I am here for Friends

About Me

lawyer by day, DJ by night. well, ok, i'm a DJ on days when the real DJs are sick or on vacation. i'll take what i can get - i love kexp. just walking in the door makes me one happy girl. i think its the scent of all that delicious vinyl making me giddy.

My Interests

MUSIC, my amazing friends, my dj shifts at kexp, my FOUR cats (two were a package deal with my new husband, we're like the brady bunch except i don't think cindy showed her frustration with bobby by peeing in the bathtub), road trips, road trips to see shows are even better, awesomely bad movies, breakfast at the triple rock...i miss minneapolis

I'd like to meet:

i'm always looking for new music to play.Bands/promo people: please send music to: DJ Jo, KEXP, 113 Dexter Ave, Seattle, WA 98109

Music:

getting access to the kexp library is pretty much the best thing that has happened since i moved to seattle...i have new favorite bands every day. some of my long term favorites include dillinger four, jawbreaker, jets to brazil, weakerthans, new pornographers, magnetic fields, neutral milk hotel, replacements, descendents, all, avail, bob mould, elected, morphine, superchunk, portastatic, the wedding present...so many others....

Movies:

rejected, office space, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, being john malkovich, lost in translation, high fidelity, bridget jones' diary, anything with an airplane crash - I have a ridiculous fear of flying I like to indulge. i fly all the time. i don't know what my problem is.

Television:

i got tivo and now i hardly ever watch tv...it's weird. but sometimes when i can't sleep in the middle of the night i'll watch something tivo has picked for me. i love that tivo picks things it thinks i might like. and it is right so often - apparently tivo knows me better than most guys i've ever dated. or maybe tivo is just more invested in getting me what i like...

Books:

that's not my lion
