About Me

"Students asked me how often they should practice to get good. I always laughed at that and said, 'However long it takes, of course!' Some people spend an hour a day and get great and some people spend 12 hours a day and never improve. The only answer is 'However long it takes.'"
- Jason Becker

I sing and play guitar in a band called Serenity Now! -- album out now, shows all over the Bay Area, asses have been kicked, many more ass-kickings to come.

I'm old enough to know I can't change the world on my own, but young enough to still try.

My Interests

Music, guitar, singing, money, pretty girls (a wiseman once said "huh-huh"), maca, baseball, football, staying up all night and sleeping all day, falling short, living in the past, counting my chickens before they hatch, making fun of you

I'd like to meet:

Fellow fried chicken n' waffle lovers who don't mind my schizophrenic musical tastes.
