A Little Bit About shank.

I have a feeling that most of the people who come by here don't listen to the same music I do. I don't know why, I could be completely wrong. But in an effort to serve the IntarWeb it's purpose, here are my favorite bands/musicians:

Sublime
O.A.R.
Fiend Without a Face
Classic Jazz - Charlie Parker and Duke Ellington, Dizzie Gillespie, Jellyroll Morton (I'll tell you the story of the phrase 'that Jellyroll Morton shit' sometime, just remind me), even the big band stuff. Mmm-mmm!
Acoustic Syndicate
Less Than Jake

There are a multitude of generes I listen to, and I tried to stay away from them, but I had to add the classic jazz. It's different from modern jazz. Mostly because I hung out with Winton Marsalis one night, and he was a prick. Prick!

I know no one listens to the stuff I do. Peanuts and corn... www.peanutsandcorn.com
That's my hip hop hookup.

I dig alot of surf guitar, reggae, and anything I can find on vinyl. Love my turntables.
www.myspace.com/dortchmcgirken has a scratch mix I made. Big music fan here.

Ya know, Wynton isn't really modern jazz, he's still stuck playing a mixture (mostly) old 40's jazz. If you listen to the way he plays trumpet you can hear a lot of Louis Armstrong. I've also heard he can be a prick.
