ABOUT ME

playing music with my bands (Good Cpt. Jak and LooseDick), drinking beer with my friends, enjoying life... I don't like to worry and usually I don't...

PHILOSOPHY

:) stay positive

"It is awfully hard work doing nothing. However, I don't mind hard work where there is no definite object of any kind"

"work is the curse of the drinking classes"

Músicas, Filmes e Livros

Music: If you haven't noticed by now - I'd say music is one of the most important things in my life! I love listening to music and am always on the lookout for good bands so if you know a band you feel I should know, please tell me...:)
Mostly I listen to (Delta-)Blues, Swing, Jazz, Punk, Indie, Gypsy-Swing, Irish music... For partying I like electronic music in rund down clubs, (dark) deep house mostly

just to name a few bands I like: Tom Waits, Kaizers Orchestra, Little Dragon, The Velvet Underground, Django Reinhardt, Duke Ellington... and at the moment my favourites : Adult Jazz and C.W. Stoneking!

Movies: Fight Club, Lucky Number slevin, Snatch....
series:The IT crowd, Sherlock, Breaking Bad...

Books: a lot, at the moment my favourite authors are Nick Hornby and Kurt Vonnegut. I can't stop myself laughing out loud when I'm reading, doesn't matter where I am :)

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I've done and seen lots of amazing things, want to go skydiving(correction: been skydiving last week and it was great! correction:last week was in 2010 and I have done and seen a lot of amazing things since!)

Finishing an Instruments always feels great, hearing the first notes being played on it is just sublime...

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

well...
"Education is an admirable thing, but it is well to remember from time to time that nothing that is worth knowing can be taught"
"Everybody who is incapable of learning has taken to teaching"

"Quotation is a serviceable substitute for wit."

that's enough for "wit" and definitely more than enough quotes...:) anyway, all of the quotes on my profile are from the same guy...if you can tell me by whom without googling it I'll be impressed ;) (and I might buy you a beer)

well, I could teach the basics of playing Bass, or some banjo and guitar

I want to improve my Spanish, so if you're from a Spanish-speaking country please send your request in Spanish... (not too difficult please ;) my spanish really isn't that good yet...)
