Thanks for everyone understanding that I needed to take some time out for myself since I left the Edge. After six years of working my ass off there I had to move on 'cause it was dragging me down.
It's been great to see so many of you coming to HYBRID Fridays, POP ROCKS!, and TATTOO Rock Parlour from my former live-to-air locations and seeing more of you every week.
Thanks to all of you over the year for your thoughts, care, and encouragement to returning to places that I love and call home every week.
TATTOO Rock Parlour Every Friday!
POP ROCKS! Saturdays at The Annex Wreckroom
Other than the music in my life....
- proud Canadian (we live in the greatest country in the world)
- been practising Wing Chun Kung Fu/Chi Kung since mar.97, also instruction
- have a killer Star Wars toy collection
- been skatin' (boarding that is) for 23 years. not longboarding... they're like planked wheechairs for middle-aged guys trying to be young and cool. poseurs. only you lifestyle longboarders have my respect
- snowboarding. I try to make it to Whistler every year
- Buddhism
- hockey. playing it and watching it (fuckin' right if your Canadian)
- smokin' a nice one
- walkin'
- my new 2006 Subaru Impreza 2.5 RS. i'll never own another make of car 'cause it's SIC!
- Bombay Sapphire
- playing with the band
- raised in Cayman Brac as a child
- of Italian/West Indian descent
- speak Italian/English/French fluently. why did I list English... 'cause not many people know how to use the fucking language properly! how many "likes" can you put in one sentence and think I understand what the fuck you're talking about?
- humanitarianism
- bluntness
- vinyl library of 3,000 pieces
- cd library of 7,000 pieces
- tattooed, and well
- owned two '78 Honda CB750 motorcylces
- Scrabble. and hardcore too. when we play, we play hardcore
- The Simpsons. not the last couple of seasons 'cause even when the episodes showed promise, they still sucked
- Law & Order. McCoy and Schiff get it done
- keep friends that actually know what it means to be one
- Chinese loose-leaf tea
Things I don't like.....
- George W. Bush
- liver
- onions.... unless they're green onions
- soap operas. and parents think video games are bad for your sense of reality
- bedroom djs. stop wasting my time with who you know and do something
- technology. for something that's supposed to make life easier, it really breaks my balls
- country music. the old Hank Williams Jr./Johnny Cash stuff is great though.
- UGG boots
- egomaniacs. no one cares.
- cold weather. give it to me hot!
- reality tv. I can't believe people can't see the blatant contradiction in terms
- messy roommates
- people who don't wash their hands when they go to the bathroom
- perception. if you can't be honest, you're hiding something
- racists
- ignorance.
