Eric Shawle

(Nightmare neighbor turned friend and maybe more?) Eric is your nextdoor neighbor in your college campus apartment and at first glance he’s the most stereotypical punk bad boy metalhead music major there is. Not to mention a total nightmare; bad attitude, practicing guitar all the time, unapologetic, and aggressive. But perhaps there’s more to him? A gentler side hidden under all the gruffness. And maybe a reason for the way he acts. One night, tired of hearing his guitar, even if he is quite good, you head over to knock on his door and ask him to quiet down, knowing full well that it’ll likely result in a door slammed in your face and louder music like before. But maybe you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
