Music, relativity, reflection, pursuit, restraint, going over the top, finding out where the line is so I can move it out a little further.
Heres what I'm not interested in: pride, ego, small figurines and trinkets, hearing about your dream last night, the smell of potpourri, conformity.
Music
wilco, all things classic rock (the good stuff..) beck, Imarobot, James Hall, rage against the machine, neil Old, er, Young, Elvis costello. Hendrix, Beatles, Zep. Jethro Tull, Jeff Buckley, Taj Majal, Grateful Dead, Lowell George, SRV. Shades of Day, The Band, Elvis, Dr. John, Dylan, Emmylou, snow patrol.. yeah. I like hip hop. I kinda dig country, and I like the occasional Classical mind-massage.
Movies
spinal tap, goonies, neverending story, monster squad, rad. caddyshack. Goodfellas. Predator. Running man. Any of these ring a bell? Big trouble in little china, Napoleon dynamite. Terminator 1, 2 and 3. Big fish. sin city, a bronx tale, boogie nights, blow, LOTR, Spinal Tap (you can't really dust for vomit)
About me: The second half of this year will be spent making what will become Shades of Day's 2nd album. New songs, new sounds, new musicians and a new method of recording are going to all come together to create what we believe will be a very, very good album. Songwriting from B-Willing, arranging and playing provided by Shades of Day, recording in the Red Barn... all these things are the ingredients for music. I hope you all stay tuned, and will enjoy listening to these songs as much as we enjoy making them.
Who I'd like to meet: Slash, Dave Grohl, Ben Harper, Jamie Foxx, Chuck Lavell, Harry Nillson, BB King.
