About me: I like to spend lots of time with my son and my wife. Going places and doing stuff. Hiking, riding bicycle, exploring museums. I really like playing music and I’ve got so many good friends that I get together with (not often enough) to play music with. Don’t perform much or play in bands anymore (too much trouble) but I still play a lot of music. A lot more acoustic music styles these days, most particularly that Old-Time Fiddle music. I'll still get the electric guitar out and play some punk and some rock and some rock and some punk and some blues, etc... just wish I could find some guitar, bass and/or drummer players who'd like to get together and play some of that stuff once and awhile.
Who I'd like to meet: I'm still waiting for Rachel Nagy to send me a friend request or a message.
Oh, yay! Thank you for friending up! I'll try not to make you sorry. :)
It was really great meeting you yesterday! Thanks for the gift for my son and for figuring out that we hadn't lost the Lego piece. We'd still be out there looking if not for you.
Must be the only way you can get PC time huh? I don't blame you really...I'd tie her up too. Hehehehe. Mick tries to get me to do yard work..but I feign allergies and have an asthma attack right before his eyes. Turning blue usually works.
