-I am a freshman at the University of Montevallo. Double major Music Ed./Trumpet Performance. I play the trumpet and piano.

-I have a girlfriend, Becky, of 3 years.

-I love to listen to music. My favroite type of music is probably...Contemporary Christian. I love to d-load music, even thought it is illegal. I don't see anything wrong with it. *shrugs*

-I am a big musical fan. As of now my favorite musical is the Music Man. The new one with Matthew Broderick as the Music Man sucked!!! If you wanna see a good Music Man, rent/buy the one with Robert Preston. Another one of my favorites is Phantom of the Opera which I took my girlfriend to see for her 16th birthday. She cried when she got the tickets because Phantom of the Opera is her favorite. Another one of my favorites even though I have never seen it...is... Rent. The music for Rent is AWESOME. You should listen to some of it. Another one of my favorite musicals is Aida. I saw the original Broadway cats of Aida. It was wonderful. Saw it at Fox theatre in St. Louis, Missouri.
