About Me

So hmm lets see, what to say about myself. Well, I'll give you the boiled down version. Played bass for almost 11 years now and don't plan on ever quitting. Recently started playing bass for Triple Helix, check 'em(us?) on the top list. Also check out the tunes page, also in the top list for some sloppy home recording action. I'm into the car thing, stop by Central Street Scene and say whats going on if you want. I talk way too much. I don't sleep enough. I'm the kind of person who will take a 3 hour road trip to go see a band most people have never heard of. My thoughts tend to follow an unusual pattern... it doesn't really make sense to anybody but me. At least everyone seems to find it somewhat amusing most of the time. This is how I am, if it bugs you I don't really care. The world doesn't owe me anything and as far as I'm concerned I'm just another shlub trying to get through life, accomplish something while I'm here and enjoy myself while doing it.

My Interests

So I'm kinda into doing this band thing if you haven't noticed... Besides that, I tend to tinker with things... cars, music equipment, fixing computers for people...

I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

I'd like to meet:

I'll talk to anyone for a few minutes... but that doesn't mean I find you interesting. You have to have something going on in that little head of yours if you expect to hear from me more than once.

Music:

Lately been listening to: Chevelle, 30 Seconds to Mars,Breaking Benjamin, Trivium, Bullet for my Valentine, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Apocalyptica, Killswitch Engage, and a lot of misc. rock, metal, and industrial bits. I listen to a lot more stuff than that but listing every band you've ever liked is kind of pointless.

Movies:

I'm really behind on movies these days. Always been into James Bond movies, old Alfred Hitchcock, Robbery stuff like the Italian Job and Oceans 11/12/13, in all honesty I like about anything just some more than others.

Television:

Recently rediscovered how much I like Scrubs... but really don't watch much TV.

Books:

This is one of those things I wish I had time for. I'm so burnt out on school, and don't have a whole ton of free time, so the idea of reading even more doesn't appeal to me much right now.

This damn car

Is going to be the death of me, or at the least take some years off my life. After 2 months its still in the garage, inoperable, with 150 PSI of compression on one side of the motor, and 25 on the oth...

Got the car out tonight

Yep, that made today a good day. Aired up the tires, dumped some oil in, put some good gas in, and just went driving for a couple hours.  It was great.  The car hadn't been driven since OCTO...

I actually slept almost all day...

Yep, seriously.  Didn't roll out of bed until about 2:30, took a shower, then slept on the couch until about 7.  Wasn't so much that I was being lazy as that whenever I stood up I felt like ...

Impending demise of the band and other news...
