About me

I love music, I like almost all kinds, except death metal, black metal, and all that crap. I'm sure it's technically difficult, but as long as it's a pain in the backside to listen to, it's none of my interest. I've recently gotten into jazz, whereas Wes Montgomery and Grant Green are my biggest influences. The music I listen to varies from mood to mood. I also like to play basketball, but don't judge me, I don't listen to rap/hip-hop. At least, not from the new school. I take guitar lessons every friday, my teacher is a professional jazz guitarist, so maybe he's the one that inspired me. I love music theory, I can sit down with a theory book (with a guitar on my lap, of course) for hours and just let it all sink in. I'm kind of a guitar geek, if that's the way to put it. I can practice for hours on ONE thing without stopping till I get it right. Right now I'm actually practicing sweep picking, but don't worry; I have realized that this can take months, even years, to get right. I also watch a lot of The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad, Two and a Half Men, King of Queens, Seinfeld, and so on. Even though it might sound like I don't have time, I try to get good grades at school. My mock exams went out pretty well, my grades were mostly 5's, which are B's in american, I think. And still, I'm not content. My friends mean a lot to me. I hate it when I tell something to someone, and two days later I hear it from another guy. I need to be able to trust people. My parents are divorced, so I stay one week at my mom's, and one week at my dad's, and so on. I think that describes me pretty much.

My bands and projects
We don't have a name yet
Basically, it's me, a friend of mine that plays bass, another friend of mine who plays drums, and the vocalist is my friend, too, but he's moving soon. Our first gig was at the school prom (my school), and we're going to play at our bassist's (and drummer's) school prom in the beginning of 2008. We generally play funk-inspired rock, funk and classic rock.
