Guitars and anything Guitar related. I'm a gearhead. Stuff I use; a Gibson flying v and a Gibson les paul, a Marshall JCM 2000 TSL 100 Through a Marshall JCM900 1960B 4x12 cab, a Boss noise suppressor and tuner, Monster cables, Dunlop jazz III picks, and Ernie Ball skinny top heavy bottom strings.
Music
Anthrax, Metallica, Pantera, Megadeth, Prong, Suicidal, Testament, Mastodon, BLS, System of a down, Clutch and anything else with good heavy guitar riffing. I also like Zeppelin, Hendrix, Floyd, The Doors, Stevie Ray, Clapton and many other blues, classic rock and metal bands.
Movies
Oh brother where art thou, A Christmas story, The big Lebowski, Old school, Talladega nights or anything else with Will Farrel
Television
The Simpsons, Family guy, American Dad, King of the hill, South Park, Aqua teen hunger force and Metalocalypse.
Books
I'll read about anything, and the list of books I have read would be too long to put here. At the moment I'm trying to read the Lord of the rings series and I'm not enjoying them. I got through The Hobbit but it was excruciating. I think I hate Hobbits.
Heroes
Mom, Dad, and (no surprise to anyone who knows me) my brother Matt. Musically speaking I would have to say James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett, Dimebag, Scott Ian, Zakk Wylde, Dave Mustaine, Jerry Cantrell, David Gilmore, Stevie Ray, and again, my brother.
About me: I'm a guitar fiend. I beat the hell out of one in my band Dragdown check us out on myspace @ Dragdown1. Other than that I live for family and friends, My Wife Samantha (the love of my life) and our daughter Tierra. I love bow hunting, archery (traditional and modern), fishing and camping. I've also been a snowboarder for over 20 years. Things I have no love for are racism, ignorance, and the idea that a musical style someone doesn't like is somehow invalid. There is no good or bad, just personal preference. There are too many different types of people in this world for just one kind of music.
Who I'd like to meet: Other musicians, and fans of live music. I respect anyone who gets up on a stage and throws down like they mean it.

Just dropping by to let all of our friends know that the recording is going great at Megatone Studios. Paul Schluter has once again exceeded all of our expectations, and this CD will prove it. We also signed on with an independent label out of Los Angeles, CA... "Go DiY Records". Go DiY is a label made up of musicians, for musicians, and we're confident that they will get FFR to the masses.
We hope to see you at our CD release show, November 21 @ The Annex in Madison.
Need an electrogimp and Bassist.Check out the songs on our page. We are planning on possibly playing the first 2 tracks on our player and then writing the rest of the set to eventually play out. 1 day a week is all we can commit so far. If things start picking up then more time may be required. We are leaning on a more Trippy haunting and scary direction for the new material.Bass rig and PA provided. We jam on the Northside of Madtown. Thanks for reading all this eh! Tracy Kastner/VOX
