and this is a band I was in until fairly recently:

roma delenda est

"Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self." - Cyril Connolly

i find that pathos is an essential element in art, for me -- without it, you've got to be REALLY fucking amazing at what you do to pique my interest and hold my attention -- and there are a few bands/artists that i enjoy who aren't particularly depressing or incredibly uplifting. hey, there's enough shit out there -- i can afford to be selective. YOU SHOULD BE TOO.

Ampeg V4
Ampeg VT-40
Traynor YBA-1
Traynor YBA-1
Peavey Butcher
Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier

I'd like to meet:

really, i'd just like to hang out with the good people i know who i rarely get to see. most of them live in Brooklyn, Seattle, and Portland these days.

Music:

that should give you the idea.

Movies:

A captured moment from one of the better days and experiences of my life (in the pit, Creation Is Crucifixion, MacRock, 2003).

Converge - "No Heroes" ... my review, of sorts
