On April 2nd, 1999, I played the first ever song on 1029 The Buzz (Semisonic- Closing Time) and 20- plus years later I’m still rockin’!
I was born in Nashville and have lived in and around Middle Tennessee my whole life. I graduated from LaVergne High School longer ago than I want to admit.
I love sports, especially college football. I would tell you my favorite team if they didn’t suck. My NFL team is the Indianapolis Colts (sorry Titans fans).
I also love going to concerts with friends and I can be found around the area at flea markets and yard sales looking for old 80s metal vinyl records. If you have any you wanna sell, hit me up!
Am I really that boring????
