I think I'm wrong, too.
In fact, I am wrong.
I am so wrong.
As wrong as wrong can be.
I'm so wrong that I skipped right past wrung and am just now a distorted mess of pulverized wrongness.

Wrong.

Real name: Drew
Real age: 44
Real life: currently live in Vancouver with a commonlaw wife of 9 years, and work as a freelance writer (specializing in screenplays, although other credits have ranged from contributing editor/cartoonist for Adbusters to editor of a book of poetry). I also ocasionally work on-set in the camera department (but I try not to because I'm too much of a pansy to stand out in the rain for 14 hours a day).
Real reason I hang around here: wait until you're 44 and see how easy it is to find anybody who's interested in discussing new music.
Real deep dark secret: Radcliffe totally out-bitches me.

I'm Bryan
male
I currently reside in Seattle as of July. I'm working on a Masters in the School of Aquatic Science and Fisheries at the University of Washington. I'm working on methods to "control" any organisms that happens to survive in the ballast water of ships.

I grew up country when country wasn't cool and much to the torture of my girlfriend I can sing along to any Alabama song from the '80's . Fortunately I escaped the darkness by the likes of U2 and Depeche Mode settling into Shoegaze/dream pop/ambient/ sorta stuff as my favorite type of music. Favorites include Slowdive, Spiritualized, Low, and I've gotta give props to my peeps in Auburn Lull.

I don't play in a band or consider myself a musician although I have a bass that I devote 5 minutes to every few months.

I have met quite a few of the CMJ folks from Chicago, Kabob, and cmanhattan.

Now I must return to studying for the dreaded biostatistics exam I have tonight.
