Daylife/Nightlife
- Head host at Max's of Manila,Quarterlife,myspace,and other online profiles where my omnipresence and ubiquity are unchallenged :P,watching dvds,contemplating random thoughts
Playing gigs, Jack Daniels (in a glass of ice or from the bottle itself, it don't matter to Franchi$e), the gift from the earth that is of the greatest worth, billiards, hanging with friends at house parties or clubs (whatever the occasion calls for). Clubs include Key Club/Spider Club/The Day After/Basque (RIP)/Shag/Hollywood & Highlands to name a few
about me.
Artistically, I am primarily a guitarist and songwriter. Much of the stuff recorded is from earlier work. My newest songs have yet to be recorded. Enjoy the portfolio and if you'd like to see more take a gander at MY WORKS.
I'm my biggest fan and harshest critic.
"I consider myself to be a sensitive, intelligent human being, but with the soul of a clown that forces me to blow it at the most crucial moments." - Jim Morrison
A hopeless romantic patiently awaiting my soul's counterpart who shares in my passion for music and art.

Anyway, hope all is well with you.
How's the music going?
I've posted a short story and a set of lyrics in the critique thread, if you get a moment feel free to rip them to shreds ;)
Yeah we're connected for sure but I'm not doin' so good. I mean I'm not sick or anything cuz I don't do sick, I just haven't been myself. Why you ask? Well mostly cuz I haven't been practicing what I preach lately, but I'm okay. I'm gonna give the forums a "rest" but I'll still be around.
Later my friend.
I didn't know it before but the letter q is the second rarest used letter in the English language. Kinda explains me huh? hehehe I don't really worry about you too much cuz I know you're always gonna be okay. I just hope you know that. Things haven't been exactly peachy lately - mostly lack of inspiration, but I'm hangin' in there. :-) I like the new tunes, especially Zelda and Living the Dream but it would be nice if you could hear the lyrics ... ya know? :-)
Anyway, good to hear from ya buddy.
So your brain’s in the shitter huh? I can relate to that. My question is – what are ya doin’ about it? It’s not like you to sit around feelin’ sorry for yourself and I hope that’s not the case.
As for hitting the bottom ... been there, done that ... more than once. What’s important is knowing where the bottom is. :-)
Once again – it’s a good thing we live so far apart, otherwise I’d have to kick your ass.
So whataya been doin' with yourself?
