You're a Post-Punk. You know 70s punk was cool, but it was mostly just a stepping stone for the greater intellectualism of what would come after. The 80s were amazing. You quite possibly have huge hair, and may wear lots of black. Snare drums need reverb. Lots and lots of reverb.
You're all about the music. Not too incredibly mainstream, but not too incredibly underground. It's awfully hard for anyone to oppose you, seeing as how you rule.
MINISTRY
-You are Ministry. You were not always as dark and scary as you are now. Yes there was a time when you could cheese it out like the rest of them! Don't try to hide it, we love it! Sometimes it's good to get that fake English accent a kickin'
You are a Trad Goth, you like your classic Gothic
Rock bands, and swear that Andrew Eldritch is
in fact God. You can easily be comfortable
with being considered a Death Rocker also.
You still like the basic black
clothing/makeup, and don't care if it's now
considered stereotypical. You also still go
for the teased hair look. You most likely
gave up on the club scene long ago when they
started playing that "oonz oonz"
shit. Picture of Siouxsie Sioux
i haven't been to the movies in ages... i'd rather watch movies at home where i have speakers, a couch, & a pause button
some movies that I have &/or have seen a lot:
Sixteen Candles, The Lost Boys, The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Weird Science, Better Off Dead, Say Anything, Heathers, Dazed & Confused, Clueless, The Craft, Cruel Intentions, Empire Records, Bring It On, Not Another Teen Movie, Reality, Threesome, Singles, Clerks, Chasing Amy, Friday, Romy and Michele's High School Reunion, The Truth About Cats & Dogs, High Fidelity, Beavis & Butthead Do America, Office Space, Super Troopers, Old School, Wedding Crashers, Groundhog Day, Memento, Girl Interrupted, A Beautiful Mind, Donnie Darko, Benny & Joon, Willow, Beetlejuice, Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, Harry Potter, Legend, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Edward Scissorhands, Basic Instinct, Pulp Fiction, Face/Off, Go, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs. The Crow, Blade, Dark City, Aliens, Wizard of Oz, Falling Down, Wayne's World, My Cousin Vinny, Sleepy Hollow
WhAt GrEaT ::80's:: MoViE aRe YOU?
You're Sixteen Candles. I bet loads of people can totally relate to that teen movie. Molly Ringwald is the best. Take this quiz!
I luv South Park, & sometimes I'll watch Family Guy, The Simpsons, or King of the Hill... & of course Beavis and Butthead, My So Called Life, Married with Children, Roseanne, Living Single, Golden Girls, & other 80s/90s show reruns for nostalgic trips; not much else, TV sucks & generally bores me. people sit around all day & watch TV in their spare time... i do the same thing listening to music. I don't watch TV much, but when I do watch it, I love Comedy Central & Animal Planet... & i might add that Law & Order & CSI reruns can be HIGHLY addicting
Books
mostly fiction like 1984, Catcher in the Rye, Brave New World, stuff like that. i read Mozart in the Jungle semi-recently
Heroes
my family; people who can be good-natured & nice to people, no matter what happens; people who stand up for their beliefs, in a good way. people who have been through bad & traumatic things in their life, but still have the strength & courage to get through it with their heads on straight.
I:
- am a classical & rock musician... mkay, classical pays the bills, & rock is for a diversion.
- am from Texas, y'all, & have moved back... though I've been living in Chicago the past few years, & I miss Chi-town dearly :(
- have 3 degrees in music, & um, yah, I know a lot about music :-P
- have been teaching music lessons for about 10 years... & since I've been around so many kids already, i don't want any of my own *grin*
- play in a symphony
- sing & play guitar, bass guitar, flute, oboe, pots & pans, you know.
- am very sarcastic, laidback, & friendly person.
- am a Taurus.
- am a mutt (by heritage).
- love animals. if it weren't for music, i'd probably have a job of some type working with animals.
- live for 80s & 90s music.... see listing.
- can understand some Spanish & German, & I'm trying to learn more. ich liebe Musik... es ist mein Leben.
- love beanie hats, milk, dark colors, mexican food, night-time, burgers, pizza, & cloudy days.
- am NOT going to post revealing poses like soooo many of these profiles.
- don't need a 10 zillion comments everyday... honestly, what's the point? but I do like messages, so if you add me, feel free to email or IM me... I won't bite too hard ;-)
- i'd luv to do voice over acting.
- I play the flute & I'm an orchestral nerd. If you're so curious, you can hear my flute playing here
- I have had music recorded, which you can find under The Rainy Thursdays
Feel free to add my band if you like what you hear, & you may add me if you think we have a good deal in common. I'd also like to chat with some locals... esp. lovers of rock & symphonic music. I like meeting new people. Also, if you are in the Austin area & at all interested in playing with The Rainy Thursdays, (especially for live shows), & play guitar/bass, keyboards & drums, please message me! Thanks.
THIS is why I'm on this website... musik!! I hope y'all enjoy some of these songs I like by a bunch of bands I've been listening to a LOT for the past year & more.
Your a...GOTH! Your depressed most of the time, life sucks and you wanna show the world. You don't mind being called a freak or weird, its who you are and if people don't like that they can get lost!
Who I'd like to meet: I'd like to chat with people who...
- are music freaks
- have good taste in music
- are other musicians
- are intelligent
- have a good & similar sense of humor
- were band or orchestra dorks that I knew somewhere... high school, college, music festival, wherever.
- are NOT superficial.... no "girl collectors"
If you are an individual & want to add me, NO thanks to all the fake porn & nonsense profiles trying to add me *SIGH*, I've changed my settings to where you have to know my name/email. If you want me to add you, & it looks like we have a good deal in common, I don't mind, just shoot me a message & I'll most likely add you when I know you're a real person. If I can't see your profile, please tell me where you found my profile & why you want to be my friend. If I already know you from somewhere (school, summer festival, friend of a friend, etc.), feel free to send me a request & don't forget to say hi!
If you are a band, I have just gotten WAY too many band requests. I just don't possibly have time to listen to them all, so I turned off bands adding me. I also need to request no emails if you read this far, I get too many of them too. If you REALLY think I'll like you based on my musical interests, feel free to drop my BAND an add request, & possibly a note THERE on what you sound like, what bands you've been compared to, etc... OF COURSE, as long as it looks like I would probably like it... just PLEASE look at my list of bands. Obviously, I like a LOT of music, so I most likely can appreciate a lot of other bands. If I really really like your music, I'll add you on here. I know most people probably don't read this far, but oh well...
