I'm a life long Chicagoan, northwest sider and enthusiast of sound, radio and music (not necessarily in that order). I've DJ'd at several Chicago community/college radio stations and was one of the founding members of CHIRP. Favorite Kinds of Music - wild gender-bending maniacs, moody Brits, psychotic walls of noise by messy haired weirdos, angry young people with guitars, angry young people with microphones, twisted electronic beats, the punks are writing love songs, the boom-bap and outer space arkestras composing signals to the stars. A list of my ailments - - Early Onset Grumpiness - Chronic Goth Disorder - Bad knees
