Sounds Like
Sounds like a girl and a guitar and some baggage trailing behind her. Sounds like she's got green eyes but they're really blue. Sounds like she's put up with a lot of shit to get to where she is, and she's not afraid to sing about it. Sounds like someone has a lot of time on her hands. Sounds like a soul that's freed itself of the bondage of pain by dispensing it into her songs so that she can walk free and in peace.
Greetings! I decided to do this because it's easier than busking... I have been playing guitar for a few years, and writing songs for almost that long. I have intentions of recording an album as soon as I can find the time and the resources. I sometimes show up unannounced at Galactic Pizza and Balls Cabaret for open mic, and opened for Matthew Hope at the Acadia last year.
I'm glad you're here.
Why can't I be both a "band" and a "person"? I suppose that I'm not trying to use this as a "Dating Site" so that's a moot point, for "Dating Site's" are a form of evil to me, and my past experience with them proves it. Not that I need that right now anyways, I'm doing pretty good over here and I have no plans to change my relationship situation anytime soon. I does give me pause because I wonder if it means I have to start writing positive love songs now, or does performing the depressing songs send out negative energy to the person I'm with? I sure hope not... that's the last thing I want... But from what I understand, positive poppy love songs sell! I could sell out! Just like Roger Daltrey in a bathtub full of beans! Anyways... I'm going to put the stats below that you would normally find on an individual Myspace type of a page:
Status: In a Relationship Here For: Because everyone seems to be here Orientation:Straight HometownMinneapolis (originally Orange, CA) Zodiac Sign:Leo Smoke/Drink: No/No Children: No, but thanks for playing Education:College Dropout Occupation:Corporate Damage Control Income:Enough
Media Stuff: I don't watch TV. I like to go to the movies, I like to go to the movies by myself predominantly because it doesn't require that I get my ear talked off during the movie. I Like Star Trek and Monty Python and Harry Potter and Quentin Tarantino and Kevin Smith and concert films. I really like concert films. I have been reading a lot of metaphysical stuff lately.
I would like to learn to play slide, but at present, my slide capabilities are not very impressive. I can fingerpick though, so I have that going for me, which is nice.
