The first thing you need to know is that I grew up listening to a Zenith short wave radio my grandfather gave to me as a child. I love International alternative music and also have a habit of traveling to Europe when my heart grows fond. I've been to Greece and am now visiting the UK on a very regular basis. I play a left handed bass guitar and have fits trying to conquer my 1920's accordion. I will make music someday... That I can promise you.

Television
Television... say it 3 times in a row and it sounds like some defunct cable service. Do people still use these things? Mine just sits like an antique in my living room.
Books
George Orwell (June 25, 1903 to January 21, 1950)
"The majority of pacifists either belong to obscure religious sects or are simply humanitarians who object to taking life and prefer not to follow their thoughts beyond that point. But there is a minority of intellectual pacifists, whose real though unacknowledged motive appears to be hatred of western democracy and admiration for totalitarianism. Pacifist propaganda usually boils down to saying that one side is as bad as the other, but if one looks closely at the writing of the younger intellectual pacifists, one finds that they do not by any means express impartial disapproval but are directed almost entirely against Britain and the United States" … (Orwell 1945 "Notes on Nationalism")
About me: Hello. My name is Casey and I started this myspace page in 2004 for the simple purpose of finding new music. Since that time, I have met some wonderful people, traveled to Europe (Greece & UK) a few times and am preparing myself for another visit. I currently live in the Central Business District of downtown Cincinnati, Ohio. I recently moved here and love it endlessly. If you are curious, please visit google.com and enter "4casey4" for a good laugh and some insight. I just so happen to run a little music blog that you might also find entertaining.
