Hey guys/girls dudes and dudettes man and woman. My name is (obviously) Rik. Been living in the netherlands for the last 16 years (as that is my age). Been interested in 'a hippie kinda movement' for whole my life now. Started making ty-dyes when I was 8 or something and started decorating all kinds of things with wonderfull colors and peace signs since I was able too and i dont know why! So, Im 16 years old. My general interests are music (from jazz to metal) and making music! And peace. I grew up with vinyl and hippie music (Ten years after *SEEN THEM LIVE! woohoo!*, CSN(&Y), bob dylan, eric clapton. Chocolate watchband, Alquin. Humble Pie etc etc.) But I listen to all kinds of music, just depends on my mood. As I said, I listen to all kinds of music. I play the drums as my main instrument, but I also play guitar, mouth-harp(also know has jew-harp, look for it on google), a bit piano and about every instrument you put in my hands. Im a big fan of Abbie Hoffman. I read a lot of books and Im interested in philosophy (have read most of Nietzsche's books) I woudlnt call my self a hippie (though in my childhood I was all about 'flower power', I dunno, my door is still covered with that stuff) or maybe I would..Other people most certainly do. I play in a "new wave of british heavy metal" band called Crayven and I host a radioshow every friday and saturday night with my friends Dont get scared by the metal though; Im no metal head an neither are my band-mates! I have signed up to this forums 2 years ago or so with another account but I never posted. Today I decided to go and post, but my account wasnt working so here I am. I dont know what to say more and I dont even know if anyone will read this hell of a story! But hey you guys, girls, dudes and dudettes out there. Im here and Im joining you in this wonderfull gathering of hippies, yippys, youngsters and oldies! +1 ! See ya on the forums! - Rik
welcome to the forums finally someone who uses the word dudettes! Radio sounds interesting - i did a bit of radio presenting stuff but nothing regular... and it was a while ago but heh i could talk enough certainly... and lol to the tea fanaticism... Or if fanaticism isnt a word then obsession...
Thanks! Haha, yea, dudes and dudettes man! Radio; yea, its getting pretty popular here in our area. Pretty popular amongst artists too. we had some famous names in our show and we might get Ten Years After somewhere in 2008! What ya did for the radio? Like, what was it? Yea, I really do love tea. If you'd have to wake me up at night for something; it'd be for tea!
