I also do a little acting and modeling, but I'm not going to post anymore self promoting links... Even I have to draw the line at some point.
My current profile song is NOT a representation of my band, we intentionally set out to make a goofy/spooky Halloween song using The Munster's TV theme song with a Mansonesqe vibe b/c there just aren't enough cool Halloween songs out there. If you'd like a free mp3 of the song send me your email address, otherwise you'll have to wait until this time next year to year it again.
I love art and incorperating it into every aspect of my life, from my clothes and music to my cars and home decore. I'm into a lot of things, but unfortunately there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day to accommodate everything. Other than my music and comedy I like to work on cars, run, bike, hang out at the beach, and at bars, but not bars at the beach. I enjoy building model cars, playing my acoustic guitar, and driving way too fast on curvy roads in my hot rod. I have a lot of interest in politics, and I'm pretty far to the left of things. I'm very self analytical, and realize that I'm a little self absorbed...among other things. I've done lots of crazy things in my life that could've gotten me killed or locked up, but since I was lucky enough for that not to have happend I have a lot of great stories, or so I'm told. I'm definitely a romantic, but also not one of those people that base my happiness on other people, so you see being a total narcosis has its advantages :)
Who I'd like to meet:
I like meeting all types of interesting characters, this is one of the great things about living in Hollywood. Obviously I get along well with people who are into the rock scene, hot rods, and who appreciate a prolific dick joke. I'd like to meet people with a passion for life, and those who are fearless. I feel really lucky to have a handful of amazing people in my life, but then again I have another hand that could use a few more.
Everyone is doing good, kids are growing like weeds. How about yourself? I think we are getting ready to move to Australia, so that should be interesting. Calvin went there a couple of weeks back due to business and loved it! He described it as a nation of alcoholics under control so we should have no problem fitting in :) I'll keep you updated on that one.
Your fashion get-up must've hit the perfect note! I'm okay, just trying to keep my head on straight while I get a million things done pre-thanks, including maybe get a lit rep etc. and while continuing to do mundane tasks like organize my surroundings.
