[rotorhead58d]

i'm a bass player now for 30 years. i wish i could make a living at it, but i suck. i do play in bars or at parties occasionally. i play guitar a little. i do home recording with a virtual drummer, and keyboards. it's all on my pc. basically, anything hi tech is for me. price is no object...lol

[t-driver]

I extreme-tune my car(s) for more HP... between flying sessions:Bang

That's funny. Must be great parties.

I like to race go-karts, r/c 1/10th nitro touring cars, r/c planes, fishing, and restore antique cars and motorcycles :smokin:. I'm sort of an eccentric kid compared to my peers.

I play guitar, no where near enough to do in front of people. I like to spend "fun" time with my girlfriend. My son's (when I get them, divorced and all that) and just shooting the poop on a lazy day ranks up there too.

I ride my mountain bike and play airsoft for the exercise and the friendships that I have made.

Thanks buzz... and no I've never done airbushing... with the way I fly, canopies don't survive long :)

Well I also play keyboards in a band (Promo on # http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=265544729 Promo off#) , and have done so in over 30 years, but only as a weekend warrior. I am also totally nuts with old Hammond organs, and own 2 of them.

I am also riding and own two motorcycles, but it have not been to much last year since I started with RC helicopters, my wife, kids, and my old house also need my attention ..... :smokin:

And then I also have to work, my income have to come from somewhere :thumbdown:

Related to my other hobbies.... if you have some spare parts laying around... build one of these:
