Greetings!

[pogonrudie]

I'm new here, the name's pogonrudie (or, well, Aaron). I'm a songwriter and music encyclopedia from San Diego, CA. I'd list among my favorite artists:

Jens Lekman
Drive-By Truckers
Morrissey/The Smiths
Anything Nick Cave does
Sleater-Kinney
Tom Waits
A Tribe Called Quest
Boris
Simon & Garfunkel
Ween
Magnetic Fields
Jonathan Richman
Prince

Also, a link to my band is in my profile, for anyone interested...I spend most of my time trying to write something as beautiful as "It Makes No Difference" by The Band.

I'm also an enormous lover of films, preferably boring black and white ones from another country (and preferably Sweden). Though I'd name my two favorite genres as horror (gory/cerebral, conventional/subversive, good/bad...I like em all, baby) and musicals (pretty much anything from the classics to, erm, Rent). Some favorite films of mine:

The 400 Blows
Eraserhead
28 Days Later
Fiddler On The Roof
The Bicycle Thief
The Killing
Jacob's Ladder
The Man Who Fell To Earth
Little Shop Of Horrors
Hour Of The Wolf
Sunshine
Moulin Rouge!
The Apartment
Dawn Of The Dead
Return Of The Living Dead
In Cold Blood
Treasure Of The Sierra Madre

So, erm, hello! Sorry if this post is too long

Man, I don't like the boring ones, I only like the good ones.

Welcome.  Your music tastes seem to me to fit you right in to the scene here, unlike me.

Yeah you'll fit in like a non-sore thumb

Excellent! Just you wait until all of the sick and depraved debauchery starts!
