music, synthesisers, being a rockstar, being a lounge musician, being Suit & Tie Guy.
Music
I like music that kicks ass ... like prog rock, acid jazz, and ambient music. i can't stand the strokes, blink 182, or christian hardcore.
If you think The Beloved is a christian hardcore band and not a British synthpop duo who wrote a song called "Deliver me" which was then covered by Sarah Brightman and then the cover was covered by cultural christian rocker David Crowder then please go away.
of course, if you're open to debating the relative merits of Jon Marsh's original versus David Crowder's appropriation and adjustment of the lyrics by all means feel free to stick around.
by the way, if you think The Faint or The Postal Service are "really good synthpop" but don't own any Everything But The Girl or Pet Shop Boys records then you might want to think about rebalancing your iPod.
Movies
my favourite movies are Incubus, Blade Runner, and Secretary.
this does not necessarily mean i'm into speaking Esperanto, hot human-on-replicant action, or spanking you ... but hey if you're into that stuff that's cool.
Television
Doctor Who, the Prisoner, Night Gallery, The A-Team, and Dragnet. also short-lived late 70s/early 80s SF programmes. if you don't know what SF means, or don't like the way I spelled "programme", please don't bother to add me as a friend.
Books
remaindered coffee table books, Time Life coffee table books (WWII, the Maritime series, and The Old West in particular), music equipment manuals, music production magazines (Sound-On-Sound, Tape Op, Synapse, etc), and Doctor Who novels.
Heroes
Robert Fripp, Groove Holmes, and Klaus Schulze. I think Vin Diesel kicks ass too ... but I don't know if i'd call him a "hero". on second thought, yeah ... Vin Diesel is a personal hero of mine.
About me: HELLO. IF YOU DON'T LIVE NEAR ME, HAVE NO FRIENDS IN COMMON WITH ME, DON'T SEND ME A NOTE THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A FORM LETTER, OR ARE A BAND THAT SUCKS IT IS OBVIOUS YOU ARE A CUNT OR A DICKMONGER AND I WILL HIT "SPAM" ON YOUR FRIEND REQUEST. KTHXBYE.
My name is Suit & Tie Guy. i have another name as well but it's not as easy to remember.
I produce electronic music, play Hammond organ, and build synthesisers.
Am working on a techno remix album. Is there a song by you that I can be authorized to do a dance mix (clean) of? See Live Music Peoria for recent examples of my Str8 Techno Mix tunes for local bands (Tina Sparkle, Freudian Press, Tyson & the Friction, The Skabs). I'll need a link to a hosted online mp3 or wav file. Thanks. http://livemusicpeoria.org/
You like beer right? You might get a kick out of this Ozzy skit. Here's the new film Gabby Skab and I made last night for upcoming Pabst sales convention. The Skabs "PBR Me Right Now". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGPLSnltauk
i know it's no excuse. just one bad night.. 22 shots of captain in an hour and a half.. a fell down some stairs..and evidently drunk dialed my mom. ha. bad idea.
ah. i'm alright. coming out of a 4 month drunken binge and alot of other shit. but hey! i'm...2 days sober! after a cracked collar bone and a loss of memory.. Ahhh... yep.. i'm actually moving to chicago... to a commune.. a CHRISTIAN commune. i need to get drunk one more time atleast before then. now that i'm all..not so pessimistic anymore. hah. i leave Wednesday. and should be back for a while before cornerstone. if you still want to record austin and i it'd kick ass. 3093036357 we got all our new songs down finally.
Iced Mocha, sir. =] Haha And Willie York's mixtape however shitty, would be entirely cherished hah. I haven't seen that crazy fucker in about a year and it makes me sad.
I caused an uproar when I said I was performing at a Catholic retirement home. I want everyone to not just think, but KNOW that I am beyond weird, don't fit any ideologies, and generally do everything my own way. I admire your guts in your postings. What do you hate about Scum World? Let's discuss some topics relative to music, studio time, electronic jams, and taking over the local music scene that's full of young bums and drama queen pussies.
Wow. And I thought The Skabs and I were rad max. You sure ripped off some damage at Live Music Peoria (or is it Dead Coverband Peoria?). Thanks for having ths smarts to recognize innovative punk comedy. Funny Dress & the Nudey Sleaze loves you! LOL
