About Me: I'm the boy who never grew up, and yes Peter, :clap::clap::clap: I do believe. I've decided to go back to school to finish my education, majoring in English. We'll see if a muse comes along and decides to inspire me!

Traditional Celtic, Medieval, Rennaisance, Baroque, Southern/Country Rock, Early American folk, a little punk now and then if it's not too angry, a little country now and then if it's not too depressing or preachy

Dislikes: Religious fundamentalism , political partisanship, going along with the crowd instead of thinking independently, making enemies of people who disagree rather than rationally discussing differences. I'm the only American in history that hates macaroni and cheese. Keep it away.
Hobbies: Visiting parks, going to any kind of festival or period reenactment, learning blacksmithing, learning guitar and tin whistle, competing in our local chili cookoff, struggling with our vegetable garden
Vices: Standoffishness, laziness, selfishness, stubborness, and criticizing others for the same things. I just can't seem to turn down the second platefull. I love food!
Virtues: Just get to know me and decide for yourself.
Heroes: Anyone who's ever fought for their freedom (or mine), anyone who dares to stand up for what they believe, anyone who humbly admits their mistakes

Ooo you would probably like Elvenking, then! Also, check out Within Temptation, Nightwish and Leaves Eyes if you haven't heard of them yet. One of my favorite songs ever is Leaves' Eyes "Elegy". It's basically about a Viking lady whose lover is a warrior who has gone off to conquer and she's afraid, while she waits for what seems like forever, that this time he won't be coming home. You can see the video on youtube here: youtube.com/watch?v=UNgOJ...
MandaGetting away from the fantasy symphonic metal, something a little more mellow but with all the attitude would be Rasputina: Chicks cranking out rock and roll with cellos. XD
