There is nothin' "General" about me... I'm deeply and wonderfully complex... If you're really interested (which you probably aren't) scroll up about 6 inches and click Send Message
F.A.Q. do i know you!?
probably not... but let's work on that... i do get around a lot and i've seen a few of those "is that the guy from myspace!?" looks... yeah, it's me... go 'head and say hello, i don't bite--okay that's not entirely true--but say hello anyway..;).
who are you!?
my name is eric and i am many things--some which may be of particular interest to you... you'll have to be a lil' more specific...
how'd you find me!?
i found you on myspace--fuck if i know... "it's a small world afterall..." most likely through someone on my (or your) friendslist... amazing how that happens, right!? i don't keep records--but does it matter, really!?what is this message i got about subscribing to your blog!?
it's a default message that myspace created... when i click the invite, it sends you the message... i can neither see nor edit it... BUT IT IS NOT SPAM (i don't even know how to spam...;) speaking of spam, i am looking for plantiffs to join me in a class action discrimination suit against myspace (d/b/a news corp)... the claim!? myspace only allows "white-girl spam"... so unless i start gettin' some good cocoa spam--and i mean real damn soon--tom, rupert and the boys will be hearing from my lawyers...
why should i add you--you already xxxx thousand friends!?
good question, maybe you shouldn't... most people that end up here genuinely kinda like me--so i won't need an extra therapy session because you don't "add me"... but if i found you and took the time to send a request it is only because my impression of you was such that i thought we might share a common interest or two that could be mutually beneficial... no, i can't keep up with everyone on my friends list... but i try not to ignore anyone either... so open up that narrow-ass mind a lil' bit... reading this is a GOOD start... subscribing to my blog is GREAT start...;)
so you're not tryin' to holla!?
not from a couple of camera-phone pics and three paragraphs about how you're a "real chick" or "down to earth" and "to know you is to LOVE you"... nah shawdie! you can keep your panties on... for now at least... haha! the truth is, unless i find you awe-strikingly fine (read: extraordinarily RARE), i don't usually bother with perusing through all of your pictures... but don't be too disappointed... you never know how things will work out... besides, i thought you were on here to "NETWORK"...;) haha!
why do you want me to subscribe to your blog (i don't even like poetry)!?
of course you like poetry--maybe not the kind i write... except i write all kinds... and there's more to it than poetry--i'll be posting once it's cleared... plus it makes it easier to stay in touch... but the bottom line is that subscribers give me leverage in business negotiations... so even if you don't read, subscribing is immensely helpful... please subscribe
didn't you see my blog/bulletin about _________ !?
prob'ly not... the downside of a large friendslist is that the blogs and bulletins come to fast for me to keep up but if there is something you want to bring to my attention, a note or comment does the trick...
why aren't there any dudes in your top friends!?
i really, REALLY hope that a dude isn't askin' this question 'cause... i communicate with women out of pleasure--with men out of necessity... my top friends are either business related or people that i want to keep up with easily--kinda like a visual speed dial...;)
can i be in your top friends!?
uhmmm, sure! one day--maybe...;)
*bonus*you sent me a friend request or a blog invite and i declined/ignored it--why did you send me another one!?
damn! my bad... but i REALLY don't keep records (see question 3) now if you're absolutely certain that you will never in life want to have anything to do with me then block my page and get on with your life... but if you're that convinced of my utter worthlessness then why in the hell are reading this!?THANK YOU. - MANAGEMENT
the next greats...
A Dreamer's Dream
I am the haze that reminds you
you're in another place
the gravity keeps your feet a float
a singer's note and a musician's muse
I am the call you choose to make
when you quarters are low and
you're unsure of the day you face
the reservoir where actors borrow depth
and poets find their inspirationI am the cure for your procrastination
and a detour for the road blocks
the master key to all of life's locks
a lift for your heavy load
I am the yellow brick road
and wherever your oz is
we will get there together
like the man behind the curtain
who makes dreams seem certain
even in angry weatherI am the designer's thread
a painter's palette
the poet's tongue
even a writer's pen
once you and I begin to explore
those who doubted you before
will repent their sin and doubt no moreI am what stands between the husltler and the hearse
the pimp's pocket
the hooker's purse
I am the gift and the curse
the who, the what, the how
the why and when
the right, the now
your tomorrow came todayI am everything I say and more
it is everything it seems
and everything that you conceive
to the dreamer's
not content to dream
but wake up and believe
You can read it like a poem OR you can live it--LIKE AN ANSWER...
UNTIL SOON...

If I had to put it into words I'd say:
Soulful-Eclectic-Jazz-Funk-Rock w/an Acoustic fetish...
And that STILL doesn't quite cover it...
Music is a language AND an art...
There are no genres or catagories...
It is a singular form with infinite interpretations...
And you have to interpret it, to appreciate it...
Sound is uncomplicated...
Noise is random...
Music is neither...
It is both complex and purposeful...
Intentional...
But not to make you buy it...
To make you FEEL it...
So what do I like?
Who do I listen to?
Genuis...
No point in listin' names...
If it's Genuis--I listen...
"keep up..."
