Saved by Rock N Roll

The story of how I discovered music and what it meant for my life. 


Mix tapes and Grateful Dead tapes

When I was twelve years old during the summer between 6th and 7th grade, I started sneaking out at night. I lived in a small town on the CT shoreline that was even smaller then, and my family lived in an old Colonial house with a big huge barn, both built in the mid 19th century. Two other girls my age lived in the neighborhood and a lot more boys. There was a room in our barn that eventually became my father’s office, but when I was in middle school it was a hang out space. My two neighbor girlfriends and I would sleep out there almost every night during the summer.  It was the turn of the 1990's, before technology invaded our lives.
