with old friends.Just a forewarning- Don't take it personally if I don't add you. I generally reserve this for people who are already known to me that I've actually MET face to face, and for staying up to date with bands whose music I enjoy. I don't view MySpace as a popularity contest to see who can get the most friends, guess I'm one of the few people left who actually think that way.

Bruce Campbell- The man worked his way up from humble beginnings to become an actor in a world gone mad, and he has my undying respect for what he's done.Socrates- Even in the face of extreme adversity, facing his own death, he would not change his views to suit the ruling class, he went to his death with honor.My parents- Two people who have taught me all they have to offer, and have given me everlasting support in whatever I choose to do. Plus, anybody who can put up with me for 22 years must be tough as nails.
