I am here for Friends

About Me


..ACKGROUNDStheoretically old enough to know better, but sometimes I don't...no matter what I do to pay the bills, I'm a Musician...my epitaph may end up being "He tried to do his best, but he could not..."and yet in the year since I got here, I've evolved, and grown in significant ways, thanks to my current and future Friends, be they "cyber" or "biological"...

My Interests

planes trains and automobiles-and one ship, the Titanic; music music and Music

I'd like to meet:

my grandparents...most of my cyber-Friends...

Music:

where do I begin? there is so much Music I haven't heard yet...and there's so much Music I DO know...what I LIKE is at least some, but not everything by Neil Young Frank Zappa the Byrds Kate Bush Laura Nyro the Who Hendrix POCO the RANKINS the Story the Roches Capercaille 5th Dimension the Stones CSNY Prince Cyndi Lauper Joni Joe Walsh Steely Dan, Costello, Joe Jackson,the Cretones, the Producers, Cheap Trick The Police,the Hollies BEACH BOYS,Buffalo Springfield the Grateful Dead Allman Brothers the Band Chicago,Sly and the Family Stone Sherri Lyn Robbins Santana Pink Floyd Yes ELP KIng Crimson ABBA Talking Heads Queen etc., etc.,

Movies:

lots of favorites,but there are some "classics" I haven't seen yet, CITIZEN KANE for starters...

Television:

mostly the older stuff...

Books:

the Johnstown Flood-David McCullogh, In Search of Amelia Earhart-Fred Goerner, Shakey-Jimmy McCullough...any book you can get lost in...

Heroes:

hmmmm...the day after Memorial Day I say anybody who comes back from a war in one piece...or maybe it's the ones that DON'T come back who are the heroes...

My Blog
