I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm married to a beautiful gal named Gena (yes, spelled with an "e"). I'm the lead singer and guitar player for a band named Skorchamenza. I love chicken. I once filed for bankruptcy, but I'm better now. I play a lot of video games. I like a good conversation with no more than three people. I've never been able to do a cartwheel. I'm really good at bowling. I once had sex with a teenager when I was seventeen. I strongly urge everyone to go to Hawaii once in their lifetime. I think 98% of people in the U.S.A. are pretty swell (and that may or may not include you).

My Interests

I love my wife, my brother, and my friends. I'm into playing video games, writing music, and taking long showers. Can you dig it?

I'd like to meet:

Andy Kaufman, "Ravishing" Rick Rude, Marc Bolan, Harry Houdini, Sam Kinison, Kurt Cobain, and countless other dead people!

Music:

Skorchamenza, The Hives, Nirvana, Black Lips, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Beastie Boys, Black Camaro, Big Friendly Corporation, The Beatles, The Who, The Presidents of the United States of America, The Laymen, The Flash Express, Kings of Leon, The White Stripes, The Black Keys, and The Pixies.

Movies:

Rushmore, Baseketball, Grease 2, The Kids Are Alright, High Fidelity, Clerks, Muppet's Treasure Island, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Team America World Police, and Spiderman.

Television:

Saved By The Bell, The Office, Arrested Development, Scrubs, South Park, and The Monkees.

Heroes:

My Blog

Don’t Support Your Local Music Scene

When a band says mid-set "support your local music scene" it's generally a sad cry for help.  Or even a guilt trip.  They are not good enough to entertain people, so it must be the people's ...
