Jalapeno Drums's Interests
General
Jalapeno Drums is interested in providing the finest quality drums that money can buy, whilst maintaining sound ethical and environmentally conserving practices.
Personally I like cooking great food (especially curries), drinking great beer and wine, snowboarding and playing drums. Mostly I like hanging out with my friends, family, and cat and dog.
Music
I appreciate all high-quality music, and can admire people's talents and recognise their appeal to others, without necessarily liking their style of music. (Please note, the one true exception to this simply has to be Opera! It is elitist, excruciatingly painful to endure, requires excessive financial support raised from the hard earned tax money of regular people to enable a few rich snobs indulge their musical passions, and has a history of physical mutilation to create mutant performers! Rant over!)
Bands I love to hear and see include: The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Devin Townsend/Strapping Young Lad, Duke Special, Primus, Fishbone, Pitchshifter, Sick Of It All, Fire Fly, P.O.D., Suicidal Tendencies, Yfriday, King's X, Galactic Cowboys, Bob Mould, Becky Higg, Jane's Addiction, MxPx and Hayseed Dixie.
Movies
So I Married An Axe Murder, Shawshank Redemption, Bill and Ted, The Usual Suspects, Wayne's World, Corpse Bride, Twelve Monkeys, Green Mile, Big Fish, Sleepy Hollow, Time Bandits, Shaun of the Dead, Big Wednesday, Lord of the Rings, Hannibal Brooks, Pirates of the Carribean, Tideland, The adventures of Baron Munchausen.
Television
Black Books, Peter Kay's Phoenix Night's, Max and Paddy, Spaced, Nevermind the Buzzcocks, Q.I., Have I Got New for You, Vic and Bob, Fast Show, Scrubs, Home Improvement, Swiss Toni, and Murun Buchstansangur.
Books
Peter Kay's "The Sound of Laughter", C.S. Lewis's Cosmic Trilogy, Arthur Daley's Guide To Doing It Right, The Little Book of Calm.
Heroes
Paolo Friere, Saul Allinsky, Antonio Gramsci, Nelson Mandella, Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer, and Jesus Christ.
About me:
Hi there!
Thanks for checking out my MySpace page. It's here to keep you up to date and informed with what's going on with both Jalapeno Drums and with my music career. Expect to see adverts for bargain stock clearance drums and kits, as well as news of fourthcoming events I'll be appearing at.
It's nice to be on-board here at MySpace: I hope you like me being here!
David.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone who respects people, respects themselves, and respects the planet we live on. I've already met many of the people I admire and hold in high esteem, from famous drummers like Buddy Rich and Louis Belson, to religious leaders, rockstars, and politicians. But I most like to meet ordinary people who become great friends.
Friday July 4th, BPP return with their highly anticipated new EP Transposition. The Launch for the will be taking place at Bicester Football Club with support from Ignited, Rising From Death and Iionix
