I thought it would be nice to know a bit more about eachother. Ok, I admit it - I'm a curious cow. But still, it's fun to get to know people and maybe see a picture...
This is me.
I live in Sweden and work with nature preservation. I'm going to move to a small village just outside of Rochester in England later this year. The music I listen to is mainly sixties psychedelia, seventies rock and prog. I like to do art and webdesign, and read. Preferably beat literature, science books and murder mysteries.
Your turn!

Say michael, you being from Fla. I wondered if you ever saw (or see) the band Captain Beyond. I like their acid-tinged southern rock-oid style, recently bought my second album of theirs. Have a bootleg from as late as '99, too. Pretty cool. I used to have a Great-Aunt & -Uncle down there too, tiny li'l burg near St. Augustine called Hastings.
Anyway, welcome to the group.

Hi Bobinbed,My name is Michael,I Live in Florida,USA.I am married five years now to my beautiful,understanding and life changing wife Janet.I do custom painting mostly of motorcycles and guitars.I like to play my Les Paul guitar(though I am not too good,....yet).I love to go to the beach and be in places of great natural beauty.Trying to go vegan.Suffered many years of my life with opiate dependancy(now in recovery and getting healthier every day!)Love music ofcoarse,and quite a variety from the 60's(70) Psych stuff to Blues to Southern rock to 60-70's Soul,Zydeco,Folk and the other 60-70's rock staples(you know who they are)Maybe it's because I live in the south,But,And believe this or not,I never new of the existence of Love's Forever Changes until now!I knew of only 3 Love tunes that where on the radio thru the years(from Love and Da Capo).So I am discovering this well kept secret from my part of the world.I learned that Love did not tour America other than California and have never come to Florida(though thier labelmates the Doors did).Arthur is from the south like me as well and if the rumours are true and he is in Memphis to perform soon I may get my chance.And by the way....Nice Picture!..........God Bless You...........Michael |

Thats a cool photo of you and Sky,Steve!I was at The Seeds concert in Oslo about half a year ago and that was a surreal experience!Me and a friend came to the small club early and after awhile saw a old and very cheap looking van with foreign plates parking right outside the entrance.People,mainly young girls went in and out of it and the hours went.Then Mr Skymaster walks out of the van goes straight to the pub and orders a pink umbrella drink at the bar,and I can swear there is no one at the club who knows who it is exept me and my friend because we sat by the window and witnessed the van scene!He sits in the pub for about 20 minutes totally unoticed then goes up to the scene to perform a real campy zombie slow version of Cant seem to make you mine,like he was getting a kick out of witnessing all the paralyzed and disappointment looking faces in the crowd,because right from the next track he and the band turned the pace up to at least eleven faster and were just great the rest of the concert! |

Well.
My name is Thomas Galasso and I am 24 years old. I live in Detroit, MI where I was born. I am moving back to California this summer. I used to live in the Bay Area when I was ages 7 through 14.
I am a film actor. I have done a few features, and some short films. I am very much into music. Lots of hip hop, jazz, and rock music and of course older R&B/soul. I am up at www.myspace.com/thomasgalasso, and also on the IMDB.com
I am the co-founder of a rock band calling itself Velvet Audio or Siddhartha depending on who you ask. They just recorded an album with Jim Diamond and currently stand as the top unsigned band in the state of Michigan. They have all the buzz. I would be lying if I said all was wine and roses between that group and myself.
I am a huge fan of The Doors, who were like my gateway into rock music during my high school days. The Who would be next, and then some Led Zepplin and Stereolab. The rest would fall into place.

Mmm, no, sorry that's not it...

...hey just for kicks, I'll send a very special psychedelic cdr--a new, quality fan-made, for-trade-only collection of rarities from a fine 60's band (I'll be surprised if any of you already have this one) to the first one to name the person I mimic in this pic, and exactly where that original photo was used. 
Later, Jon
p.s. you have to post the answer here on the message board, off-list contacts won't count.
