Fire Mama's Interests
General
Fire Fire Fire! Music: seeing live shows and adoring the social scene that it can create. I love big festivals and small music gatherings. I play music for work almost every day - great gig! Traveling: National, international, I don't care. Bring it on. I love to camp or stay in beautiful hotels, I'm not picky. I've been a lot of places, but always want to see more! Mostly I love visiting my friends, all over the world. Art: I love a good art show, and try to buy art as often as I can. I love to support the locals: musicians, artists, theatres, other businesses - screw the big corporate screws. Other than that, I'm mostly interested in things that are purple and shiny.

About me: I'm a musical, artistic, energetic, educated, creative, interesting, fire spinning, aggressive, sensitive, experienced, and diverse individual who also happens to be a Music Therapist, Volunteer Coordinator, and Director of Therapeutic Recreation at a health care center. I'm busy. I have alot going on. Very much of it is social activity, quite often involving music. I love to festival, travel, and party till dawn. That's me, I suppose.

"In the early days all I hoped was to make a living out of what I did best. But, since there's no real market for masturbation I had to fall back on my bass playing abilities."
~ Les Claypool
Who I'd like to meet: Freaky people. Lovely people. Crazy people. Wonderful people. Inspiring people. Motivated people. Artistic people. Traveling people. Adventurous people. LOTS of people! (I'd say Les Claypool, but I already met him - twice!)
Stranger than this fire spinning monkey, is the "Money for Nothin" soundtrack. What kind of festival is this?!? What is going on here? What is that man saying? Possible translation: Spin that flaming staff, monkey! Spin it! Spin it! Spin it! Boombalina, boombalina. Yes, yes, yes! Ahhhh.
