Personal Note I write reviews, occasionally conduct interviews -- but I'm a writer, through and through, and that's what I love most about working here: freedom for my passion!
Interests There's a reason as to why I am a staffer here: I love music. Everything! I grew up on oldies and heavy metal, so my tastes go far and wide. I tend not to be too negative in my regard for music, since everything grows on me with time. I am also a big sports fan, and I love the Seattle teams I grew up with: Mariners, Seahawks, Sonics, Huskies - they're part of my reason for living! I'm an easy-to-please kind of guy: I like to go to shows and watch the bands, go to bars and talk to people, and just have a simple lifestyle without too many hassles.

Inside AP.net
Biography At the moment, I live in Ellensburg, a small college town in Washington State, where I attend Central Washington University with my beautiful girlfriend, Sarah. I am majoring in Film & Video Studies with a minor in Creative Writing. I hope to be a successful writer in any format, whether its humor books, screenplays for film and TV or whatever gets me recognition. I'm a Northwest guy, through and through, love living here ... and I still support the professional sports teams here, even though we haven't won a championship in some time. I write reviews here at AP - I like to crack jokes and discuss a wide variety of music, film and whatever else is on-hand.

11:15 AM on 07/13/09 | How's 21st Century Breakdown (Part II) coming along?
My biggest issue to understanding the depth of the album is trying to figure out who is talking. Seems you have a handle on that whether it be Gloria, Christian or other.
Waiting with baited breath. (sorry, I'll go brush my teeth) :) | | Reply | Wall-to-Wall |

01:17 AM on 07/06/09 | If you hear any info on this new butch record hit me up. Thanks pal. Oh and I'm expecting another review from you when it actually comes out. Nine months later, Sycamore Meadows is my 2nd favorite butch album, right behind Letters. | | Reply | Wall-to-Wall |

02:07 AM on 06/28/09 | foxtrot = best comic series ever. dude, excellent review on the first act of 21st century breakdown. ive really been digging the cd since it came out but i havent had time to just sit down and think about it, your post saved me loads of time. and as such i was looking through you blog, i cant believe you actually like Nebraska more than Born to Run. man, that album is eight songs and there's not a bad note on there. springsteen is my favorite of all time. | | Reply | Wall-to-Wall |

08:46 PM on 03/05/09 | railroadlightsshine.tumbl r.com Hey Chris...could you do me a big ol' favor and lock my Gaslight thread? http://absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=266108
It's at 5k (or near it) and I don't wanna see it disappear into the abyss for good, ha. I'm attached to it. 
I'd appreciate it. But if it absolutely must get archived, I'll understand. I'd just like to have it around for reference/nostalgia. I dunno, I'm weird. | | Reply | Wall-to-Wall |
