I am here for Friends

About Me

Info about me eh? Well....... I figured that now is a good time to start enjoying life as much as I can, since I've raised a family, been married twice and worked my ASS off for about 30 yrs. or so. In my quest for adding to my already bountiful musical interests, I have nurtured a fondness for metal music, especially female fronted metal which is so predominate in Europe! My favorites?........ Leaves' Eyes, In This Moment, Lacuna Coil, Epica, After Forever, Walls Of Jericho, Arch Enemy +++. That's about it and....... oh yeah.......... I'm STILL working my ass off too! ..

Man, what a great way to start your set!! This is The Birthday Massacre on May 25th videoed by someone at The Wiltern with their opening tune 'Red Stars'. I can see loosing about five pounds by the end of their set! :)

Lyrics | Looking Glass lyrics

Music:

Music? Just about everything! Not too much country, but heavy into female fronted metal. I'll listen to just about anything else for that matter. Favorite artists? Lacuna Coil, Enya, Collide, Epica, and many, many more. Favorite tunes? Virtual Environment, Orinoco Flow, Discord, Indigo/Obsessive Devotion, etc. etc.!

Sometimes I'm away from my computer and i want to hear my music so I broadcast it to my laptop. I call it Femmetal and you can hear it to by clicking the banner above and downloading a file if it offers you one. You'll need a multimedia player that will receive internet radio such as winamp, WMP, MPC or similar. If it flashes, I'm on!

My video of Arch Enemy showing a decent light show! The guitar work is superior! Good times for sure!

... and my photo set from the same show! They used a huge amount of fog so I tried to make good friends with Photo Shop for a day, but I still like 'em!

Here's my shots of Nightwish blowing the roof off of the Cowboy's Ranch in London, Ontario. You may be able to tell by some of the photos, it was a sellout of 900+!

Patience is a virtue! My Nightwish setlist:

Here's my photo set of OT3P playing at Harpo's! It was one wicked night of energy!

This is a video I call 'A Study of DNA - In The Pit For OTEP'. It's very dark but you should still be able to tell that it was one crazy night with OT3P!
