Music
Like to listen & collect Devo & Gary Numan especially live, & others I like from the late 60's, 70s & 80s groups & singers. I collect studio albums & live concerts audio & video from alot of these including, The Tubes, The Cars, Pink Floyd, A Flock Of Seagulls, Roky Erickson, Berlin, Icehouse, Missing Persons, Billy Idol, The Police, The Go-Go's, Blondie, The Runaways, The Fixx, Robert Palmer, Thomas Dolby, Re-Flex, The Buggles, Kajagoogoo, The Bangles, Lene Lovich, Toni Basil, Pat Benatar, Kim Wilde, Alien, Corey Hart, Howard Jones, Kim Wilde, Morris Day & The Time, Ray Parker Jr., Kraftwerk, The Human League, Yazoo, Laura Branigan, Sheena Easton, Nu Shooz, Traci Lords, The Egyptian Lover, Iggy Pop & The Stooges, Generation X, The Ramones & The Dickies. Some newer bands & artists including The Bravery, The Counting Crows, Gin Blossoms, Dream Theater, Deadsy, Project Pitchfork, Solitary Experiments, The Faint, Dark Tranquillity & In Flames.
Also more but scattered & I don't collect them like the bands I mentioned. My favorite newer group recorded their first Demos in 1995. Then released their first album in 1997 they are called Deadsy. Cher married Greg Allman & they had a Son named Elijah Allman known as Exeter Blue in the group. He is the lead vocalist & guitarist for them. They are mainly Darkwave, Gothic, Synth / Rock & Undercore. They were heavily influenced by Gary Numan's Synthetic Dark Sounds from his earlier tracks like Down In The Park, Replicas, Metal, Films, Telekon, & I Dream Of Wires. So was my second favorite newer band influenced by Numan. Like Deadsy they are also still making albums & performing live too. This group is from Germany & really gave way to a new age of Gothic, Dark, Industrial & Electronic Music they are called Project Pitchfork. They started in the late 80's. Another band I like called The Faint I am a pretty big fan of them as well they are American like Deadsy. Heavily influenced by Gary Numan as well. The one newer group I really like that isn't goth is Dark Tranquillity, they are like Death Metal & from Sweden I find them very interesting & good they are like ahead of their time. Recently my brother told me about a group similar as hell to Project Pitchfork that are good Solitary Experiments they are awsome Pitchfork started before them & are better but Solitary are great they have no U.S. Record Label so their stuff is harder to find & was only relased in Germany under their Germany Label Numan & Pitchfork not the same they are both under the U.S. Metropolis Records Label.

If u don't know some at least or any of these guys then look them up on imdb.com or allmovieguide.com U will see what movies they did. Sr. Lon Chaney I am a huge fan of when it comes to Silent Horror Classics & others films he did. He was one of the Greatest Character Actors & Make-Up Artists ever in the history of cinema. He basically invented Make-Up. He did & invented his own make-up he applied to himself for different characters he portrayed in films. He would probably have to be my favorite actor of all time. Dubbed "The Man Of A Thousand Faces" he is the man! There are alot more actors & also actresses too but what the hell I can't name them all u will know already or find out if u don't, if u get to know me. I also like alot of other movies alot of Classic Film-Noir & Crime Films. Alot of other classic Adventure, Musicals, Drama & Romance. Classic Comedy also am big fans of The The Marx Bros. Charlie Chaplin, The Three Stooges, Laurel & Hardy also Abbott & Costello. Harold Lloyd & Buster Keaton are also good but Chaplin is the best Silent Comedian he was a genius! I think The Marx Brothers were the best Classic Comedians of the sound era especially Harpo he is the best he was awsome I am so captivated when he plays The Harp in the movies. I can't take my eyes of that he was so good at that & was funny as hell he is the best of The Marx Bros. I also like alot of modern Films especially Sci-Fi & Horror & others as well. Turner Classic Movies is my favorite channel AMC used to be till they ruined it. But I love TCM & record all kinds of movies off there with my DVD Recorder I also have a nice Computer DVD Burner which I download some & burn them. I use to buy alot on eBay.com, deepdiscount.com, & overstock.com No aymore But more recently I use amazon.com since 2006 or 2007 & ioffer.com I started in 2008. I also download some movies on SLSK emule & UTorrents.

The Military Channel on Comcast Digital Cable does put stuff like that on which it used to be called Discovery Wings Channel they shouldn't have changed it. We have that Digital only on one t.v.though so.

About me: like me by using
Creative, talented individual very open minded with most things. I graduated from Valley High School in June of 2002 didn't really like that school but I got through it allright I could of did better but I did good. Can be pretty hyper at times with things especially when I am happy. I have a really good sense of humor my sense of humour has evolved my humor was very different when I was younger. Now my sense of humour catches on to things better & is more mature I think. Usually can be a very serious person especially with the things I like that aren't comedy related. I know a good laugh though.
Who I'd like to meet: There are lots of Stars & Movie Ppl I would like to meet alot of them are dead or pretty old now & the others I don't know maybe, even the older ones one day I will meet maybe. Ray Harryahusen is one he is 87 now though. He is known as The Master Of Stop-Motion Animation Special Effects in Classic Great Sci-Fi & Fantasy Films of the late 40's 50's 60's 70's & early 80's. He is the best there is I think and won an Oscar in the early 90's. I wish I could meet him someday. Roger Corman Producer, Director & now just an Executive Producer was known as King of The B Movies made some of the best Low Budget Films. Especially his 50's & 60's Sci-Fi & Horror Films he is my favorite Producer, Director & Executive Producer. Wanna meet him too. Numan I got to meet surprisingly just this past August 2006 on the 8th I went all the way to Philadelphia to see him & his band play live for his Jagged Tour I really enjoyed the show I was really into it & took photos also my mom did too. After the concert Numan usually does this he meets all his fans & signs things. So me & my mom got to meet him I talked to him for like 10 mins.! he signed something I had & got a picture taken with him which is my default pic on my page. He Started in the late 70's & still makes albums & performs live now at 48. He was one of the first fouding fathers of Gothic, Darkwave & Synthpop Music. He is the first to do Electronic Gothic Music & Darkwave. He is from The U.K. had many hits in his early days there from '79-'83 after 1983 he started to slip off the charts cracking only Top 40 & 100 Spots on The U.K. Charts. He recently had two hits also in The U.K. his homeland one from 2002 & the other from 2003 first Top 40 second Top 20. Although the second was not all his song like the one from 2002 it was mainly written by an artist also from The U.K. named Rico Numan only wrote a few lines in the song. Also a huge Devo fan they are from Akron, Ohio. The band consists of Mark Mothersbaugh on Lead Vocals, Synthesizers & Rhythm Guitar, Bob Mothersbaugh on Lead Guitar, Gerald V. Casale on Bass Guitar, Lead Vocals, & Synthesizers. Bob Casale on Synthesizers & Rhythm Guitar. As for their drummers there was first Jim Mothersbaugh was on the early early stuff then they got Alan Myers He was with them until the late 80's then they had David Kendrick for a while until released & toured their last album in 1990 Smmoth Noodle Maps. Now they just tour & play their old stuff not making any new albums & have Josh Freese now on drums. Would love to see them live & meet them someday I hope they come to Pittsburgh again. Also hope to see Deadsy live & meet them someday in the near future. Group includes, Exeter Blue Lead Vocals & Lead Guitar, Z-Tar & Rhythm Guitar Carlton Megladon, Synthesizers Dr. Nner, Drums Alec Pure & They use to have Ashburn Miller known as Creature on Bass Guitar but he left them I hope he comes back he was so awsome it just won't be the same without him not sure who they have on Bass Guitar now. Anyway huge fan wanna see them live & meet them. Also wanna meet & see live Project Pitchfork they are so awsome huge fan of them! Hopefully they will tour the U.S. again in the close future that lies ahead.
