MUSIC
My compilation CD "Digital Dismay" may say it all.

I'm as likely to follow up Uberjam with Elizebethen Consort Music as I am to follow Portishead with Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols.

I get heaping helpings of Irish Traditional Music courtesy of my wife

Currently quite hot on the 60's folk-jazz combo The Pentangle.
BOOKS
This year:

Lynchpin - Are You Indespensable*
Poke the Box*
Zen Habits
The Power of Less*

TURN ON'S
My Alembic Essence 6-String Bass

My fiddler wife.

The fact that music teaches me something every time I pick up an instrument (even if the lesson is: you need to practice more).

How friendly and cordial folks are to a native Californian here in Southwest Virginia.
TURN OFF'S
Smoking
Lateness
Laziness

ABOUT ME
I've played electric bass since I was 14 (which was quite a while ago) in a variety of bands from punk, power pop and singer-songwriter to bluegrass and contra dance music.

When our Irish Traditional music session lost its guitarist 9 years ago, I bought the guitar on Wednesday and was playing it in public on Saturday. DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!

Haven't been here in a while - whacky personal life and day job rubbish caused temporary musical paralysis. I'm back and aggressively persuing new musical angles.

I like that sound! Reminds me of River Dance - very strong, passionate music! Do you know an Irish male singer - Red Hurley?

I would put some stuff up, but I dont really have any recording equipment available. I'm in high school and poor.
