About Me

Music is what makes my world turn. Ive been into Punk/No Wave/New Wave/Experimental since the untender age of 11. Ive played in bands since I was Twelve(I Decay, Golliwogg, Slugworth, Dirtnap, Season To Risk, Roman Numerals, Olympic Size & BoyzIImen.) Ive worked in record stores since I was 15 and I have a bad addiction to the smell of old Vinyl records. I have seen enough live shows to make a man deaf. I've booked enough shows to make a man indifferent. I love my friends and my friends love to drink. Jim Beam & 7up with a splash of bitters is what makes me a social retard. Nothing rocks more than a home cooked meal and making out to Chet Baker.

My Interests

Music+Art+Fashion+Food
