hide and seek with tim lopez

Tim Lopez 1

Where in the world is Tim Lopez?

Plain White T’s guitarist Tim Lopez is a mysterious man. But we’ve done some research, and if he ever goes missing, we know some good places to check. Here are 10 places we’ll be looking:

1) The garage: He’s restoring a vintage Triumph Bonneville motorcycle, as well as an old truck his grandfather left him.
2) The surf: The Santa Barbara native loves to wakeboard.
3) The streets: Tim was a high school skate rat.
4) The guitar room: The man owns 28 guitars (and counting — he loves to collect gear).
5) The Lone Star State: Tim just moved to Austin, Texas.
6) His bed: He likes to sleep late.
7) Any Mexican restaurant in the area: He loves good Mexican food.
Cool Spain (this might take some time): Tim’s ancestors are Spanish, and he’s looking forward to a visit someday.
9) Any Tom Petty concert: Tim’s favorite band.
10) Onstage: Well, he IS in a band, after all!

What’s the first place you’d look for Tim?

ten things you don't know about de'mar hamilton 1. He's been sailing with the Kennedys. 2. He's either nocturnal or just an insomniac: De'Mar blogs at 5am. 3. He loves Common Projects brand shoes. 4. He has the Nudie Jeans bible on his wish list. What's the Nudie Jeans bible? You mean you don't know? 5. If given the opportunity, he'd rather not hold a koala, thank you very much. 6. He spent the Grammys feeling very, very hungry. 7. He (along with the Plain White T's) is on the same UK record label as bad boy Pete Doherty. 8. He's an excellent amateur photographer.
