About Me

I've played drums, bass, and guitar for more than a decade, most recently with these bands:VICIOUS KINGS
ELISE MAJORIf you want to add me, go ahead. No e-mail needed. I won't get bent out of shape because you didn't send an e-mail. I won't send you a nasty letter telling you what a right shit you are because you didn't ask my permission before adding me. I won't even google your name, track down your address, and light a bag of crap on fire on your front doorstep. Hell, I feel priveledged you want me as your four thousandth friend. So, here's some facts about me:

I think in long sentences but talk in short onesI am a pacifist but believe some people deserve to be harmedI am one of a few billion people.Unfortionately I live on the same planet as them.I wish we could do away with select people without genocide.I wish there were more individuals.I wish a band was considered good for their music again.I wish mediocrity didn't pass for superiority.I wish a president would let me like my country again.I wish I knew what I was doing.I wish I could do what I want to do.I wish I could stop.
