I dig music. Lots of different kinds of music. I love discovering new music, but I don't reject the old and classic. I play guitar and played around the clubs in Toronto for 10 years in an indie / alternative band. I enjoy reading many blogs and decided to start this one to share some of my taste and opinions. I hope you enjoy it and maybe even discover something new and exciting!
