See Influences Section...

What I'm not into:
- Arguing over songs
- Internal band competition or drama
- Never ending practice without playing live
- Getting blitzed/wasted in any form at practice or a gig -- totally unprofessional
- Playing so loud the vocals cant be heard
- Showing up un-prepared at practice/gigs
- Playing out for free -- except rare occasions
- Poor/lack of communication

I will rock your socks off and wont waste your time, please dont waste mine.
