I'll play bass if I want to

About Me

MUSIC IS MY DRUG OF CHOICE and my therapy. I play bass guitar. I play the bass because I enjoy music and the sound of the bass so I try to learn the songs I like. I am not able to use my hands like you are suppose to so I do a lot of sliding here and there. Yes, I AM IN A BAND, my age? Oh well... I'm old enough to know a BS'er when I see one. I've worked in the film industry for a long time. I'm lucky to have such cool life experiences. I have a great family, small but mighty. They mean the world to me. My daughter and grandson are my greatest accomplishments.

My Interests

Many interests! Music, playing bass and acoustic guitar. Playing with my new grandson and teaching him to sing since I can't. Watching my husband play drums. Living on a ranch, living in the city, interesting people, computers, I like playing drums however I am a spastic at it, family, training horses, shooting pop cans with my BB gun, snow skiing though I suck, water skiing though I suck, fishing (catch and release of course), riding dirtbikes though I don't have one, 4-wheeling on a quad though I rarely get to, hiking, the outdoors...just about anything you can think of that isn't dark!

I'd like to meet:

Victor Wooten, Flea, Brad Walst, Pino Palladino, Geddy Lee (LOVE RUSH) just to name a few.... Other musicians, bands, people who can inspire me to become a better bass player of course. And last but certainly not least, I look forward THE MOST to meeting is Jesus!

Music:

Well, I like music where the bass playing is outstanding!!! Velvet Revolver, Porcupine Tree, RUSH, Pantera, Floater, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rocco Deluca and The Burden, Avenged Sevenfold, Nickleback ( the harder stuff ), Tool, A Perfect Circle, Alice in Chains, Chevelle, Damage Plan ???, Megadeath, 3 Doors Down, 3 Days Grace, Incubus, Linkin Park, Disturbed, Sherwood, AC/DC, Third Day, Evanescence, Stone Sour, Seether, Shinedown, Queen, Psalm 91, Supertramp (yes really...), COC, blues, Ryan Shaw, Sonicflood, rock, funk. Most all of the Myspace Friends' bands, Audioslave, I could go on and on here, but just heavy stuff, light stuff, good bass songs. Always music with a message, good or bad, but lyrics that mean something to the writer...

Movies:

None, I worked in movies so long, I don't ever watch them.

Television:

Grey's Anatomy, The Office, Scrubs, and Earl.

Books:

What's So Amazing About Grace

Heroes:

Anyone who has lived with a serious illness with grace, positivity, and hope. Maybe with a bit of humor in there as well. My parents who taught me how to love unconditionally. My daughter who has always loved me unconditionally and is much smarter than me so I'll have someone to do my taxes when I get older. And last but not least, Jesus, who died for me so that I could live and enjoy what life offers, and when life is tough, I know he really does "know how you feel" and comforts me. They are all my heros!

My Blog

Ouch, yes it is my birthday....

Well, I am closer to 100 years old.  But it is getting easier, the older you get, the less you care about the stupid stuff. Or, could it be, the less you REMEMBER the stupid stuff.  Like som...
