ABOUT

I'm a music education major at UNR, I teach guitar, and run a repair dept in my shop. I'm busy, but I need to get out and jam. I like all kinds of metal and hardcore. Metal does NOT mean Godsmack, Disturbed, or Slipknot. Hardcore does not include the generic talentless sh*t like Attack Attack and people who could still play their riffs if they were a left hand amputee. I'm also down for something poppy, Bayside, Valencia, whatever. I really don't care. I don't dig pop country, radio friendly hip-hop, and other suck like that. I'm not the shreddiest dude ever, but I have a few chops and can hang for sure.
