Too many to mention, not enough actively participating in.
Music
Plenty. Just a few for now: TV on the Radio, Deerhunter, Millionaire, Can, !!!, Magnetic Fields, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Bill Evans, Pixies, and Herbie Hancock.
Movies
Not in any particular order of importance: Danny Deckchair, Waking life, Seven Samurai, Royal Tenenbaums, Dead Poet's Society, Station Agent, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and Confidence.
Television
Give me TV from my youth I say! Good times, Sanford and Son, and Wild, Wild West.
Books
Fiction: Any book from Daniel Quinn. Nonfiction: World Atlas.
Heroes
Those people throughout history that laugh at the ridiculous and have the courage to do so.
About me: Thought-full of it! Some would say. I do not take myself that seriously but have been known to be taken with my serious self, usually with a chuckle. One thing I must confess is that I really like dynamic people - Those people whose personalities are challenging while still very much engaging. Clearly a slick world we live in, so, let's get moist!
BTW- Feeling good in the neighborhood of Asheville these days as I have started playing some tunes again! YAHOO!
My good buddy, Jason Daniello, has provided some great songs for a few of us to work on. The few and the proud also include: Jason's wife, Liz, and our mutual partner
in crime Clayton Jones.
THE BROOMSTARS include:
Jason Daniello, Vocals and Guitars
Jared White, Bass Guitar and Synthesizers
Liz LeBleu, Synthesizers and Vocals
Clayton Jones, Drums and Percussion
Suffice to say, the fun we are having with noise is picking apart the very fiber of laziness. Watch out!
Who I'd like to meet: Isabella Rosselini, Timothy Leary, Dali Llama, Miles Davis and Eddie Izzard for a panel discussion on "How to take back the world from Walmart and the like."
