JD...for President

Thou shall honor (and buy) thy music...and pop rocks:)

About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

I have a degree in broadcasting and music. I am a complete music nut--it's my passion, it's what I do, it's the number 1 thing that I ever want to do. I performs with a variety of rock, pop, and country bands. My favorite project that I play bass for/manage is Christie's Ex--The Ultimate Billy Joel Tribute Band. I also currently perform regularly with The Homewreckers (female fronted country/rock), filling in with Bueller (all 80's rock/pop), and play with Amber Leigh (a phenomenal singer/fiddle player) and Shelly Williams (great country singer) when they perform locally. (Click on my music page [my #1 friend] to see all of my gig dates and get gig info.) Like everyone else in this town, I also do my share of songwriting. (**Below this section you can preview and buy some of my songs!! C'mon, you know you want to!!**;) I'm a writer for Phantom 4 Music--a publishing company/record label in Canada. I also work with a few other publishers in Nashville and LA. Despite my wholesome looks, I have an extremely off-the-wall-sense of humor. I say things that others only think. I'm very laid back and outgoing, yet very opinionated. I know when to bite my lip (usually) and when to tear someone a new one. I love the Packers, animals, pizza, working out, and I'm a political junkie. I actually study all the issues before I shoot my mouth off about them. There's a difference between ignorance and stupidity, but the end result is the same!! Gaining knowledge--what a concept!!

My Interests

Studying the physics of Pop Rocks, music, watching Richard Simmons' "Sweatin' To The Oldies" videos, Packers' football, analyzing the mating habits of brown pigmy goats', carbon dating Play-Dough, breeding spider monkeys, non-psychotic females (Is that an oxy moron?--J/K:), caressing Flemish Giant bunnies, more football, a bit more music, more hot 'n' sane (not INSANE) chicks, researching paranormal activity, fighting my addiction to artichoke-laced pizza, making goofy lists, oh forgot...and working out a bunch at Gold's Gym!!

I'd like to meet:

The person who invented "Pop Rocks"--that guy's a genius!! If I can't meet him, how about an attractive, fit, cool chick (sorry I'm not politically correct) that takes her medication is she suffers from depression. Is that too much to ask?

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

Music:

I don't do rap or hip-hop. Sorry kids, I'm a musician and I actually like my music played on real instruments. Anything else bring it on. If it came from the 80's I probably love it. I'll chill to Air Supply or rock out to Dokken. Newer bands that I like are Vertical Horizon, Toad the Wet Sprocket (they've been broken up for quite a few years), Tonic, Maroon 5, 3 Doors Down. I'm also up on all the country stuff. Of course I'm a Billy Joel fan since I play with "Christie's Ex"--The Ultimate Billy Joel Tribute Band!! I love great musicianship--whether it's an insane bluegrass banjo player pickin' at 250 beats per minute, Satriani pulling out some blazing chops or Brent Mason blowing my mind with his chicken pickin'. Also, a great song is a great song, no matter if it's country, rock, or Eastern Camobodian folk music:)

Movies:

Spinal Tap, 40 Yr-Old Virgin, Old School, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Caddyshack, American Pie 1 & 3--all timeless!! Oh yeah...and all the ones I found in my cousin's underwear drawer that were in a "Hustler" bag;)

Television:

98% of my time is usually spent on Fox News, with channel surfing between CMT, VH-1, MTV, Comedy Central, Discovery Channel, Court TV, Animal Planet, and maybe a few others. Of course that's not counting football season. Oh yeah, the show "Ghost Hunters" on the Sci-Fi channel is the greatest!!

Books:

Whatever is available in "Cliff Notes":)

Heroes:

Anyone who actually follows and knows ALL of the issues regarding political candidates and exactly what that person stands for/has voted on before pulling the lever for that candidate. Voting for someone because Dan Rather tells you to means you'd qualify as a moron in most foreign territories. If you can't think for yourself then I'd like to remind you that parachute pants, fanny packs, mullets, and stocking caps in August are all still cool!!

My Blog

People who piss me off!!

I'm not a "blog" type of guy because I realize most people don't give a rat's ass about someone else's day to day thoughts or actions....nor should they.   Hence, I'll try to make this rant pithy...
