I've been playing guitar for 3 years, and am apparently too modest according to certain friends. I play a Squire on a Marshall MG30DFX. It's amazingly shite. My playing is somewhat on the technical side, which annoys people, as it's just wanking or showing off half the time. THESE PEOPLE ARE WRONG. Also, don't judge my playing by my MP3's. I'm constantly improving my skills and musical style, and as so, my MP3's are not an accurate portrait of my current skill level or interests.
My favorite bands are Dream Theater, Between The Buried & Me, Yes and The Mars Volta. My favorite genres are Progressive Metal, Progressive Rock, Technical Death Metal and Jazz Fusion. My two all-time favorite bands are Dream Theater and Between The Buried & Me. I can't choose between them, they both influence and inspire me to no end.
I'd love to form a band with other like-minded individuals that consists of mostly technical and heavy Progressive Metal, yet can be very mellow and jazzy, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, etc. esque. Think Between The Buried & Me and Dream Theater having sex and birthing a child that has extreme mood swings, yet keeps an unhealthy structure... that is slightly devoid of structure... if that makes sense. If you live in Adelaide, drop me a message and hopefully we'll get something happening. ;D
My personality is often described as a mix of intellectual humor and random energy with a sprinkle of narcissism. People either love me for it, or they hate me for it. I've gotten used to it. I always try to be the best at everything I do... it sometimes works, but sometimes doesn't. I'm very lazy by nature, and I love to sleep in, which means I won't hesitate to not wake up if I'm sleeping over a friends' place. ♥ (Also, expect random bursts of energy that even I can't predict. They just happen.)
Tha'ss me. Feel free to add me on MSN and enter my world.
