#9 The Ocean

A straight up necessity of my life.

I will never live in a landlocked state. Ever.

# 8 SUBLIME

The music that defined my adolescence.

The sound that I will never be sick of hearing.

They are my damn band.

One love Bradley!

#7 Block Island

Block Island, Rhode Island is the most beautiful place on earth...I don't even care that I haven't seen a lot of this earth and make that distiction.

Its where I *grew* up each summer, where every memory of it is GOOD, where the air feels cleaner and my life feels blessed when I am there.

Its were I started my new family with Brandino, and shared it with people that I love dearly.

Keep a candle in the window for me Block Island.....I will come home soon.

# 6 The Quinnipiac River

I am surprised by its effect on my mood every single time I look out of my windows.

It is my backyard...and I love it.

#5 A Broken Umbrella

This Collective of inspiring individuals who have reinforced for me my calling as an artist and this internal belief that things fall into place for some greater *divine* purpose.

They are the shapes, the makes, the mystics and the muses......and to quote Jose Rivera

"We speak in tongues while others speak in fortune cookies".

#4 My Mother

What can I say about mothers that hasn't already been said... She gave birth to me 30 years ago, and she remembers it like it was yesterday. I am a big event for her, but so are her other children.

She, however, is the ONLY mother I will ever have. There is something terrifying, and absolutely magical about that thought.

She is my only- and knows me sometimes when I don't know myself.

Oh- and I should mention- a total rock star to boot!
