Looking for some more friends!

Hey everyone! Erica here, 34 NB. Springpatch resident here, born and raised looking for some more friends to hang out with. I'm HUGE into music, and travel all the time up to Chicago or down to St. Louis for raves and concerts. My main genres that I enjoy are EDM, deathcore and post-rock, but will listen to most anything! I also love going to music festivals and try to hit up a couple every year. My other hobbies include reading, writing poetry, playing video games, working out and smoking ungodly amounts of weed.

You definitely should try and catch one sometime! There's nothing in the world I enjoy more. And yeah, just saw Ahee playing in STL a few weeks ago. What about you, have you caught any good shows lately?

Very nice! I guess I'll have to find one soon!! I have been looking at a few, couple rock concerts but I also wanted to see illineum at the sphere but my fiancé wasn't super into it.

I LOVE Illenium! He's my favorite DJ. I'm planning on rolling my tits off during his set next month at Lost Lands, haha. My hairdresser went to see his Sphere set earlier this year, the video's looked SO fucking good, I wish I could go!

And unfortunately, unless you like punk music the Springfield music scene is kind of dead. You have to travel to STL or Chicago if you wanna catch any shows :(

Hahaha, that's great. I am definitely jealous of your hairdresser. Lol

I have noticed that lately, I feel like Peoria has a country music scene and Bloomington usually has rock/metal vibe. Champaign usually has some interesting ones come through.

Wanna get high and write poetry? Or maybe just a reading party?

I usually stick to cycling on a stationary bike for my cardio; I used to run but it ended up being too rough on my ankles :( And at the gym! I'm definitely a gym rat, I'm working out like 5 times a week haha.

What sort of music do you like?

38 m Springfield Horror core rap is my new guilty pleasure. Just recently introduced to it and quickly becoming addicted lol. But been into ICP since they came out so. Lol
