Best Advice Given
Always give two weeks notice.
Dream Come True
Living, writing, and rocking in sunny, beautiful Southern Oregon.
Pet Peeves
Large doses of country pop and gangsta rap. Small doses are OK.
Guitar, bass, drums, keys, and vox, most of which I play in The Friend Ship Pagota and my solo project. Writing, reading, creating, and exploring. Going to shows. Organic gardening. Sometimes skating, sometimes snowboarding. Always on two wheels. Audio and video capture.
ABOUT ME
I am a musician, a journalist, and a music fan. Life is awesome. I play music, write about music, photograph music, listen to music, and ride my big bad motorcycle. I also cook and wash dishes for rent money.
I Listen To
Everybody! Except Britney and Puff Daddy.
Unusual Talents
Mouth trumpet. Bad dancing. Full contact haiku. Competitive extreme yodeling.
I don't mostly because I don't do a lot of beat mixing at this point of my tenured dj career. I play 80's just as they were heard on the radio, in all orginal form and unmixed. The other club I spin at is hip hop but I don't have the technology to make it happen! Plus, I am about to hang it up there!
Hey Dave its Kyle from the Avengers thats an awesome article and im glad you enjoyed the show. Im gonna take pictures of the show on the 3rd and i hope you can make it to the metal show. Im so glad you enjoy what were doing and like to get it out to the city.
Damn Dave. That is some wonderful music. I hear Wilco, Daniel Lanois, and other greats in there. You know how to run a board and mix. Great to hear some good stuff. If you ever need a crazy bastard to lay down a guitar track, let me know. What I don't know, I make up in crazy guitar playing.
