Like you, Chris is krazy about music. He is always playing, writing, listening or going to shows. He loves discovering new independent acts and going to see big names (he has seen more rock concerts than he can count. Including The Police, Iggy and the Stooges and Van Halen, Stray Cats reuion tours). Great new bands he has seen lately include Wolfmother, Ryan Shaw, and Cage The Elephant.
