I like adventures.
I'm reaching out to nice people who like music. Lots. I dig people who are funny and smart and weird. People who like the moon and the mood it puts you in. People who like kitsch tat and Ebay. People who tell stories. People who get wrapped up in the moment. People who want out of their shitty office jobs.
Come, let's have an adventure: liberty is at hand!
All and sundry. Have you a good heart? Then you're for me! Let's talk about stuff we dig and how we'll grab the world by the scruff of its neck and blow people's tiny minds. Or alternatively, if your black heart's rotting at the core, then I'm your man. We'll have midnight adventures and drink tears from a cup, while we reel to heartbreakingly beautiful music. And other stuff like that.
