As they say I've been around (wink wink nudge nudge)... as in logged over 100,000 miles through the US, canada, and mexico on a train, motorcycles, and even an RV... what did you think I meant??? I was on the road playing guitar and drums for a touring show. I will leave the rest for later because you probably won't believe me until I show some pictures... After 6 years away I am back once again to the greatest city in the world. This is my 3rd time back and I hope that old saying is true.

I am bold, sarcastic, passionate, and above all live by the creed of honesty, integrity, and trust. I have been to hell and back but in doing so have come through the other side as a more balanced and aware person. I have very high standards for myself and seem to expect the same from the rest of the world. When it comes to woman I have always settled for who was there instead of going after what I wanted. I can say with confidence I am not a typical "guy" and have talents and life experience that make for interesting and enriching interactions. I believe that most people are not honest with themselves about who they are and what they want which only leads to fragile relationships. I don't need a woman to complete me, I want a woman to compliment me. I have finally come to terms with a basic fact about who I am... everything I do is a 15 on a 10 scale. It seems that all around me quality is on the decline and in many cases a 5 or 6 is fine for most... I hope to find a woman that meets or exceeds me on every level, that is worthy of who and what I am. I am human and have my faults like everyone else. I can only hope to find someone that wants to be with me, every part of me, not just the convenient parts. There was a great quote from a member of this site... "If you can't be there for me in my worst times, you don't deserve me in my best times."

my biggest passions in life are music, motorcycles, and women. I am not ashamed to say I appreciate the female form... I think all women are beautiful in their own way, but it's usually the eyes that catch me and keep me. The eyes are the window to the soul... I play guitar, bass, drums, sing, record, write, produce, basically anything that involves sound. I like to call it musical A.D.D... I am addicted to learning and seem to have a way of picking up instruments and learning them. Oddly enough I've made a living playing drums in recent years but still don't "feel" like a drummer... someone once told me I was a pretty good drummer for being a guitar player. When asked which instrument I prefer, I can never give a definite answer... I like them all and it depends on what mood I'm in or what muse is moving me at that moment...

I am looking for someone that I want to spend time with, someone that makes me smile, makes me happy, keeps my body mind and soul always wanting more. I have so much energy and passion to share and I do believe there is someone out there for me.

Since this profile business is pretty much a one way dialogue, I will describe what I am looking for...

intelligence, whit, sarcasm, humor, humility, passion, talent, a hunger for learning new things about the world and about yourself. You are confident in who you are as a human being and as a woman but you are not uptight or snobby.... there is a fine line between c o c k y and confident and nothing turns me off more than a beautiful woman who struts around like she owns the world...

My user name is one of my favorite albums. Bonus points if you have even heard of the band... double whammy bonus points if you actually like the band and listen to them...

Dates are so 1950's... reminds me of sock hops and leave it to beaver. No expectations is my policy of choice. Vibe and energy can't be faked... whether it's coffee, a drink, dinner, whatever if there is a connection then the rest will go where it needs to. I have a question I like to ask... how many pairs of shoes do you own and how many of them are black???
