I collect and smoke pipes and tobacco, I also enjoy getting together with friends for wine and cheese. I enjoy fine liquors and well crafted beer. I firmly believe in quality over quantity in all aspects of life.
Music
I am not a DJ; I mix live sound for KG3 (a local classic rock band.)
Although I like classic rock, late 90's alternative rock, and classical music, my favorite band over all is Our Lady Peace:
A Decade (2006)
Healthy in Parinoid Times (2005)
Live (2003)
Gravity (2002)
Spiritual Machines (2001)
Happiness... Is Not A Fish That You Can Catch (1999)
Clumsy (1997)
Naveed (1995)
The Toadies is also one of my all time favorites:
Rubbernecker (1994)
Hell Below Stars Above (2001)
Live From Paradise (2002)
Look at my friends list to see what other music I like.
