Hello there. My name is Peter Awesome. Welcome to my space. In the following paragraphs, I will outline just a few details about myself so you fine people can come even closer to understanding the awesome being that is me. Okay then, let's start.
I was born in a town called New York City. That's pretty sweet. I moved to California at a young age and have been spreading myself over many locales in that state since. You can catch me in Redondo Beach, Orange County, Los Angeles, San Jose, and San Francisco.
I currently attend San Jose State University. The last two semesters have been the greatest two semesters ever. Seriously. One day, I will stop going to school, but I don't know when that is.
I major in SJSU's school of Radio, Television, and Film (RTVF). I have been around film ever since I was born. My mom and dad both worked in the film and TV industries, my grandma (on my father's side) worked in film, and my dad's sister works in film. My dad continues to work, currently holding the position of First Assistant Director on the TV show "House, M.D." I like editing, acting, writing, and maybe even... DIRECTING?!? We'll see how it turns out.
If you can't tell, I like ska. I like it a lot. I probably discovered it in a similar way to how most people discover it: I heard it somewhere when I was young, I had no idea what it was, and I liked it. I think the first time I heard it (or really gave notice to hearing it) was in the movie BASEketball (Reel Big Fish). Then, in late 2003-early 2004, while walking out of ESPN Zone in Downtown Disney, I noticed a big crowd of people watching this band with horns. They were Suburban Legends. My first ska show came shortly after that, a benefit show called Save Eric! which had some major bands on it, including Reel Big Fish, Suburban Legends, The Aquabats, and Starpool. Ska is now my favorite music, and I truly believe I'll never stop listening to it. I try to go to a show whenever possible, and I have made so many friends by meeting people at shows.
Speaking of music, I play guitar and write. I am currently working on something of a solo career (under the name Peter Awesome), and even have a music page. Go check it out, otherwise you aren't cool.
I like photography. Live concert photography is something I really like to do, and I love helping out the scene as much as I can. I have mostly taken photos for bands I'm friends with, like The Un-Fun Slide, Minus Vince, The Shenanigans, Chase Long Beach, and others. I hope to soon get a professional digital camera, and maybe even make my photography something I actually do. I have a MySpace Photo Page and a Photobucket account. Go check them out.
I think there will be more to come.
Thank you all for attending. There are cupcakes and punch in the lobby.

I sing in this video! About halfway through, Klemm hands me the mic and let's me sing a line from their new song "Girlfriend's Pretty". I felt so cool. People shook my hand! Kudos to my good friend Chamrawk!
My favorite band is Reel Big Fish. I hope to hear them perform all of their songs live before they don't perform anymore. I started keeping tabs. Here is the list so far, first arranged by Album, then arranged by Name for their covers and other songs. For their song "S.R.", I will list all the versions that I've heard. Songs that I've heard them play live have an asterisk.

You should seriously check out Atom and His Package. I swear it is made up of pure fun and candy. Especially the albums "Making Love" and "Redefining Music". Plus "Head of Septa, Nose of Me" is kinda ska-ish.
