About Me

I run a recording studio called Happy Fun Time Recording! I also work on computers.

My Interests

Music, recording, getting better at using my pinky when I play guitar, movies, running, biking, and I hate weight training but I still try to do it at least twice a week.

I'd like to meet:

Some people to play music with:
I'm a guitarist/singer with a studio who is seeking other musicians to start a new band. In particular I'm looking for people who play drums, bass, guitar, and keys - I'd mostly be playing acoustic guitar.
Influences/looking to sound a little like: Ween, the Beatles, the Zombies, Fountains of Wayne, the Flaming Lips, Guided by Voices, the Presidents of the United States of America, Matthew Sweet, Elliott Smith, Wilco, Simon & Garfunkel, and the Shins. Looking for lots of vocal harmonies - so if you sing, thats way better.

isn't that great of a TV show but I guess I didn't really give it much of a chance after the first couple episodes.
