My name is Jeff.I'm a DJ, and one was one of the rotating DJ's @ RESURRECTION/Barcode/Etc. in Las Vegas, a huge: sports fan, old school wrestling fan("kayfabe") and all Detroit sports teams, I once got arrested for "Mopery", I have 2 older sisters, Music has been such an important part of my life for the past 25 years, I've been guilty of being called an "'80s geek" by friends and GF's. I've yet to meet anyone who's as passionate about '80s music as I am. If you are(I know you're out there), I'd like to meet and add you. I'm very passionate about being on the radio someday, I'd like to host my own '80s radio show someday, I'm very passionate about Morrissey and his music and appreciate others who are equally as passionate about him, (Morrissey fans have a unique bond I think), I'm a proud member of Cauliflower Alley Club, a proud grad of the Academy of Radio Broadcasting 2003, and I think all the people I went there with are good people, talented and friends & I wish them the best in life(If you get something in radio, don't forget the Big Fella?), I'm a huge Morrissey/Smiths/Journey/DM/Cure/Bauhaus/Duran/Sisters/Sioux sie/Icehouse/Soft Cell/Flock Of Seagulls/KISS/ETC fan. I'm also a fan of Industrial music, most goth music,'90s music(a little), I've had the great pleasure and honor of meeting Morrissey(former lead singer of the Smiths) on two occasions,(he's a very nice and classy person & a sweetheart of a guy), I'm a very laid back person& I don't get upset too easily, I hate to fight with anyone, My friends I can consider lifelong!, I once lived in Glendale, CA., my favorite record stores are: Record Time in East Pointe, Mich(Harry Rules!!),and Amoeba Records in L.A.(you gotta go), and Zia Records in Sin City(Craig is good people). I've had 3 articles published in different magazines/newspapers,I'm not very political,I'm hoping to live long enough to see my beloved Detroit Lions win a friggin SB(someday baby!!), I've DJ'd in Michigan,Canada & now Las Vegas(does that make me an "international DJ?"), Jim McMahon should be president of the US & I'd like to land an on air gig somewhere, but it's becoming increasingly impossible due to modern technology, I like golf,I've co-hosted 3 pro wrestling radio shows, I like and spin MOSTLY 80's music(as It's all I pretty much listen to), so if you have a club, or an "80s night", I'm your man.Listen to my yahoo '80s station, just click on the link and enjoy!!

My take on these new discs:

Siouxsie-Mantaray-Good stuff. A little too poppy for my taste from Siouxsie, but it's good. if you don't like Poppy music, then this disc isn't for you. Old school goth fans should pick it up, if only...
