Howdy- Max Kaufman

Hi All,
      My name is Max, I am for the most part, a pretty typical 16 year old. I have one younger sister, Lily, who is currently a Freshman at Henry Clay (whoopee). My life is for the most part consumed by music. Ever since I could talk I have been mesmerized by music. Contrary to my love for music I have always despised lessons. For whatever reason they have always seemed to take the fun out of playing an instrument. So I have taught myself to play piano, bass, guitar, and most recently harmonica. I am currently in two bands, the most active band I'm in is currently called the Musty Collars. One of my bandmates is Kevin, who plays the drums, I mostly play the bass.
     Aside from music I don't do a whole lot (never been a huge sport guy). But I did have a very exciting summer. The highlight was for sure going to Bonnaroo, a four day long music festival in Tennessee. I went with Emmet who along with Kevin is coincidentally in this class period. Words cannot describe the amount of fun we had, I am already counting the days until 'Roo 2015. To be off topic I think I would be able to teleport like the people from the movie Jumper. As far as being "nerded out" I've already mentioned music but more specifically Jack White is a remarkable human being. Personally I'm not a huge fan of his newest LP "Lazaretto" I'm more interested in The White Stripes era music of his.
    To close I don't really have much of a favorite web site but I think the most useful would be http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/

Below are a picture of me getting my first guitar (although I didn't learn to play until recently). As well as that there is a video of a Musty Collars improv jam. My apologies for the most likely god awful video quality.
