Steve's Interests
General
Music, Podcasts, Podcasting, Guitar, Mandolin, Steel Guitar, Canoing, Recording, Philosophy, Real Estate, Antique Cars, Trains, and more... I made a little video of me playing the slide guitar and here it is...
Music
Who I like changes, develops and generally morphs every day. If you want to know what bands are doing it for me this week check out the latest episode of Fraught With Innuendo, www.fwi.podshow.com Overall my favorite styles may include elements of Blues, Jazz, Pop, Rock, Classical and more.
Movies
The Warriors, The Maltese Falcon, Star Wars, The Pink Panther, The Dirty Dozen... There are tons of movies I have enjoyed but I am not generally fanatical about it... Most seem good at the time but are not all that memorable but I like pop corn.
Television
I need to record my guitar parts, nothing on TV is important. If I am to tired for playing music I will change the channels until I fall asleep.
Books
Philosophy and Fiction
Heroes
You saw who I would like to meet but they are not my heroes...
My heroes are the Fire fighters and solders that put there life on the line every day. My heroes are the few teachers that truly have a passion for molding the minds of our youth and do so without a political agenda and my heroes are my kids who are doing a great job of growing up in a much more dangerous world than I did.
I'm Steve, guitarist for Ardent Octopus and the producer for our podcasts, www.ardentoctopus.podshow.com The show is a musical journey into the minds that make Ardent Octopus. A place to showcase and develop new music and ideas.
“We play our music we edit and we don't edit. We laugh we reminisce and we look to the future. Mostly, we entertain ourselves and if others are entertained in the process then perhaps we are not alone.”
I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
Ardent Octopus podcast is here! The core of the old band is still together and still writing music. After twenty years of distractions we are focusing on the music once again. This time technology and the internet make it possible to do things we never dreamed of before.
Mission Statement :
“We play our music we edit and we don't edit. We laugh we reminisce and we look to the future. Mostly, we entertain ourselves and if others are entertained in the process then perhaps we are not alone.”
We do a second show called Fraught With Innuendo at www.fwi.podshow.com That show is mostly me just playing other peoples great music that strikes me as special. All the music I play is either independent artists, with permission or podsafe music... so I need not worry about copy write restrictions. Anyway I have found such a wealth of talented unsigned artists that it will blow your mind. Independent in no way means not as good.
Come here more from this artist on episode #21 of Fraught With Innuendo www.fwi.podshow.com
Who I'd like to meet: I would like to meet any of the Beatles, Eric Clapton, Hendrix, Gary Brooker, Robert Johnson and Bach...
That's just a few, some living some dead. I could keep going but you get the idea.
I have met Zappa, Santana, Sinatra, Stevie Ray Vaughn and a bunch more but those days are gone... But I do have some good stories.
