Chances are, I'm not better looking than you thought I'd be. My name is Gordon and that was the name given to me at birth and because of it, I was never able to have anything cool with my name on it as a kid. I'm not a car guy, but I think driving is neat...just don't ask me to fix your car, or anything for that matter. In the fifth grade, I started to grow a mustache and didn't shave that badboy until the 8th grade and chicks dug it...they said I looked like their dads. These days, I can grow a mustache just by thinking about it for a little bit.
I've been a Chicago guy my whole life but I couldn't be more stoked to sink my jaws into the world famous WYSP! It is certain though, that I will have no idea where you are talking about when you tell me where you're from. I will get it soon enough though.
I like my music with meaning and with some pace but I'm pretty sure my first CD that I bought on my own was some sort of Ugly Kid Joe album, thus proving that I wasn't ready to purchase music on my own yet. When I was in middle school, a friend's older brother
intervened and gave me a "mix tape" of NOFX, Rancid, Slapstick, and Screeching Weasel and it was all over...a cocky jerk was born. I grew up on Rancid, not the Ramones. I still get giddy about seeing awesome bands in basements or discovering a new favorite band on accident.
Sometimes a band CAN get too big and it DOES change your opinion of them...so I personally enjoy the hunt for new bands. Have a killer band on your radar? Send me an email and let me know.
Don't be a jerk, let me do that. Talk to you soon.
