My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I dunno. People. But sometimes the more people I meet, the more I like my cats. Most certainly would love to see Eden again...

Music:

I am a huge fan of blues, old school soul, some modern soul, rock & roll, some rock, just about any kind of music as long as it's honest music; I love to read biographies of some of the musical greats. I just got a copy of Guralnik's Sam Cooke and just finished a history of Sun records.

Movies:

I love a good whodunit. I also love cult classics, from Last Tango in Paris to Stranger Than Paradise. A good western is always fun. Okay, I also sink pretty low to the Blues Brothers...and Animal House. Sorry.

Television:

Pretty thin this. I've become of fan of The Shield, The Daily Show, South Park, Reno 911, Sarah Silverman Program, almost any baseball game, some football, some soccer, and most anything music.

Books:

Biographies and histories of musicans seem to fascinate me the most these days.

Heroes:

Franz Kafka. Clarence Gatemouth Brown. Johnny Shines. Phillip Walker. Oskar Kokoschka. Bettye LaVette. Candi Staton. Mavis Staples. Terry Evans.
