About Me

"How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he sometimes thinks he senses it."Wow, that's deep Albert... Because I put your quote on my space it really makes me look legit.I just want you all to know that these are my layered sounds and processed beats...Usually Pete , Sam and I play music seperately unless we play it together... yup.
fart

And this is why I hate modern music... Lake Tahoe. My Room, where I spend my day recording. My organ and a sculpture I made of BB King in the top right corner... it doesn't look a thing like him.
This is one of those memories where everyone is smiling. Scratches on the table.
This is an old picture of my bass playin' days... yup.
