I'm Dave a.k.a. the Machine Whipkey. I'm a rock/metal musician in Longview,tx. I'm a college graduate from Kilgore College and i'm currently a chemist/operator for LeTourneau Industries. I've been in bands such as Trail of Ashes, Broken: As Designed, NDR, and my solo project The Dialectic. I'm a vocalist, guitarist, and drummer. Currently i'm not in a group but looking to sing for one. I am a spiritual person and trying to get my life back in line from a nasty divorce where my ex wife had an affair with a "trusted" friend of mine. It tore me up prettybad cuz i'm the type of person that puts everyone before myself. I'm 6'8", muscular build, hazel eyes, pretty much keeps my hair cut very very short but I always wear a hat, lol. I'm looking for a woman that appreciates tattoos and piercings and loves rock. Music is on,y music but it would be cool to find someone into the groups i'm into. Me as a person: i'm not an aggressive person unless made to be. Put an animal in a corner and it will defend itself. I'm very trusting until given a reason not to. I'm a physically emotional person, which makes wanting to hold back anything physical difficult until I really fall for whoever i'm talking to. I'm all about respect and a persons word. If you break your word to me I almost will never trust you again. I judge people by their actions, not their word or image. Of course I want to be attracted to whoeverI try to be with but i'm not all about image. I'm all about heart and respect. Respect my beleifs, morals, and appreciate me for who I am and I will do the same for you.
