ABOUT ME

I'm a laid back, happy person and enjoy experiencing new things whenever possible. Life is too short to spend it trapped inside wasting your time with TV or working a shit job to make money.

PHILOSOPHY

Live life in the moment and make the best of your situation. Spread love to all, especially when you don't expect any in return.

Music: All types of music have good artists; music simply needs passion, whether relaxed or intense. I play a variety of instruments, mostly acoustic ones such as the banjo, saw, washboard, guitar, etc. and really enjoy learning to play new instruments. My musical tastes are all over the place; I don't like to discriminate until Ive taken the time to to actively listen to it.

Styles of music: folk, bluegrass, punk, metal, gypsy, blues, klezmer, jazz, big band, hip-hop, old R&B, classic rock, world music, etc.

Stoneking, Choking Victim, De La Soul, Dead Kennedys, Devil Makes Three, Dirty Three, Django Reinhardt, Doc Watson, The Doors, Duke Ellington, Electric Wizard, Elizabeth Cotton, Frank Zappa, Fugazi, GBH, Gorillaz, Hank Williams, John Fahey, Johnny Cash, Joy Division, King Crimson, King Khan, Leonard Cohen, Mac Demarco, Meat Puppets, Melvins, Mischief Brew, Morphine, Neil Young, Neutral Milk Hotel, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds, Nirvana, Notorious BIG, Nujabes, Old Crow Medicine Show, Operation Ivy, Otis Redding, Pavement, Pink Floyd, Pixies, Ray Charles, Ravi Shankar, The Roots, Shlohmo, Shuggie Otis, Sleep, Smashing Pumpkins, Sonic Youth, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Talking Heads, Television, Tinariwen, Tom Waits, Tortoise, Townes Van Zandt, A Tribe Called Quest, Velvet Underground, Violent Femmes, Wu-Tang, .357 String Band, etc
