i'm collin
hello to all of you who need advice (or perhaps would just like to say hi).

(that's where you say "hi collin!" but you don't have to because it might scare the people around you)

i'm a musician. i play bass, violin, mandolin, keyboards, guitars, drums, harmonica, xylophone, and just about everything else. i also sing lead for my band, the dirty fries, in st. louis, missouri.


my advice may be blunt sometimes, but you all will have to deal with it. i speak the truth, and the truth isn't always pretty.


i'll answer anything, too. as long as it's not something really idiotic like "OMG what color shirt should i wear tonight?!" because i don't answer that kind of crap. i'm a strong believer in there being no stupid questions, but honestly, those are not the sort of questions that should be posted on this website. plain and simple.


ask away
-collin



p.s. - anyone wondering where the numbers/letters in my username come from: they're the model number of my acoustic bass guitar.

ok this happened to me when i was studying for finals a couple of weeks ago (private school, we got off before memorial day).

anyway.

just take a break. go play video games, go outside. do something that will take your mind off of it. it's never a bad idea to take a study break.
