My main interest is music, and movies, concerts, and entertainment in general. I do have other likes, some shouldn't be added here, but life is as goiod as we make it, I like to have fun, but not at the expense of others.
Music
Music is one thing that some people do not understand about me. I like most styles of music, I do not care for Disco however. I think musically I could say I like everything from Johnny Cash to Johnny Rotten, AC/DC to Zeppelin, George Jones to George Harrison and much in between. Some of my favorite new stuff would also be in a range. I love the stuff Blue October does, Stone Sour rocks, and check out the video below of the New Rivals, kickin' stuff kiddies!Lexican Munch - THE NEW RIVALS
I am a horror and suspense movie and Sci-Fi lover. That's not all I like, I do like good comedies, but in the last few years there have been very few movies that have actually made me laugh. Some of my favorite movies are The Blues Brothers, The Exorcist, Candyman, Hellraiser, The Forgotten, Something About Mary, Fierce Creatures, A Fish Called Wanda, Natural Born Killers, Resevoir Dogs, and many others that wouldn't fit if I tried putting them all in here.
..
Television
Again mainly Sc-Fi, Action, Suspense. Shows like The X-Files, The Shield, the 4400, Friends, 24, The Dead Zone, The Outer Limits. Newer shows that will be classics like Prison Break, Psych, Monk, Supernatural and classic Brit comedy like Faulty Towers, Monty Python, Allo Allo, and Benny Hill.
Books
This is a shorter list as most of my favorites are Stephen King, Clive Barker, Robin Cook, Michael Chrichton, Dean Koontz and the Alex Cross series from James Patterson.
Heroes
I have many heroes, and most of which are music industry people that have been willing to take a chance and steer away from the norm. The main reason I got into radio was because of JOX like Cousin Brucie, Don Imus and Don Mabee. Dare to be different and take some chances. Cookie Cutter music is all over the radio today, I respect anyone that gives up and coming unique music a chance.
I love to hear new and unique music by artists and bands that actually follow their own heart and passion rather than copying another style or artist/bands music to the "T".
Contact about Reviews etc.
Are you in a band, or a musician that want's to be reviewed on Rikks Revues home site CLICK HERE!, maybe you have an INDEPENDENT or Major Movie release on DVD you would like reviewed, maybe you just want your trailer featured here or at my home site, you can contact me through MySpace, or the contact link at Rikks Revues
I have produced some demos and Independent albums for people (from fiddle music to country, metal and pop). Yeah , I guess you could say music plays a big part in my life. Music is a passion that is not shared by all. Some people like music, but don't live for it, I have and always will believe that music is one of the major reasons that I can keep some level of temporary sanity.
Remember that the artists that make the music spend their time to make us the listeners happy, and sometimes it is a thankless job, so what I always tell people is "The Biggest Compliment You Can Pay and Artist or band is to buy their work."
If you want us to stop in your town shout out now because the highway to hell tour plans are underway. It's a given there's to be a road trip down Interstate 95 Southbound from Richmond but we don't mind deviating from our path.
If you want me - tell me and me and I'll rumble on into town with books in hand! That's right you get a chance to pick the tour stops!! How many authors are going to let you do that for them??
Just thought I would drop by and say happy birthday. Also thought you might like to know that we've just got four new tracks, two of them free to download, up on our profile. As well as that you can now down load "Hey Yeah" from our first CD. Let us know what you think. Anyway, have a gooden.
