About me: I am a rock and roll guitar player with my NYC band "Patti Rothberg". My website is www.pattirothberg.com, where I also have an online portfolio of my artwork. I'm a painter and freelance illustrator and my favorite subject is (YOUR) portrait. I love adventure, and don't like the idea of boundaries, (which I guess means I have to say I like the idea of boundaries as not to be confined by the idea that I don't like them.(!) Here are some things I love off the top of my head: I love kitsch, especially 60s, 70s and 80s stuff.. I love rock and roll, Missing Persons, the Ramones, AC/DC Runaways, Frank Zappa, Led Zeppelin, The Darkness (bien sur), Violent Femmes, King Missile, Maggie Estep, Holly and the Italians, B52s, Glam Rock David Bowie (many a guy who looks good w/ make up on), my friends' bands: Big Sister, The Beautiful Dreamers,.. too many to mention. I am also really into random things like anagrams, crossword puzzles, knitting, and the movies Xanadu:), Times Square, Dog Day Afternoon.. I don't think there is a link between these things that I like that I just thought of, but gimme a minute and I'll find one!
I'm also really into star gazing, and have been known to pull over on a dark highway to see some shooting stars.
I also love camping, beach parties at night, having fun with someone and not feeling uptite. That rhymes, maybe I'll write a song again (?)

Patti, my hero!!!! How are things, girl? This is your devoted fan out here in Washington. Let me know if you ever need any delicious apples. Just wanted to let you know that you can do no wrong. Musically, at least. I guess we all fuck up now and again. ;-) I'm still hoping to see you live someday. Until then, my friend, create and be happy!! Jack
