Hello Interweb!

Hello everyone, as previously mentioned by esteemed colleague, I go my the name Mr. Quin or Harley Quin. I chose the name from a series of Agatha Christie stories featuring a man of that name. I am classmates with Mary Ann.
I am a musician (piano, clarinet, guitar) and currently enroll in music theory classes at a local college. I plan on being a musicologist, or a concert performer.
As far as music tastes go, I prefer music that is not mainstream. That does not mean I hate all mainstream music, I just don't enjoy most of it. My favorite artists are:

  • Chris Botti (Jazz trumpet player, played one of my favorite versions of My Funny Valentine)
  • Gomez (British Rock group, saw them live, great show, cute singers, this is one of my favorite songs by them)
  • Wolf Parade (personally, they had the best cd of 2005, Apologies to the Queen Mary, this a song from that c.d. )
  • Laura Veirs and The Saltbreakers (a geologist rocker, what do yah know? Solid vocals and great lyrics. The only thing is that I wish they wouldn't have so many mellow songs. This is from their c.d. "Saltbreakers")
  • Limbeck ( country-style-rock, they're fun to listen to if you're in "Lets Just Dance" mood. This is a great song by them )
I like to think I have a wide range of musical taste. I enjoy everything from punk and metal to jazz and opera. So if you want to fallow this blog, expect to get an entire spectrum of the music world.
On a side note, if you do email us, please put who you are adressing in the subject. Thanks again!

An Introduction Post

I'm Mary Ann, which is not my given name but a pseudonym that I go by as of like, right now.
Between the two of us running this blog, I am the girl. "Mr. Quin" just happens to be more of a woman.
As for music, I like a lot of different things. Indie Rock is my favorite though. I have a girl crush and it goes by the name of Regina Spektor. She is adorable and talented and I would totally cuddle with that, as opposed to hitting it which sounds too harsh, idk. I am currently a student but not quite of the college variety and when I do get to that point (in 3 years) I'll probably be majoring in Journalism with a minor in Psychology. I have two cats and no matter how annoying they get, I'll always love them. If you want to know more about what kind of music I'm into you can visit my last fm page at last.fm/user/recycledrevenge. Thanks for reading or whatever ♥
