About Me


"They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin
After all these years of filling out "About Me" sections, I still hate talking about myself. For now all you need to know about me is that:
I love steak
My sideburns have survived three Presidential elections and will probably outlive us all
I watch more documentaries than most people watch commercials
and I want to swim with Great White Sharks.
To simply say that "I love music" or "music is my life" would be a gross understatement. Those that know me know very well how music has helped shape my life. I firmly believe music is an art form, not a commodity. Music is the purest form of expression and its value far exceeds that of paper money.
I play drums for a band here in Salt Lake known as Fail to Follow . Check them out if you get bored. Anything else you want to know, feel free to ask!

My Interests

Music, music, music and music. Did I mention music? Great White Sharks, Drums, percussion, history, philosophy, food, movies, Scuba, family, travelling, any video games that invlolve pistol whipping or sniping. Not sure what else at the moment.

I'd like to meet:

People that are shorter than me, I'm intimidated by tall people. People that will let me sleep on their couches while I am passing through their town. People with similar interests. Bands, booking agents, promoters, musicians, etc. and anyone who is not mindlessly brainwashed by popular culture.
