Ian MacKaye - "Waiting Room" I am a patient boy I'm in the waiting room But I don't sit idly by I'm in the waiting room My name is Joey Gaber, I'm 16 and I'm from Los Angeles, California. I basically spend all my time listening to music, especially Minor Threat, Fugazi, Embrace, Rites of Spring, Nation of Ulysses, Bad Brains, Braid, and other hardcore punk or emo bands. If you want to talk about music, just PM me, although I doubt it'll really happen. I like writing things besides poetry, but I don't really have anything I'm working on right now. My life is pretty bland other than the few moments of conflict I enjoy on a regular basis with my friends and love interests. I hope everyone that reads my stuff enjoys it. Peace out. | |||||||||
