These things are always so hard to get started...
Then when you get started... theyre so hard to stop...
So I'll just start from beginning...
Hello to all! I'm Zack from the boring little city we call Toledo. I work the night shift... and I work alot. So with weird hours... being up and working when others sleep... and sleeping when others are working... I've become a bit of a loner. So SG is kind of my social life now a days so I thought I'd tell a bit about myself...
I can talk music to anyone all week. I love it, it's what I live for. Been unfortunatly unsuccessful in getting a band formed thought I've tried for years now. After awhile you kinda begin to wonder if maybe your just hard to work with? So many fellow musicians are out seeking that record label, it's hard to find someone seeking the thrill of simply playing the music your passionate about and not giving a damn about fame and fortune. Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place? I was just warmin up one day, runnin thru some scales. My friend told me "If you ever wanna go anywhere, you gotta drop that Black Sabbath rock music. That's not whats going to get you heard." I'm sorry kids... but I simply refuse...
As far as music tastes... it ranges quite a bit. My first CD was a Beatles greatest hits album and its just gone up and up from there. That's always been a point of pride to me in a way. Alot of people I know went thru their phases. You know... they got these dusty old CD's of 'crap' they used to be so into and are ashamed to admit. I never did. I loved the stuff I love from the start and always will. Just my opinion if you can't atleast appreciate The Beatles... you simply can't appreciate music. Do I have a favorite band? No way. Too many amazing artist for their own amazing reasons to say I have a favorite over the other. Favorite musician however, hands down the late Randy Rhoads... God rest his soul.
Moving on, I love art work. Used to do a little here and their myself in high school. I won best 2D artist my senior year, something I was particularly proud of consider I was always very self conscience about my art work. Guess I'm self conscience about everything I do when it comes down to it, but who isn't? I tell myself every other day to sit down and start drawing again but never bring myself too. Got a couple good ideas too I think, maybe hopefully I'll find enough inspiration to get back into it again.
A little bit more about me, I think I sort of mentioned earlier I live a sort of quiet life... not exactly by choice. But bills gotta be paid ya know? Hard to work full time, at nights at that when your 22 and maintain any sort of social life around here. And hard to get back into the loop when you've been out of it for so long. Just found out the other day one of my best friends in highschool has 2 kids. Kinda sad how distant you get from close friends, it really hits home when you hear something like that and wonder what the hell happened. But as my introduction of myself to anyone reading, I love SG's so far. Browsing through profiles and forums of the members (Official SG's or not) it's amazing how many people out their are into the same things as me. The things I always felt no one in the world liked but me. So I guess even though I have to do it behind a computer screen, I really feel at home here on SG like nowhere else really... and thats an awsome feeling for sure Relationship status? Eh... it's complicated, but none the less there is someone and I'm a one girl type of guy. As lovely as all the girls are on here... particularly the girls with the purple hair... my intentions are simply just good friends.
Thats pretty much my thoughts for the day. So until next time... cheers
