The other day I was checking on stuff here and I took note my first hater comment ever. Out of 15 years of songwriting I only have one bad comment. What makes me wonder is do the people that post things like that even have any basic understanding of music. I wouldn't care normally, but it seems really disrespectful to post a hater comment on a song that I nearly died during the making of it. If you are wondering which song I am talking about it my cover of the prelude of FF7 that is here on newgrounds. At the time I was working on I had a really bad tooth which the Dr. told me had I not gotten help I would have died from it. The right side of my face looked like I had been in a really bad bar fight. The Dr. said you can get something like that even if you brush everyday. So while I was sick I went ahead and worked on schoolwork. When I was done with that I worked on the song to help myself stay awake long enough to make sure the medicine was working on my tooth. I know no one really cares about all this but this is to show all non musicians out there, that there are some wild things that happen during the making of a song. Personally I would like to see the haters play that song with 101 fever and whacked out on pain medicine, just saying.

There is a new song up by the way, and a update on me and my family. We are doing better than we were, somethings are hard to do. My mom has to take care of all my uncles stuff now that he is gone. Its hard on her but we are getting thru it.

Thats all I got for today. Love, peace, and doughnuts.

Last tuesday we laid my uncle to rest. He died of a massive heart attack, so you all can probably guess how I feel right now. I will have one winged angel done soon. I just got to get thru this first. If any of you guys out hate going to the Dr. well you need to take care of your self or your family could end up with a burden they were not ready for. Thank all of you stoping by to check out my music, I can't thank all of you enough. All I ask is for anyone to give me a listen.

My channel is now only music under my stage name "Everyman". I know no one watches anyway or gives a dame what I have to say. Just because of the way I look. Well that is your loss I am a awesome person to know and have as a friend. Even if i am trapped for ever in the friend zone, I still am a better man than most guys out there. I can say that with no ego. But if you like my music please stop by and listen if you have the time. You may just like what this quasimodo has to say. This sucks too the movie I wrote will never be filmed oh well.

If anybody needs any kind of audio work, Please send me a PM. I am easy to work with. I have skills with most DAW's and Music composition. I have access to professional level equipment a long with the skills to use it effectively. Also if anyone here needs a male voice actor i have some ability preforming that as well.

If anyone has any cover tune suggestions please feel free to contact me with them.

Here is where you can listen to my music and if you like it download it. (We all got to eat somehow right?)

I am from McLean TX, where I currently reside. I moved there from Amarillo TX several years ago and I attended school in McLean entering 6th grade and graduated from McLean high school in 2002. My experience with music began when I was in Horse Mann middle school back in 1995. Where I played in band. My instrument was the baritone a low-key brass instrument. After moving to McLean, I was kind of sad. The school there had no band, only choir. When I turned sixteen I received my first guitar. My mom worked overtime and then some to buy it, seeing that I had some kind of gift for music. And from there it takes off. I wore that guitar out learning how to play it. I'm self-taught; I had to learn from books, as my mom couldn't afford to pay for music lesions. I have played in bands performing rock music in the area that I live in; I am quite versed in different styles of music including Rock, Classical, Blues, Pop, Alternative, Punk, Metal and Techno. I can play just about anything stemming from the fact that I learn by ear. Allowing me to also learn bass, piano, and drums.
That's not all I am an artist in my spare time. Some of my hobbies are, marshal arts, and I build pin and paper RPG games for my friends, and of coarse gaming. April 19, 2008 I preformed with a band in Pampa TX the first time I ever played in that town before. At that time I was going a phase in my life where I had reached a crossroads and was trying to figure out what I want to do in life. I had a lot of doubts about the show at that time my family was the only people that had herd me play so I didn't know what was going to happen But when I started playing a song I wrote called in the style of a bard. People started chanting my name something that has never happened before in my life. I thought that I would be booed off the stage. To my surprise my band was a hit. I have had little luck with every job I have had. But that day I discovered that I have a gift and I should share it with everyone and not keep it to myself. The name of my band is Everyman. Why? Because I've been thru some very hard times in my life. I've been hurt and beaten down and put down my whole life and thru it all I have persevered and overcome. I want to shear my story with everyone so that you will know. That when life has beaten you down. You can overcome and defeat hopelessness and depression, Cause I have been there. Faith, Hope, Love, Courage. Always keep your head up and ignore the haters there just jealous of you anyway.
