What else are you listening to now other than the Compilation?
My car CD player has three discs in heavy rotation. The first is Matt Wertz's "Twenty Three Places." I think Matt is a great rising star with tons of potential. Second CD is one I obviously learned about through Wondermore and that is Reed Foehl's " Spark. It is simply a great CD to make the drive fly by. Finally, I am a big fan of Maroon 5 and their CD "Songs about Jane."
What will you always be listening to?
"Simon and Garfunkel's Greatest Hits," Guster's, "Parachutes," U2's "Joshua Tree," and John Mayer's "Room for Squares."
What do you do when you're not working at Wondermore?
I am constantly fiddling around on the guitar. Not that my talent will take me anywhere, but I love to write new riffs and doing so always relaxes me. I also like to play golf, not that my game resembles anything like the sport and watch my beloved Red Sox so they can get my hopes up every season till they crush them right around August...(update...the Sox won the Series. Life is officially great). Finally, at present each spare moment I have seems to be spent on planning for my upcoming nuptials.
