About Me
I'm a very fun loving person. I like being around good people that have the welfare of others at heart. I enjoy a few hobbies of which photography( Nikon's Rule! Check out their ratings at www.cnet.com and compare them to Canon, Pentax, and Olympus you'll be surprised! However I do like the Canon Rebel T1i, and the Olympus E-30! Check them out...) and music are the most prominent. I've been taking photo's since about 1980, and love to print my own photo's. I play the guitar, and love progressive metal, neo-classical metal, rock, jazz, R&B, Hip Hop, and Rap. I'm starting to play again, and practice time is hard to come by. I'm currently a big Rusty Cooley( He's a bad #*&@!) fan, and you can go to his page from my friends list, so check him out! I have always loved Music, especially the guitar. I've been playing the guitar for sometime throughout my life, more at times than others. I'm currently getting back to the music, and trying to practice as much as possible. I love intricate, fast note runs, and strong scorching melodies, passages, and very expressive songs.

I also own the following amps.: 1 JSX Head, 1 Johnson Millineum 150 combo, 1 Vox AD30VTXL( Killer tone!), and 1 Line 6 Flextone 3 amplifier. I'd like to get a Marshall JCM 2000 TSL 100 head as my next Amplifier. Shred is not dead! My favorit singer's are Luther Vandross, Babyface, Mariah Carey, CeCe Penniston, The Christianaires, and Keyshia Cole. I also love anything to do with computers. Although I'm not that well versed concerning the software end, I'm very much into the hardware.
