About me:

Check out my site, Side One: Track One

Side One: Track One

By the way, if you're a band I will admit that sending me a friend request is useless. I get a huge volume of emails and requests every day, and the way that I review things is based on actual songs, not Myspace Profiles. This means that your best bet is to send me an email with an MP3 attached. For that information visit the Contact section of my site.

On the other hand, if I've written about you then add away and send a message or three. I'd love to talk more.

Who I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet all of the people who have done anything that I have ever obsessed over. If that would not be possible to arrange I would settle for Scarlett Johansson and $50.
