I enjoy contemporary art, good conversation, reading, travel, music, animals, open minds, free thinkers, non conformists, film, theater, punk rock & hip hop to classical and opera. I used to be a professional musician, have toured all over the US and Europe. Those days are over though, time to settle down. I still work as a studio musician, play local gigs, and write music for film. My life is very peaceful, days spent relaxing at home reading and hanging with my kitten Pablo, making music, breaking bread with friends. Yes... I'm tattooed. No I don't fit the tattooed guy stereotype. I love contemporary art, especially the works of Rothko, Damien Hirst, and Francis Bacon. I manage a book store and am an avid reader. I am not into sports and I don't ride a motorcycle or watch UFC matches. I have a 16 year old son who lives in OR. While my life is very peaceful I am always on the go... I am an Aries after all and always have my eye on the prize. I have accomplished more in my life than I ever thought possible and have great admiration and respect for those who go after their dreams. I believe in focusing on strengths rather that waste time trying to improve on weakness. I embrace change both around me and inside of myself and tend to live in the here and now.

I am looking to meet someone who enjoys the arts and literature, is adventurous, kind, easy going, a vegetarian would be nice... I tend to get along with the Taurus, Leo, Pisces, Sagittarius, Aquarius, Aries, and Gemini in relationships.

Oh... if you are a DJ or know how top cut beats and are fluent in Logic, Protools, FinalCut/Draft etc, and/or a musician, artist, writer or the like then I would consider overlooking my astrological prerequisite!

Making music, writing, going to museums, stuff...

Strange Angel, Under the Banner of Heaven, Hiram Key, Choke, 120 Days of Sodom, Story of O, Story of the Eye, Ishmael, 4 Agreements, Bloodline of the Holy Grail, Anatomy of an Enigma, Snuff, Rant, The Notebook, Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, A Movable Feast, You Know Me Al, Bone Palace Ballet, Sedaris, Daniel Quinn, Dos Pasos, Ford Maddox Ford, Hemmingway, Crowley... the list goes on and on.

Punk rock and hip hop to classical and opera.

I'm a vegetarian.
