About me

Gender Female
Occupation Student/Cat Herder
Location Sonoma County, California, United States
Introduction ***I'm starting to get into promotions...if you're interested in booking a small show in the North San Francisco Bay or Central Valley, contact me (see above). More information soon.***

So. I talk incessantly about music, as I love a VERY wide variety of styles and am always interested in hearing something new. I love live shows and go to as many shows as I can afford to. If you think I'd like something, please drop me a line in the comments, or send "durasoul" a "yahoo".

I'm doing this blog in hopes of improving my writing by sort of following the advice (of Joseph Brodsky?), "Write. Write every day. Write badly, but write!"
