Favorite things: Music - I like music in the
vinyl record format while played on a
direct drive turntable through a set of
JBL speakers,
Phish Food Ice Cream, sun, beaches, LIVE music,
The Simpsons, cutting my own hair, dessert, building things, my dog Otis, good food, and I think doing fun things is fun.

Movies seem to be getting worse and worse and more predictable - so committing 2-3 hours of my life to something that may suck does not happen very often: The Godfather, No Country For Old Men, Fargo, Hoop Dreams, Clerks, Dazed and Confused, Hoosiers, Bronx Tale, Dog Day Afternoon, Platoon...are some good ones. TV is pretty much all reality disasters and scripted shows on network are pretty bad although cable is starting to figure it out. Shows the cut the muster:
The Simpsons, 24 (it's coming back in Summer 2014), Family Guy,
Six Feet Under (RiP), Curb Your Enthusiasm, Seinfeld, March Madness, Homeland, Eastbound and Down anything on
Investigative Discovery...
What else..? oh! Music!
Submitting Music – Please mail a physical CD* (putting your info on the CD is a good idea!) with brief band bio to:
Hey Play My Music!
attn: Darren Rose
3400 West Olive Ave; Suite 550
* I know it's tempting to email an MP3 since it much easier than mailing a CD but when your 6MB song clogs up my in box it will probably just get deleted and I'll think that your band is lazy... Thanks!
