About Me

Long story long: My name is Paige. I'm a starving singer/songwriter/guitar-player/hopeless romantic who often spends time waiting tables at dead end jobs. I listen to music as constantly as I can (that is when crackheads don't steal my cd players). I attend Sinclair Community College and major in Creative Writing (and no, I don't know what the hell I'm going to do with that, and yes, I know it will invariably lead me to being broke.) I go to college as a formality and a backup plan, as all I really want to do is make music. Unfortunatly, there are these things called bills. And you have to pay them. and so on and so forth. I'm in a band currently (Tabloyd) based out of Cincinnati Ohio, and I also do acoustic work http://www.myspace.com/paigedoesdayton . Long story short: music, girls, friends, honesty, love, passion, words, collared shirts, crown royal, insomnia----in no peticular order
