My biggest influence is nirvana. I can't explain how happy their music makes me. Other than nirvana, I really love the eyeliners, the Ramones, the pixies, bad religion, bratmobile, loudermilk, alice in chains, REM, veruca salt, the white stripes, the distillers, and babes in toyland.
Stuff that rocks: "verse, chorus, verse" by nirvana (my favorite song!); $3 pizza; that French card game Jon has; the book "the perks of being a wallflower"; anything written by Emily Dickinson or Robert Frost; the music recyclery for employing me; WARG 88.9fm for being the first and only station to play puppy skruff- how cool!!!!
