I am here for Friends

About Me

Tall bespectacled dedicated fan of loud, noisy, out-of-the-ordinary music, alternative media, classic beer styles, classic TV reruns, and politics. Love The Onion. Love the City Paper. Love Sullivan’s Island. Very much dislike the Bush folks and their catastrophic behavior and policies. Got plenty of on-the-clock food-makin’ and servin’ under the belt. Got plenty of gigs played. Got three vintage drum kits, a Fender bass, a black Dan Electro guitar, and half an amp. Plaid button-down shirts aplenty. Nearsighted. Harmlessly sarcastic. Supposedly hard of hearing (although everyone I know seems to mumble). Overly polite. Sometimes clueless. Underly urban. Missing the good ones in Athens, Georgia. Diggin’ the oddballs on the coast. Totally wired. Always worried. Got my Mojo working.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Diligent and humor-filled local musicans and bands, decent-minded clubowners and barkeeps, clever radio personalities and do-gooders. And Johnny Bench, Chrissie Hynde, Christopher Hitchens, Peter Falk, Pam Dawber, Martha Quinn, Lux Interior, Billy Gibbons, Colin Quinn, Bruce Foxton, Peter Erskine, Julia Sweeney, Yogi Berra, and Colin Newman.
