Another Punk Ass Kid

About Me

First things first... the world is going to shit. Sooner or later our country will be attacked by the UN who collectively feel its time for our removal. So you might not wanna waste your time reading this. Still not convinced? Well, lets see. I'm 25. A very weird age. The only time I feel old is when I wake up after a night of drinking to be painfully reminded of how old my liver is. I smoke camel lights. I know I should quit, but fuck you. I've gotten every guilt trip possible from my mother. I work as a Music Supervisor for movie trailers. Meaning, if go to the movies and watch the previews chances are I found and placed the music for 1 or 2 of them. I love my job cause I love music. If someone would of told me 2 years ago I'd have a real job that I liked to wake up and come to everyday I would have kicked them in the balls for their lunch money. I sing in two punk bands. I spent three years touring and gigging with Nothing Special, but it looks like our time is coming to an end. And I just started singing in MAJORITY LOST (in my Top 8). So it looks like I'll be starting the process of punk rock's bottom rung again. Check it out:
My first born child (or my next dog, depending on how life turns out) will be named Vonnegut. If you don't get the reference please go away. I like cheese pizza and sometimes I really like eating cheese pizza and doing absolutely nothing. Most of my free time is spent playing music or going to see other people play music. I have fantastic friends, some from college (LMU) and some from home (Bellingham). We like to wallow in out respective functional misery and try to forget that no human has any fucking idea why they are alive. So stop pretending you do. I'm not a huge fan of living in L.A. But it affords me the luxury of getting paid too much for listening to music and the chance to see every free show I can get tix for. I'm a staunch liberal meaning I think gays should be allowed to go fuck themselves, that a 6 billion dollar gun industry might be a reason we have the most gun deaths in the world, that a woman shouldn't be told what to do with the one celled organism in her uterus, that killing people to make them stop hating us is stupid and organized religion (not faith or belief in God, though I don't have it) is in most cases the downfall of humanity. What I believe in most is laughter. Despite my cynicism I get the most pleasure out of making someone laugh. Laughter and music are the only explanations I could ever accept as proof of God.

My Interests

If I'm not working, practicing, or gigging I'm watching someone else perform. Spend a little too much money at the many, many night spots in L.A. Or I'm home on my couch with an acoustic watching Steve play video games.

I'd like to meet:



Fat Mike.
People that believe the human race isn't completely fucked, that their actions might make a difference, and are more concerned about creating a better planet then a better wardrobe.

Music:

NOFX, Lagwagon, Diesel Boy, MatchBook Romance, Bad Religion, Pennywise, NOFX, Punk Rock Karaoke, Alkaline Trio, Social Distortion, The Matches, Bouncing Souls, Rise Against, Rancid, AFI, Over It, Less Than Jake, and a shit load more.

Movies:

I go see pretty much everything that looks remotely good. I love horror movies. Up until his recent spout of complete insanity, Mel Gibson was my favorite actor. I'm pissed that my mom made me Half-jewish, cause now I have to hate him.

Books:

Kurt Vonnegut, nuff said, I've read every single one of his books, hes a genious (and Im not because I mispelled the word, why not go back and change it you ask? Cause that would be a misrepresentation of myself. Myself being an idiot. Tom Robbins, a wide variety of non-fiction liberal propaganda line my book shelves.

Heroes:

That Fat dude in office space who invents the Jump to Conclusions mat. "It's a mat with different conclusions, that you can jump to"
