music, traveling, DIY-projects, yoga, the arts, reading classic literature, making great innovative coffee beverages, trying to piss off the right-wing religious people out there.

Movies
Well...I DIDN'T like "Joe vs. the Volcano". Thats the only movie I walked out of.
Television
Law & Order reruns for some reason are really, really interesting. Otherwise, Simpsons, documentaries, and whatever we're watching in the hotel.
Books
I read ALOT. I enjoy the New York Times as print media most! But, I'll read every newspaper from coast to coast. (Arizona's reporting is sub-standard, though.)
Anything by C.Dickens, but not "A Christmas Carol", "The Jungle" - Upton Sinclair, the original prose for vegetarianism, Chaucer's "Canterbury Tales", "Kiss & Tell" - Gene Simmons, "The Bach Reader", Richard Broughtigan, "Breakfast of Champions" - Vonnegut, "The Good Earth" - Pearl S. Buck, "Lies My Teacher Told Me", "A People's History of the United States", "Notes & Tones" - Art Taylor, "Lies, and the Lying Liars who tell them" - Al Franken, "The Innocents Abroad" - Mark Twain, "The World According to Garp"

See all the music entries, plus my fav Olympic swimmers...Pablo Morales, Jenny Thompson and Janet Evans. My Dad, my bass teacher-Glen Moore, and all my trumpet teachers.
About me: IF I DON'T KNOW YOU OR YOUR BAND, I WILL NOT ADD YOU.
I play with March Fourth Marching Band among many other groups. I love to play trumpet! I tour with M4 occasionally, and we have a real nice community with lots of love and support.
Now that I'm not living in the desert anymore, I'll be out and about ALOT! So.........let's hang, and cause minor trouble! I like to play music, and work well with others. I'm a professional, so let's talk over drinks! I just finished my Master's of Science in Teaching Music. I swear, they spelled my name correctly on the degree, so it must be mine!

Who I'd like to meet: Musicians, dancers, artists, bicyclists; people that are sassy, witty, and otherwise clever. Perhaps you think I'd be nice to know a musician, but you gotta be cool!
If you like Disney, enjoy Clear Channel, and listen to the Religious Right, or are otherwise a right-wing, I don't want to meet you. Ever.
Aloha Katie...mahalo for the add. Hoping all is better than well with you. Had so much fun with you all when you were here. Be sure to hit me up when you come back. I'll tag the pics to you as soon as I have a moment. Till then...keep it rocking!
Yeah, I don't live in Hawaii anymore and as you can probably tell that I'm not on Myspace much either. I still have the same phone number and recieved the text you sent about Warsaw playing on Oahu. I miss seeing you guys and I need to see a show. I live in Boulder City, NV. now which is about half hour south of Las Vegas. I hopefully will be able to make it to one of your shows next time I hear about one, either here or near LA where I'm from.
whats up SkaQueen, I'm still living down in Los Angeles right now, heard you are doing a reunion show with warsaw in Hawaii. Let me know when you are going to be in my area next time around.
We'll SO see you there! I can't wait to see you and hear your sounds!!! Can't wait, can't wait, CAN'T WAIT!!! Jaeger bombs are going DOWN! Peace & love
Hi Kate this is Matthew. Good to see you the other day and hope you have fun on your tour. I'm back home :( but hope to be coming back to the happenin side of Oregon really soon. Peace!
