About me: Hey there, I'm David.
-I love music of all genres.
-I love cold weather, because I can wear pants, scarves, and jackets. I especially love jackets. Military cut, blazers, hoodies, track jackets, I don't think I'll ever have enough jackets.
-My favorite color is green, followed by red and black.
-My favorite movie (and book) is Fight Club.
-My favorite food is probably grapes, though really fresh and in-season oranges are fantastic. I'm also quite partial to anything on a Hibachi grill, especially Yamato.
-My favorite bands are MUSE, GreyMarket, Fair To Midland, Dir en Grey, MUCC, The Deftones, and Radiohead.
-I'm a digital artist. The image in my background is a sample of my artwork. My extremely out-of-date site can be found here: http://xshidox.deviantart.com
-I play guitar, piano, and bass.
-I work as a Luthier's apprentice, in other words, I go to work every day to build guitars and basses from scratch.
-I am a photographer, and my Olympus E500 is my life. A small fragment of my stuff is on my site, but for many reasons I don't keep much of it online.
I do lots of concert photography, and have worked with bands like Fair to Midland, GreyMarket, Supe, The Serpenteens, Kenotia, Blinded Black and Forever Fades Away.
-I'm never having kids.
-I am attending Georgia State University.
-I intend to major in either Jazz Studies or Music Technology and then start my music career.
-I want to move to the mountains of Austria, but visit England, Italy, and Japan quite frequently.
-I hope to be a successful musician one day.
-Don't add me to increase your friend count, add me to talk to me.
-My screen name is XShidoX. Send me an IM some time.
Who I'd like to meet: Musicians, artists, music enthusiasts, and cool people in general. Stupid people are my number one pet peeve.
Tomorrow is my going away/ice cream sundae party and you should be there. It's at my friend's house in Vinings @ 8pm. Call me if you wanna come. I hope I get to see your beautiful face!
Wow! Thanks for the super supportive, encouraging words. I'm glad there's that creative give-and-take happening. I'm the first to admit that so many artists have influenced us, esp. on this new record. Anyway, good luck with the demos. Oh, just to share, two artists who were super-influential to me personally have a new EP out. Might not be your cup of tea, but check it out.
Here's a quick glimpse into Track 1 on the new album, "checksum". Thanks for getting folks together. We hope to meet everyone real soon! For now, keep an eye out for the rest of the episodes.
