I was born in a snowstorm in northern West Virginia and transported to central Michigan in the back of a wood-paneled station wagon at the start of the 1980s. I've been pissed ever since.

music - social change - radical politics - personal change - precious moments of joy - understanding sorrow - laughing until it hurts.

Become an SFA Sustainer!

Detroiters. People who know what's up, but still have a sense of wide-eyed hope. Someone to be the Big Spoon. Someone who can connect me to more female performers and musicians and mcs. People who are authentically themselves, that's so cool to be around. Someone who'll walk with me when everyone's biking. Still looking for friends with great music collections. 3
