I am here for Friends

About Me

Just your typical recently-graduated art student/aspiring illustrator who's obsessed with anything art or music related. Anyway, anybody reading this probably already knows enough about me already, so I won't go on with the rest of the boring details.

My Interests

Looking at fancy pictures, hanging out with my lady, music, making fancy pictures, booze, keeping up my indie rock street cred, you know... just the usual. I also have a real hard time passing up a good game of scrabble, and no that doesn't make me a nerd.

I'd like to meet:

Pretty much anybody that doesn't suck at life.

Music:

So if I put it all here this'll be the most ridiculously long list in the world, so the best of the best (at least for the moment) would have to be...... Tom Waits, Pavement, Silver Jews, TV on the Radio, Interpol, Joy Division, The Clash, Old School Modest Mouse, The Cure, The New Pornographers, Sufjan Stevens, Neutral Milk Hotel, Of Montreal, Bloc Party, Massive Attack, Mr. Bob Dylan of course, Cursive, Woody Guthrie, Built to Spill, Calexico, Godspeed You Black Emperor, Phish, Wolf Parade, Iron & Wine, The Shins, The Flaming Lips, Explosions in the Sky, The Decemberists, Sonic Youth, Spoon, Wilco, Tortoise, Yo La Tengo, Sigur Ros, Brian Eno, Devendra Banhart, Elliott Smith, Giant Sand/ Howe Gelb, Beck,........ well you get the point. And of course, Phil mother f-ing Collins.

Movies:

Amelie, Little Miss Sunshine, Rushmore, The Royal Tennenbaums, Old School, Waiting for Guffman The Big Lebowski, Garden State, the Nightmare Before Christmas, Stranger Than Fiction, Swingers, Donnie Darko..... and way more that I don't feel like thinking of right now.

Television:

Arrested development is the only tv show I need in my life.

Books:

Anything with a lot of pictures, or anything by Jorge Luis Borges.... and I'm currently trying very hard to work my way through all of "In Search of Lost Time" by Marcel Proust

Heroes:

Alberto Giacometti, Dali, Egon Schiele, Doc, Harry Clarke (if you know who he is you're one of my new favorite people), Edward Gorey, etc.....
