About Me

I am a musician. I play music for a living and do lighting for live bands in my spare time. I drink. I travel quite a bit with my band and am always on the go when the weather is good.I don't like needles. I hate giving blood.I don't do drugs anymore.I have good days and bad days like everyone else, although, on the bad days I feel like ripping my guts out and punching old ladies...really.I like cartoons and old movies. I have recently re-discovered the joys of reading. I hope to one day speak as well as I read.I am sometimes extremely nice, and at other times the biggest asshole you'll ever meet...but I'm not bi-polar...I think. You decide.

My Interests

Playing music. Reading.

I'd like to meet:

Kilgore Trout. I don't have any children, but if I do, sure.

Music:

You name it, I probably have something to say about it. I love music. I'll listen to just about anything. I grew up on metal/punk/hardcore. My cd collection contains just about every genre of music, and yes, I have my dirty little music shames.

Movies:

Lawrence of Arabia, Taxi Driver, Dawn of the Dead, American Pimp, American Movie, Lolita, Rear Window, The Thing, The Changeling. Anything Kubrick.

Television:

MST3K.

Books:

The Daily Adventures of Mixerman-Mixerman. J.D. Salinger, Kurt Vonnegut.

Heroes:

People with luck and the ability to make money.

My Blog

I think Myspace died.

It's true. Or maybe I'm just not popular.
