about

i love music. so should you.

this is my (mostly) music blog. i wanted a space where i could wax poetically about all the bands and artists i love. (my heart and my cd collection is v. v. big.) you'll also find a smattering of writing related things, since that's what i'm doing these days, along with other pop culture miscellanea.

things you need to know: i live in chicago, but i used to live in new york city. i go to a lot of shows. i stopped being ashamed of my musical tastes a long time ago. the first time i heard "eleanor rigby" by the beatles, i was nine years old and i still get goosebumps when i hear those opening strings. i sing - trained in opera, musical theater, and everything in between.

i'm not very country, i'm mostly rock and roll.

benedict cumberbatch and gary oldman in tinker, tailor, soldier, spy.
this was one of the best movies i’ve seen in quite sometime.  admittedly, it’s got a lot of elements that i love individually - spies, it’s a period movie, a metric ton of amazing british actors, and john lacarre.  luckily, they all came together in a perfect storm of excellence.

9. the corner of e. chicago and n. michigan ave.
had my first job interview today and i only got a tiny bit lost. i’m gonna count that as a win. after i was done, i walked up north michigan avenue for a while and browsed in the shops and dodged the tourists.
