About Me

Brandon here, also known as GarageBandKings or GBK by all the old school afro-punkers. College graduate and grad school "to be continued" once a brotha is financially stable again. Spent the last 7 years in Carbondale (IL) and now I'm back in Chicago (as of May 30th 2007) and ready to throw myself back into the Chicago scene. Did all my real adult growing up in Carbondale so Chicago is a new experience for me since I really know it from my child and teen days. I love punk, indie, and synthpop and I love to go thrifting. I'm also an aspiring hippy and have been trying to be more green and a better world citizen. I'm a black queer chubby punk synthpop boy so there are lots of things that I like to get into.

You can be my friend if...

you are open minded
