Music makes the world go 'round

About Me

I'm a Chris Cornell/Soundgarden/Audioslave/Concert junkie. I love to go to concerts! My first one was at age 12 and I haven't stopped since. I cannot tell how many concerts I've been to...I lost count long ago.I cannot live without music. It's been my one true companion since I was a wee lass. It does not judge me, only accepts me for who I am.I discovered Soundgarden in 1989 and my life was changed forever. Only good things have come from that discovery. In following Chris Cornell's career through the years, I find myself in a wonderful places full of new experiences and friends all the time.I work in a machine shop, I live in the Bay Area, CA. I spend a lot of time doing not much and sometimes liking it, sometimes hating it. I hope to someday travel to many places far away.I have a small network of friends that I keep close to my heart. Don't we all? ; ) I'm brutally honest and fiercely loyal. I've got no time for bullshit or people who like to lie to get what they think they need. For them, all I have is contempt.To know me is to know someone who without a doubt is completely, 100% REAL.
