    Kenny Grow-House-Key's Interests
GeneralMusic.
Other than music, I love Video Games, or at least used to.

Books (history, theology, fiction, poetry, philosophy, politics, it doesnt matter as long as its a good read,) Watching obscure cartoons, writing music, enjoying a nice meal, or just being flatout silly.
Oh, i also want to change the World. I still think its a beautiful, wonderful place. Life is precious and wonderful. And may i be Damned if i don't help protect it.
MusicI like a lot of music. Then again, i hate a lot of music too, but i would never consider it music: It's purely organized sounds, hawked to the masses for consumption.
I like music.
MoviesI like a lot of movies.
TelevisionI like a lot of cartoons off of adult swim (though there are a few that are just Awful. FUnny enough, those particular shows are live action, so i guess they don't count; they aren't cartoons...), documentaries. Thats about it. i think.
BooksReally enjoyed The Shining, America by Dave Stewart, Lies And The Lying Liar's Who Tell Them, the Psalms, The Autobiography of Sammy Davis Jr., Theories of Personality, anything Chomsky, Ray Bradbury, Tolkien, Ghost Wars... I like reading. just started reading (again) The Art of War, and Upton Sinclair's The Jungle. Fnu..
HeroesMom, Dad, Step Mom, Step Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, Grandma flip side (RIP), the rest of my family, Louis "Coco" Carlo, Obed Calvaire, Jesus (Christ- Though, i do like the New Millenium Cyanide Christ as well, Great tune), Lonnie Plaxico, Andy MIlne, Ze Luis, and Jim Black (JB has magical powers, i want those. Magical powers. I don't have those. I suck).

Most Importantly, my heroes are anyone who Fights Back.

"The environment that is hostile to dreamers is always the environment that is run by right-wing administrations because in order for the right-wing administration to maintain its fiction, it has to be ideologically pure and that ideology does not admit for creativity. There is nothing creative about a right-wing administration. The whole goal of it is to freeze time and to move things backward. So, obviously the people who are most at risk, whenever there is a right-wing administration sitting in place, is anybody who is an intellectual dreamer or creative person in any field. They are at risk because they pose a threat to the administration."

-Frank Zappa, in regards to George H Bush's Administration, as well as Right Winged Administrations in general.

About me:
I'm a drummer from Miami, living in NYC (since 2001). I like to play all kinds of music as well as study and learn about all sorts of different cultures, history, politics, as well as music. Its my hope that one day i can use my body for not only being a vessel of change, but of art. I hope to do this by having messages of wisdom and peace tattooed on my body through the script of my ancestors.
I released a solo CD in June of 2008, and currently I'm working on a second solo record, as well as a new Duo CD with acclaimed bassist Jim Robertson. I also perform regularly with (but not limited to): Lonnie Plaxico, Ze Luis, Nevereven, Resolution 15, Dapp Theory, Saint of The Day, Hollands, The Jonathan Powell Project, The Hybrid Collective, The Richard Padron Project, Broken Madison, DBR and the MISSION, The Benny Reid Group, LOUD APT, Timcin Sahin (sub drummer), The Beaty Bros Band, F.U.B.A.R.
On top of this, i freelance quite a bit, so my schedule is usually consumed. On my off time, i like to read, write music, watch movies/documentaries/cartoons. (but if you're my friend already, you knew this :p). Anything else you would like to know, just write me :) Kenny
Who I'd like to meet:
...Whoever. I'm not picky... Anyone whose impossible to meet?
