edcigar's Blurb 
About Me:
i'm cigar. I am a semi/professional musician, audio tech, and all-around awesome guy. I've been playing drums for a little less than 6 years and guitar & bass for about 5. I'm also an audio engineer and help manage a rehearsal/recording studio. I'm a graduate of the Institute of Audio Research, so I try to keep my work as audio oriented as possible, however you can still find me doing stagehand work at bigger local shows (like the Warped Tour). I enjoy playing MarioKart 64.
Who I'd Like To Meet:
Iron Maiden! Cool people. Punk rock broads. Or chicks with the really crazy hair colors. Darth Vader. The Frito Bandito. Whoever marketed Pogs. Josie & the Pussycats. Norman Smiley. Kurt Russell dressed like Snake Pliskin. The Bad Brains. Numerous pornstars. The Transformers. The Repo Man. The guy who invented the JVC Kaboombox. John Madden. Modern day marketing executives, Seth Macfarlane & Dane Cook so I can kick them all in the nuts, cause then I'd be "that guy".

I'm really digging the new Meth & Red album, and I just got Vinnie Stigma's (Agnostic Front/Madball) solo band Stigma's first release, which is pretty catchy.. Been taking a few listens to James Brown's obscure album, Hell. And actually listening to the Drifters a ton this week.
