Keith Abt on HubPages

About Articles Activity Following Followers Fan Mail

A wise man once said, "Writing about music is like dancing about architecture," but I do it anyway.

Greetings! I'm Keith - an aging music enthusiast, film buff, and all around retro pop culture nerd from the Garden State.

Be warned: everything I post is cold filtered and shot through with a heavy dose of New Jersey attitude.

Dubbed "Resident Metal Fan" of HubPages by Nate M., bassist of Stuck Backwards, 2018

Three time winner of "Funniest Hubber" Award (2017, 2018, 2021).
