When I'm not concocting some sort of musical cacophany in the Music Womb, I'm playing an occasional gig with a couple pals at Rusillo's Italian restaurant in Yakavegas (if you like pizza and gelato and haven't gone there, then get off your collective arses and GO)...and when I'm not doing THAT, I'm listening to music. I also like to draw weird cartoons about anything and anyone that strikes my fancy. I like to write stuff (mostly opinions on stuff I don't like, with the occasional psuedo-intelligent observation...most of which you will read here). I'm also very interested in my ever-smiling goofy awesome girlfriend Julie. If you don't know her, you need to! Um, let's see...my family is very important to me as I'm important to them. I enjoy hanging out with friends, driving around, blasting loud music, entertaining people, being entertained by people, and...whatnot! I'll add more later when I can think of more shtuff.
I'd like to sit Jesus Christ, Buddha, and Allah down at a big roundtable and ask them all to do some explaining.
I classify music into three genres: Music I Like, Music I Don't Like, Music I Haven't Heard. I appreciate any kind of music that can evoke some sort of mood or atmosphere, is groundbreaking in its respective genre, is awesomely original...or is just plain good songwriting. From the Beatles to Zeppelin, George Jones to Hank Jr., Mr. Bungle to John Zorn, Meshuggah to Slayer, I like it all.
I'm not a big movie watcher, but I think "This is Spinal Tap" would have to be my favorite movie of all time.
It's a rare occasion for me to sit down and watch the tube. If I had to pick some favorite shows, though, they'd have to be the X-files, King of the Hill, Drew Carey, Seinfeld, CSI, the Wheel, Jeopardy, old campy 80's cartoons and sitcoms, old re-runs like Knight Rider and Magnum P.I., and anything with Colin Mochrie or Ryan Stiles.
I enjoy reading, even if I can't seem to find the time to sit down and do it! Books I seem to always go back and read snippets of: the Bible, The Working Stiff's Manifesto by Iain Levison, The Big Bamboo by Tim Dorsey, Hammer of the Gods by Stephen Davis. I'm currently reading A Man in Full by Tom Wolfe.
