Daniel [John ,give parentheses a chance]

I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

Well let's see, Gosh, I'm 27, I love bike rides, I love beaches, I love going out on the town, cutting loose, just hanging out with my friends,I Love my hot car, I love shopping, I Love to live, I Love popcorn movies, I love anything on the radio, and I Love my friends, they are the best, oh and I Love Jesus!....Yay....Ummm yeah, I take that back, it's more like this. I'm just a guy, who is still searching for answers, ya know, the kind of questions your local church sign can answer. Sometimes I'm not sure what in the hell I'm looking for, I know Love is a part of the search, yes I've found love, but I'm striving to Love on so many other levels. My hope in this journey is to some how bring as much Peace into others lives as possible. I feel I'm still growing, still struggling, still learning, still believing. Family and Friends are still as important as they were yesterday. My ideals have changed, my mind has changed, my judgment has changed over the years. I've been freed of the closed mind I once had. Chances are, if you used to know me, you don't know me. Sometimes living in the South is refreshing, other times it's appalling. Traveling, Yes please. Music ceases to drop out of my top 10. Asheville is still my 2nd home town, for several reasons. I'm rethinking and relearning Jesus' teachings for their true meaning instead of the dry business like atmosphere I was raised around. I'm realizing the importance of Community and how much it is found in the bible and world. My life will look much different at the end of 2008. This country though free, feels sickening to me these days. I'm alive, I'm living, I'm trying, I'm happy with several area's of my life, and discontent with many others. I'm striving to help bring and seek the highest good in others, and finding out it's difficult. I don't want to talk about change I want to help bring it. Maybe now you know alittle "about me".

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

People interested in music or movies, and want to trade conversations about music and things in this world that actually matter. I don't want to write out exactly what type of people I want to meet because you should be able to see what I'm looking for when you see my profile.

Show List (1995-2006)

In the past 10 years I've done alot of traveling to go see shows...Our music scene here has been pretty horrible for several years now so I decided years ago to go wherever need be to see a good show. I've seen shows in almost 100 venues in and out of 11 different states...Including 3 of the biggests festivals in the country...This list reflects some amazing bands on it, but also some embarassing, but hey I was young for some of them so whatever, but in my travels, to do all of this I've spent lots of time and money and some would say I should have been saving my money, but I would never trade the experiences I've had going to shows with my friends, They were some of the best moments of my life...and I dont plan on letting this list ever stop growing...And I hope those of you who went to any of these shows with me will be reminded of the great times we had...without all of you to share those times with, the shows wouldnt have been worth going to

I don’t deserve sympathy, I deserve whatever comes my way

Lately I've noticed a reoccurring relapse each morning when I awake. I know it's been there for a good while, but it took a day like today when the lump became more of a physical issue for me to reali...
