About Me

I play bass guitar for a rock band out of san diego. curiosity has always grabbed me about what a band is like, without the lights, stage and stringed instruments - you know, behind the scenes. Maybe you feel that way about our band. so, i thought i'd let you cartwheel into my brain and snack on a bit-sized portion of what thoughts motor through my streets of consciousness, what cinema fascinates me, what music inspires me and what literature takes me places. sometimes i'll post a few lines and you can read them ... or you can gracefully perfect the art of riding a mechanical bull.... i guess it's really up to you.
