Life, music, The Buddhist 'philosophy', writing lyrics, poetry, playing bass & fucking with computers... You'll find that I'm a club monger and hang out frequently @ area local venues. I enjoy camping immensely and by camping I mean digging a hole, a tent, fire, etc...Also White water rafting rocks my world!
That's easy...All of the 'below' ~aka~ (All of the above) and ALL of my NEW friends of course! There are 3 people I would hopefully meet some day-- take Bass guitar lessons with...FLEA (RHCP) and WILL TURPIN (Collective Soul)PLUS- would LOVE to meet John Frusciante as well and share my writing experiences with him; do some comparisons, etc...
Brian (awesome bass player) from 'SILVERTIDE' offered to give me those bass lessons I so desperately need! Kudos to Brian! ;)I've been truly blessed by THOSE I've HAD the pleasure to meet! ;) All persons I've 'personally' met are top friended! Some others are top friends due to the fact they inspire & support me through thick and thin!... "Life's been good to me so far", but- "What a drag it is getting old"! (NOT REALLY-AGE IS JUST A #)!!

The list changes from time to time; considering there are so many GREAT new artists producing EXCELLENT music out there! Also enjoy & whole-heartedly support LOCAL BANDS/CLUBS/ORIGINAL/UNDERGROUND MUSIC...Basically, Rock, Funk, Metal, Grunge, Punk, Trance, Local, Garage, Original/Indie, Folk/Rock, UK Bands (many)...Too many too mention here!! (in no particular order)Listen to Hurdy Gurdy Man [Single Version] by Donovan : http://www.napster.com/player/tracks/12516728
Ehemm...Love TV LAND! (when I watch TV!) I like most music documentaries! WATCH A LOT OF videos! Sometimes too many..But is too many ever enough? humm...Two favorite MUSIC DOCS. are "Imagine" w/John Lennon and "Free Bird- The Movie" (Lynryd Skynryd)Also... LOVE the Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, Great American Dad, King of the Hill, Futurama (Cartoon NW)...you get the idea? Cartoon 'stuff' hehe Here's an interesting Video I came across...Check it out!
I enjoy anything and own/collect almost everything by Stephen King; I enjoy Edgar Allan Poe, Shakespeare, and most poetry. ee cummings, Yeats, Emotional Soldier, and many others! 2 much 2 mention right now... Sidney Sheldon is one of my favorite writers as well. Currently, attempting to complete Bob Spitz's "The Beatles - The Biography"...about 1300+ pages, BUT GR8 BOOK!! (I'll finish it some day?!) I've just read "Scar Tissue"; what an smack-ass touch of reality by Anthony Kiedis (RHCP). GET THIS BOOK!!!
Basically- People who give a fuck are my heroes!I would have to say my 'fav' hero is John Lennon! I actually have many 'heros'...But Lennon fought for peace and love for all mankind! That's all we need in the world today...a little more of both. If he were alive today, I'd bet he'd be a politician or something to that caliber!My father is my hero as well...He's always been there for me in the past, unconditionally...He was a true hero, saving school children in the 60's, carrying each one out of a school buliding, two by two,over his shoulders after they passed out from coal heater fumes!Other heros include, my children (OF COURSE!), my soul-mate, Gandhi, George Harrison, Bob Geldof, Nelson Mendela, Jane Fonda and last but not least...Patty Smith! Many others as well...
