CURRENT MISSION

To have a rich, enjoyable life with great memories.

ABOUT ME

Well, my name's Brendan. I'm a very pleasant, albeit sometimes odd and quirky, type person. I have a gentle nature, but I DO enjoy rowdy parties. I'm very agreeable and easy to get along with. I like meeting new people and broadening my horizons.

PHILOSOPHY

Do it for the lulz

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't yet.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ok, the funny thing is, that i'm only learning about this site very recently, and i've hosted/been hosted by other people a few times already.
I decided I wanted to go to Nebraska, and through the miracle of THE INTERNETS, I found someone to let me stay at there house for 2 nights and had a great time. 2 years later that person needed to come to Chicago and I was happy to put her up.

Interests

Just like everyone else in the world, I like music a lot. I sing and play guitar. I'm mostly into metal and all it's uncountable sub-genres, but any conversation about music in any form is always enjoyable.
I love to laugh, so anything funny is always great. My sense of humor is very broad.
I like hearing other people's thoughts and insights.
I like video games.
I like Mudkips.
I like to party.

Music, Movies, and Books

Just to give you a general idea, here is a sampling: Billy Madison, Gummo, Kids, The Departed, Gremlins 2, The Karate Kid, Caddyshack, Star Wars episodes 2-5...maybe 6.
Poison Idea, Iron Maiden, Symphony X, Spiral Architect, The Aquabats, In Flames. It'd be futile to try describe what makes me like something about music. Something usually just catches me. There's a lot...
The Picture of Dorian Gray, Brave New World, Breakfast of Champions, I Am America (and so can you)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My band has played some sweet shows recently. I could understand this seeming trivial to someone else, but as someone who is really into performing, it's awesome to see a crowd of people go nuts and to be providing the soundtrack to the madness.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm not really sure at this point...I can teach you guitar?
