Hey all you people!

Hey everyone,
My name is Dylan Jacobus, and I'm new! I've already read the rules and the welcoming posts, so I've got that covered.
I guess I'll start off with a little about myself and what kind of music is in my life. My favorite band since literally before I can remember has always been Rush. They've always been #1 for me, but I always have other "favorites" that I get really wild about, like Damiera, Moneen, and Incubus. I'm usually a rock guy, but I like really smart pop artists like Justin Timberlake and Marina and the Diamonds as well.
I play and write music myself too! My "band" is called Cephalopods And Their Allies, and I have music up on Bandcamp if you want to hear it. I put the word "band" in quotes because I write and play everything myself (except the drums on my most recent CD). Usually I would play solo shows, but I do have a live band now, and we're looking to play out anywhere around NJ (we're all 21, by the way).
My current guitar is a Spalted Maple Telecaster Custom HH that I've been playing since 2009 and I love it to death. I'm making payments on a standard Strat right now though too. Something about Fender guitars really drives me wild, which is funny because I used to play bass mostly and I hated Fender basses, so I always had a grudge against them until I picked up that Tele.
So I guess that's all I really have to say about me and music! I hope I'm making a good impression!
