Four String Music Thing

(got caffeine?)

About Me

I love music (especially string instruments). I play the bass, and some regular guitar on the side as well; mostly acoustic. I like lots of kinds of music, but mostly rock. I'm lookin' to do a heavy rock-metal type band. I have wide musical influence, and play all kinds of music. I love jammin' out to heavy shit. Playing music is really the only talent/skill I possess that I really enjoy doing. Playing live is one of the best things in the world to me. I need to find a band with the same ideas about the direction that they want to take music as I do. I am a bassist for hire. Unless you're a band for hire. If that's the case, I'm now hiring.
New and upcoming bands/musicians who have absolutely nothing new to bring to the table aren't worth listening to.
I like to party with cool people. I don't know what else to say about that one.
If my page looks goofy, it's because I designed this background to fit to 1024x768 resolution.
My "top friends" consists of artists that I feel need support and recognition. Whether they be a local group from the area, or just a band I've come across, they're there so you can check 'em out.

My Interests

music, movies, philosophy, technology, art, home made cookies. 36 Crazyfists.

I'd like to meet:

Most people put their heroes or favorite people or celebrities or somethin' here, but I don't really care to meet anyone like that. Who I'd really like to meet is my little sister. My mom split when I was two or three, and then had a kid a few years later. I'm guessing her daughter doesn't even know she has a couple big brothers-- she probably wasn't updated considering the way my mom seems to be.

Heroes:

Musicians who aren't afraid to throw something totally new and different in the faces of their fans. Vocalists who sing with raw emotion.
