Hello all you hot, music-lovin hepcats. I am Angela, I'm 23 years young, and I have a M.A. in journalism (focus on magazine writing) from NYU. My favorites are classic rock, Motown, and the blues, but I'm open to listen to anything. I also once interned at Rolling Stone. It was pretty awesome. If you like what I have to say, check out my website: www.angelaflynn.com. Rock on.

These Dick's Sporting Goods holiday commercials make no sense.

My role in society, or any artist's or poet's role, is to try and express what we all feel. Not to tell people how to feel. Not as a preacher, not as a leader, but as a reflection of us all. - John Lennon

A Day In The Life - 29th November 2001: George Harrison dies.

"He left this world as he lived in it, conscious of God, fearless of death, and at peace, surrounded by family and friends. He often said, ‘Everything else can wait but the search for God cannot wait, and love one another’."
