Jay Porks here.. You may bump into me at a show or two-I am the one wearing the shirt that says Your Favorite Band Sucks while juggling a camera and taking notes... I love music, so when I go to Rock concerts I feel the need to pass off my experiences of the show to you, the reader, by writing a review here @ ConcertConfessions.com and of course over @ JayPorks.Com.. I use the term review loosely while grimacing, because thats not what this is.. It is not all about the technicalities of the situation more than it is about what the situation brings to the technicalities... The Jay Porks Experience, take a stroll my shoes for a little while...
