My favorite genre of course is 80's music. It can be just a few words from a song or video, and I will wrack my brains to remember or figure it out. I have a photographic memory and luckily for me I also love 80's music.

Experience

I used to be a D.J at the now defunct 93.7 WLHT in Grand Rapids, MI Iam a collector of music albums from the 80's British invasion. And I have a real need to constantly broaden and test my music knowledge
