OK here goes...
I used to play straight up METAL stuff, which turned into prog-metal, which turned into jazz fusion, which turned into industrial somehow, i just play all kinds of shit. basically I went through all of the typical guitar dork chop based stuff for years and ended up not knowing how to write a song, but I had great chops. So I had to put all of that stuff on the backburner and just write about 20 shitty songs or so, shitty songs that I AGONIZED over, until I started to feel comfortable with songwriting. Throwing the chops back in is fun and can be meaningful too, but its kind of like karate. A karate master doesnt just go out on the street and kick your ass so you respect him, you know? So I try to stay away from that stuff unless its really necessary. I'm really into production, and I believe in using the studio as a creative tool rather than trying to go after that "correct" sound that is "pleasant" to the ear. I do some production and liscensing music for different things. I'm in a few bands, one is an electronic/rock band (think Stabbing Westward, NIN ...) there are a few other side project kinda things as well. I hope to land a gig as touring guitarist for the group Snake River Conspiracy in a few months, dunno if anyone here has heard em. I also do sessions and gigs for different pop artists in and around the bay area, and I give guitar lessons too. I just like music, from industrial to the beatles to dr dre to stevie wonder... its just pointless to list this stuff out, but thats kind of my story.

Snake River Conspiracy
They still going! With the female singer right? I have a few of their songs actually, "Breed", "Lovesong", "Vulcan" if memory serves.

haha yeah man, nice to see someone who's heard of em! Vulcan is a killer! The old singer Tobey has been replaced by Martina Axen, formerly of drain STH, and a hell of a singer (and looker) :eek: as well. The next album is nearing completion and hopefully we'll come together and throw a really cool touring package together. I don't have that gig yet, but its pretty close and pretty sure. I'll have to let you know when and if we go through your area, eh?

I was looking over all of the people who flamed me here while watching "The Thing" and a message to all of you came to me, I feel it is very important..
