Well, hi there. My name is Ryan, welcome to my first attempt at this whole blogging thing. I don’t particularly like writing about myself, but I’m going to give it a shot.

As the title of the site suggests, I am a musician, gamer, and an avid vaper (e-cigarette user). Music has been a huge part of my life since before I could even walk. My dad is a guitarist, bassist and a singer so naturally I grew up to love music. He raised me on -70’s and -80’s rock/metal, and I own my own self-build home studio. I mainly play guitar but also love to play bass, drums, some wind instruments and as of the last few years have been really into singing/vocals.

Video games are one of my biggest passions in life. I love all sorts of games, but mostly grew up with the amazing things Nintendo had to offer in the 1990’s and early 2000’s. One of my earliest memories is watching my parents play Super Mario World for the Super NES in our living room, so it’s been with me almost as long as music has. Video games are how I met most of my friends in elementary school, especially through Pokemon Red and Blue versions. Video games are still how I make most of my friends, but it’s mostly online these days through games like Team Fortress 2, Counter Strike: Global Offensive or Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.

In the last few years I have taken up a new hobby that appeals to the tinkering/building part of my brain, which is vaping or using electronic cigarettes. It’s allowed me to make a lot of amazing friends and keep m away from tobacco products. If you smoke and wish to quit without the harshness of cold turkey, I and many of my close friends would highly recommend looking into vaping. It’s overall cheaper, much healthier and proven to be much less addictive.

Thanks for taking time to read the ramblings of a boring madman!
