   contrabassboy's Blurbs
About me:
I'm a bass player. Also play guitar and a tiny bit of keyboard. I do database work, programming, web development, and other computer-related work for a living.

Free downloads at my bands' profiles:
ziusudra
Mugley's Other

I'm a songwriter of sorts, but not much of a lyricist. So if you can sing and write lyrics, I'm considering collaborating..

I'm into jazz, alternative, RnB, classical, etc, except, of course, country (rare exceptions.. I just find it boring).

My development skills: SQL Server, ASP, ASP.NET, C sharp, VB.NET, Access, etc., so holla atcha nerd!

-> This super-nifty profile was edited with my 2 hands <-
You Are 26 Years Old
26
Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.
Who I'd like to meet:
Betty Crocker, Aunt Jemima, Mavis Beacon.. (Mavis is hot!)  ;-)

Also, Donna Richardson, Craig Ferguson, John Farrar, Natalie Cole, Stacey Dash, and Robin Guthrie. Everyone on my music list (<-- over there).
