Born with a vintage soul

Love is the shadow that ripens the wine.

About Me

found this fantasy layout at HOT FreeLayouts.com / MyHotComments
I like 80s hard rock/classic rock music/old skool R&B/soul, blues, jazz, surf...all kinds of -ish. I play guitar and like to party & enjoy going to concerts! I look forward to meeting new people & making new friends, as well as hanging out/partying w/ the old tried & true friends from way back in the day. Lately I've become more adventurous and anxious to get out and see the world.
I'm officially down in SW Florida, on the Cape. I expect this change of pace/new scenery will be a good thing. I'm trading in the hills and mountains for flat land and sunny beaches.I've lived most of my life growing up in Chattanooga, TN & Florence, SC. In 2005 I moved out on my own to Birmingham. It was ok while it lasted, but a bit harder to asimilate than I intially imagined. I've learned a good bit about myself from just living by myself, and I've had an overall good experience there, but it is time to move on.

My Interests

Going to concerts/shows. Having a drink or two, partying, playing music, guitars, making music, cars, movies, shooting pool @ Parkway or CBC, hanging out w/ friends, having fun. All things a normal kid would enjoy!

I'd like to meet:

NEW: Cool people in the Cape/Ft Myers area who like to hang out/have a few drinks and be cool...also folks w/ a handful of knowledge on where to go in this town for a good time! It helps if they can explain directions well so a poor misinformed transplant like myself can find my way around!! That last part isn't mandatory though.

People w/ good taste in music who like to have fun, fool around, drink, whatever. Someone who is a good story-teller...or rather a good story to tell. Girls who wear hoop earrings...damn those are sexy!!!
