About Me

I don't like to talk about myself. But I suppose I try to live my life with a degree of kindness, honesty, humor, commitment and discovery. Passion for things I care about. Anger at injustice (a proud liberal). Easily delighted. Pretty laid back and low key. Generally in pleasant spirits most of the time. I like to laugh. I watch a lot of films. And I go to a lot of shows (rock, mostly, but I like classical, jazz, and "other", too). Shows in DC. Shows in NYC. Shows in the UK. *concert traveler* If I love the band or just want to check out someone new, I'm there.
Oh.
And I love to watch breakdancing.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

I find this Myspace thing to be a bit weird and I mainly use it to keep track of music.

The Duke Spirit @ Ottobar

Finally, I got to see one of my favorite bands play a full set. It was well worth the drive up to Baltimore after having just stepped off the plane from Lollapalooza. Loved every minute!

Ah, CMJ. I won't go into the saga of my bus breaking down on the way to NYC and missing the Studio B show in Brooklyn. Who would have thought I'd spend my Friday night in a truck stop outside Baltimor...
