Location? Dayton, OH
Profession? Graphic Whore
Involvement in Bettawreckonize? I meet and greet bands and try to capture something of interest on a tiny cassette recorder, give my opinion on records, update the show listings, and try to add my two cents whereever possible.
Are you in a band? A karaoke duo called The Fish Male.
Do you write for other zines? Not anymore.

Do You Have A Makeout Club Profile? Why or why not? No, because there's no reason to have one and a million reasons not to have one, even if they are pretentious reasons.
First show/concert? Green Day / Pansy Division / Samiam at a big outdoor venue that I'm drawing a blank on.
Favorite show/concert of all time? June of 44, Harriett The Spy, and Sweep The Leg Johnny at Speak In Tongues in 1997 me thinks. Good bands, good people. Or maybe Lollapalooza in 95 or 96 with Sonic Youth, The Jesus Lizard, Melvins, Pavement, Beck, Cypress Hill and a crap load of other bands.
Favorite Drink? Non-alcohol- Lemon Lime Gatorade. With tha booze - car bomb.
If you were stranded on a desert island, without food, with the staff of Bettawreckonize, who would you eat first? Clark, cause he's luscious.
