About Me

Please Remove Your Head from Your Ass before reading any further...
My biggest passion in life is traveling, not vacationing. ALL INCLUSIVE means I didn't forget to put something in my pack or saddlebags! I've backpacked in the CDN Rockies, snorkeled with Manatees, hiked the Grand Canyon, & rode to the Indy 500. To support my traveling addiction I make and sell victorian jewelry at Renaissance Festivals throughout North America
I'm a total contradiction....
On one hand I'm a garden addict (esp. culinary herbs). I just finished both a Horticulture & Landscape Design degree... next on my list is a Culinary Arts Diploma. I'm also studying Taiko (Japanese Drumming) & Tai Chi. I'm very much into organic crops, solar/wind power, and generally living in tune with nature, but I do try to keep my granola intake to a minimum.
On the other hand I'm into tattoos, piercings, and Harleys.... all of which I have several of. I've played in bands most of my life (mainly alternative, industrial, or gothic), and I own a recording studio. I'm currently trying to put together a psychobilly band - anyone know someone that can tinkle some ivories like Jerry Lee?!

I'd like to meet:

Cool people with a passion for life.

If the most exciting thing that you talk about is how crazy you got at the bar on the weekend, who did what to whom on Desperate Housewives, or what sports team trounced another, youâ€™ve got the wrong guy!

However, if you send me a Friend Request, you'd better also send a message unless I already know you. I'm not here to gratify my ego by collecting names and pictures on a bullshit Friend's List. Have something to say, and talk often....

Psychobilly, Rockabilly, Electronica, Worldbeat, Alternative, 70's Classic Rock, Industrial, Gothic. . . . .

I'm also in the process of putting together a new psychobilly band called The Hell's Half Acre Band (look in my friend's list). We desperately need a piano player that can tinkle the ivories Jerry Lee style!

Mr Holland's Opus, Aliens, Koyaanisqatsi, A Knight's Tale, LadyHawke, Say Anything, Seven Years in Tibet, and anything Vampire Related - I have almost 300 vampire films
