I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm Joe.. I'm 23, I'm a musician, and a martial artist. I love music, mostly metal.. I love kung fu.. I train in Wing Chun, as well as a little bit of Tai Chi and the Five Animals.. I also have a love for beer, but that's to be expected when you're as Irish as I am :-D
I also re-joined Of Wrath And Ruin, playing Bass, and I'm also looking for a drummer and singer to re-form my old band The Heliand.
Want to know anything else? Send me a message or talk to me on AIM.

"I noticed that while I had the 'light of the world' in my life, I was still an outsider. I could not adapt to the cookie-cutter Christian model... I am a Shadow Dweller, lurking with a candle, holding it out to others... the world is dark to me, because it's so far from God's holy plan and design... lost, hellbound and full of people in complete denial... So I wear black and tell others that the world is empty and bleak, yet it does not have to be." - Pastor Ed Canter

Hills.

You know how people say life is full of hills and valleys? When you're on a hill, you're only thinking about that moment in time... about how everything right then is perfect and nothing else matters....
