Bio:

I play the trombone (as if that isn't already obvious). Specifically jazz trombone. I also play tuba, and euphonium (a half-sized tuba with the same range as the trombone). I like to play. Basically I'm a total music geek. I'm also an arrogant son-of-a-bitch with absolutely no social skills whatsoever, but I'm working to try and change that. It's difficult, really.
Favorite Artists/Musicians: Liquid Soul, Tower of Power, Let's Go Bowling (status unknown, likely defunct), J.J. Johnson, Blood Sweat and Tears, the Skatalites, The Funky Babylonians (defunct), R.A. Oaklee (my first band in Denver which is now defunct), Young Lions Conclave (my second band in Denver, which is also now defunct), Stevie Wonder, Dave Matthews Band, David Matthews and the Manhatten Jazz Orchestra (two Daves), the Creepers, Bluehouse (local), Stabbing Westward (part of my dark and evil side, now defunct), KMFDM (c'mon! I need something that's not overly complex!), Talib Kweli, Bob Marley, The Scofflaws (status unknown, possibly defunct), old Chicago Transit Authority (before they started to suck), Dream Theater, Symphony X, old Metallica, Entranced (local, now defunct), Trans-Siberian Orchestra, BLAST! (defunct), Lester Bowie, John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, WEIRD AL YANKOVIC (the reason why I decided to be a musician in the first place), Bakra Bata (steel drum band), Chronophonic (reorganized but not as cool now as they used to be), Apolcalyptica (heavy metal cellos), O-Tone Brass Band (which I've played with), Youngblood Brass Band, Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Laibach, Bill Chase, Don Ellis, Brave Combo (2001 Grammy Winner, Best Polka Album), Bela Fleck and the Flecktones, Royal Crown Revue, Sinatra, Pink Floyd, Yes, Jimi Hendrix, Buddy Miles (local, Hendrix's drummer in Band of Gypsies), Gustav Mahler, Richard Strauss, Howard Shore, Danny Elfman (unfortunately, I'm not familiar with his Oingo Boingo stuff), Zack Hexum (local), Igor Stravinsky, Gustav Holst, John Williams, Michael Kamen, James Horner, 311 (local), 2 Skinnee Js, Manheim Steemroller (before they also started to suck), The Toasters, The Irritating Stick, Jaco Pastorious, Hepcat, some (but not all) Phish, Yo Flaco!, and some other stuff that I'll add later. I like pretty much all music except most rap, and country. There are exceptions in those genres. Oh yeah, I like to play all that stuff too.
My Likes: Chicks (Hey ladies!), Science Fiction (old-skool: Heinlen, Asimov, Herbert), Star Trek (excluding Voyager), Star Wars (excluding prequel movies thus far), Tolkien, Music (duh), Battle Bots, Simpsons, wasting time adding stuff to this profile, and occasionally getting out to chill with other people (which, as you can plainly see here, doesn't happen very often).
My Dislikes: Chicks (they're evil and manipulative. I'm lonely, and have been in very bad relationships with a few of them. Really bad.), wannabe gangstas', stoners who claim to know a lot about music but really don't, and people who don't give a crap about anything
My Motto: Ignorance is just a word used to deny the fact that there are stupid people in this world.
