I’d say I’m a moderately interesting person. I grew up very much interested in sports and athletics, playing soccer and basketball throughout middle and high school. In high school I began getting really into guitar and music as a whole. I began doing independent study of music theory. The artsy side of me was beginning to emerge from beneath my varsity jacket and before I knew it I was wearing Beatles shirts to school. I expanded my group of friends to include a bass player, drummer, and anybody else with a similar interest in music that I had. For some reason, I also learned to juggle at the time, play Frisbee golf, and I began getting borderline obsessed with jam band music. The Grateful Dead, Phish, The String Cheese Incident, bands like these were drawing my attention on their ability to improvise and play together on stage in front of thousands of people and make it look like it was nothing. It also happened to be that this past summer was the greatest time for my interests to hit their peek as Phish, The Dead, and String Cheese were all reunited and ready to jam all summer. I saw Phish play three times, and managed to get out to both a String Cheese and a Dead show throughout this past summer and have not been able to stop attending any possible good show since.
