This week Sticks of Fire will introduce a couple new contributors. We’ll start with our new music reviewer, who goes by the name of Autopsy IV:
Hi everyone! I am Autopsy IV , I am a 33 year old male living in downtown St. Pete with my wife and our dog. I run the website ninebullets.net and outside of that I have no formal training or prior experience as a writer. Nor do I really have any business doing it. My only saving grace is that me and the wife are out and about, going to shows.
Late last year I decided to start taking a greater focus on the local musical scene for ninebullets, then Tommy made a post looking for someone willing to do some writing on the local scene and well, one thing leads to another and here I am. I am not nearly as well versed in the local music scene as I should be considering how many shows I am at…I blame the whiskey. So, in 2007 I vow to drink less and show up at shows earlier. Hopefully we will all find some music we like.
Please join me in welcoming Autopsy IV to the Sticks of Fire family!

Welcome Autopsy IV. It would be great if, from time to time, you could tell us about the type of music that loca bands play BEFORE the shows. YES .. reviewers generally discuss shows AFTER the fact, but then we have to remember the band name, find them playing again later, etc. I know bands HATE to be pigeon-holed, but even a basic description like ska, metal, guitar rock, punk, synth, blues, jaz, etc. before the show would help me decide whether to go see the band … instead of trying to guess the type of music based on the name. Guide me!!!
