Eric I'm so stoked to be part of the big-ass HearGallery & HangTheDJs party this Sat. It's gonna be ill. Get info @ http://ericvaldezart.comPosted at 3:49 AM Oct 1 from Twitter view more
Aside from painting; I also really enjoy music, catching up on my sleep, collecting records, going to concerts, getting drunk with friends at a club and shaking that ass and watching movies.
By the way, I tend to be a smart ass and I also think I'm funnier than I really am. That kind of bugs some people, but fuck 'em if they can't take a joke.

Words to live by: "I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day." -Frank Sinatra
“Alcohol may be man's worst enemy, but the bible says 'love your enemy'.” -Frank Sinatra
“Basically, I'm for anything that gets you through the night - be it prayer, tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels.” -Frank Sinatra
“The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind.” -Humphrey Bogart
“You're not drunk if you can lie on the floor without holding on.” -Dean Martin
Who I'd like to meet: People with similar interests, anyone that will drive so I can get drunk for a change, Christina Ricci (I could have met her but I was too into watching Head Automatica at Spaceland to notice that she was standing right behind me the entire time. FUCK!), Prince, Dave Chappelle, Snoop Dogg, Conan O'Brien, and Morrissey. I'd also like to me the guys in the "Heroes" section that I haven't already met, who aren't dead, and who aren't fictional: Paul Simonon, Robert Smith, Simon Gallup, Greg Graffin, Dave Vanian, and John Cusack.
