About Me
I'm happily married to a wonderful librarian lady. I have a decent job, and a modest house, and I enjoy photography, art museums, and off beat and obscure anything be it food, films, places, music, or whatever.I enjoy playing a little guitar and am currently taking lessons. Right now I'm in the very unpolished and need lots more practice before anyone would be able to tolerate listening to me stage. Hardly being much of a musician, I just love good music, and among my favorites is the complex, intricate and texturally rich, diverse and beautiful Progressive Rock genre.Live music is the best. As long as it's well performed, I'm open to many different styles. I'm trying to do some blogging to keep track of the concerts I see this year.
