Personal Information

Biography

I've been a huge music geek for nearly 30 years and I'm currently on my third stint as a DJ.   When I lived in Phoenix briefly in the mid 90s, I booked dozens of bands at various places, including the legendary Tempe dive Cannery Row, which was the last bastion of hipster culture near Mill Ave. in Tempe before it was completely sold out to corporate interests. I still like to put shows on, typically just for special occasions. I put on some shows in the last few years at Club Congress called the Comedy Fiasco. 
I've also published a bunch of articles about music in various low budget publications in Phoenix, Tucson, and SoCal.
