My name is Andy.
I play instruments.
I write music under the alias of Andy and the Pandy's, among other things. (andyandthepandys.bandcamp.com - if you're curious)
I like people.
I enjoy being awkward.
I don't mind silence.
I don't really talk much.
Sometimes I talk a lot.
I like to have fun.
I like to ride my bike.
I like skateboarding.
I like Dick Tracy. Probably more than anyone.
Internet/texting abbreviations annoy me.
I have a really large, really close-knit group of friends that I see pretty much every day.
I will laugh at everything. That is not an exaggeration.
I will be sarcastic.
I like high fives.
I talk in song lyrics on a regular basis and will do so every chance I get.
I have some tattoos.
I really like sports. Only playing them. I don't usually watch them. The Little League World Series is the only exception, because that shit is awesome. And hockey.
I like video games, but I don't play them usually.
I secretly wish I was a rapper.
I like fishing a lot. A lot.
I like talking to people I don't know via the internet.

Trying to do something worthwhile. I'm not sure if it's working.

Playing a lot of music. That's what I do for a living.
I'm also a recording engineer/producer on the side.

Trying to love everyone.

Hugs. I always win.
And making appropriate playlists/mixtapes.

Usually when I first meet someone they think I hate them because I don't talk, or I make fun of them. oops. I'm not a jerk, though. Trust me. I'm actually a pretty nice dude.

I like a lot of things... from punk to bluegrass and most everything in between and outside.

anathallo, the ramones, wintersleep, mewithoutyou, watashi wa, elliott smith, bill monroe, earl scruggs, house of heroes, nofx, mxpx, hank williams, loretta lynn, owen, andrew bird, the wooden sky, iron and wine, tycho, cursive, and infinitely more...

movies... dick tracy. the mighty ducks trilogy, the karate kid trilogy (the 4th one doesn't exist, as far as i'm concerned), the big lebowski, the living wake, he's just not that into you, newsies (it's the only musical that i like, and i love it.) lord of the rings, clue, suicide club, josie and the pussycats, and dick tracy. and also, dick tracy.

books... LORD OF THE RINGS!/THE HOBBIT (i've read the whole series probably 5 or 6 times). anything donald miller or c.s. lewis has ever written. also a fan of dave eggers. and you know, typical stuff like catcher in the rye, perks of being a wallflower, running with scissors, naked lunch... i could keep going, but i don't feel like it. i like to read.

music. love. god. cigarettes. beer. music.

my lofty life goals.

top 3:
-bathe in a waterfall
-poop in the grand canyon
-hug a polar bear

dying by the record machine.

porch parties. all day. everyday.

I wink at people a lot because I think it's creepy and it makes me laugh. In real life, that is.

I'm losing my hair, and I just don't care. Now wave your hands in the air, and jump onto a chair.

I'm getting pretty fat because I drink too much beer. Seriously. It looks like I'm 6 months pregnant.

I can shimmy better than you.

I made a pact with my best friend that if we were ever in a situation where death was imminent, we have to strip naked and yell "FREEDOM!".

I will cry like a baby every time i see the following movies: mr. holland's opus, armageddon, lord of the rings, SLC punk!

I play D&D. If you think that's lame or stupid, fuck you. That shit's awesome.

I won't go to clubs. They just make me frustrated that I'm not playing laser tag. Conversely, laser tag just makes me want to dance.

I rarely ever make the first move. Who cares? Rhetorical.

-You hate bright eyes, msi, blink 182, and donnie darko as much as I do.
If you like any of those things, I guess that's fine too.

-You want to go bowling. I have coupons.

-You're one in a million.

-You want to get drunk and talk about Jesus.

If you don't like lord of the rings, don't even bother talking to me, because you're probably dead inside.
(I don't really mean that. well, not completely.)

Talk to me. I'd love to hear about you.
