Hi! My name is John Kloberdanz, I'm a singer and writer living in Buffalo, New York. I'm creating this blog to keep track of my accomplishments (the few I expect to have) and opinions (I always have those). I have a number of creative and personal goals for the next five years, and I'll use this as a diary of sorts, at least for the time being. It's hard for me to believe that there are people that would be interested in me or my work, but I've been given the occasional positive comment.
Here's a bit about me:
My musical superhero is Neil Young.
My musical heroes are Leonard Cohen, Paul Westerberg, Jack Logan, R.E.M. (with Bill Berry), and Chris Difford.
I'm 46 years old.
I don't want to be young again.
I'm not sure about God, but I can't visualize death so I try not to think about it.
I'm married and have two children. I love my family above all else.
I'm very lucky. I don't deserve what I have.
I collect memories.
My favorite song is "Skyway" by Paul Westerberg.
I've met three of my musical heroes.
I wrote and recorded a song with one of the three. I don't have a copy of it. Neither does he.
I finished another hero's Coca-Cola. I still have the can.
I never really liked Coca-Cola. I usually drink Diet Pepsi.
I eat candy bars and drink Diet Pepsi.
If I record a CD of my music, it will be called "A Box of Letters".
I have a box of letters in my basement, sealed shut with packing tape. Most of what's inside are letters from old girlfriends, but it's been so long since I wrapped it up that I don't remember exactly. I think there are some photographs too.
My most recent song is called "A Box of Letters" but it's not about that box.
My last name is pronounced "Kloh-bur-dance".
