About me: Well, let's see...
I'm a very open-minded, intelligent, guy. I can be a bit shy at times, but I'm also not afraid to speak my mind, if the situation calls for it. It's a bit of a dichotomy, I know, but it keeps me interesting. I have a really sarcastic, dry sense of humor, which gets me into trouble sometimes. I'm definitely a realist and have a very zen view on life. I'm a musician and a songwriter, so I guess you could say I'm fairly creative. Music, literature, art and film are the big passions in my life, and I have very diverse tastes. "Pathologically eclectic" might be a good way to describe it. I tend to like things that are off the beaten path, a bit left of the center. I'm very well read and have a strange fascination with pop culture. You know, that whole train wreck, I want to look away but I can't thing. I'm incredibly bad at writing about myself, so I won't bore you any more, but if there's anything else you'd like to know, don't hesitiate to ask.
Who I'd like to meet: Artists, musicians, writers, film makers, photographers, etc. Anyone with a creative impulse, as well as people who appreciate art of all kinds.
Nice meeting you too. Thanks again for the ride home last night. It was greatly appreciated, although we might have been able to catch a ride with the 19 year old girls, or the underage brigade, as I like to call them.
Thanks for the friendship Love is light, it makes you see things
Nor Mozart, Charlie Parker or Jimmy Hendrix had such an instrument at their disposition! All music we know is made on instruments we know. New weapons generate killings, new musical instruments generate.... Can’t wait for people like you to start exploring the Kelstone. Jan Van Kelst
Hey Stranger! What have you been up to? I moved back to zelie so we're no longer neighbors that never visit each other. I think I might go to a show in Butler next weekend though and thought you might be going.
