CURRENT MISSION

Finding the right couch in life...

ABOUT ME

God, I hate writing cover letters. They recommend substituting "I" for "you," but, honestly... how the hell do you write about yourself with limited use of "I"? Keane is in a band called Festizio, writes for Performer Magazine and works at The Conversation Group, a web media consultancy. He won the 2003 Online Rock Festival award for "Original Song," meaning a lot of other internet music geeks think he's really "different." Keane also writes business reviews for Yelp: keane.yelp.com, which are totally unrelated, but please read them anyway. Finally, Keane mistakenly gets fan mail for the band by the same name, but mostly from South American kids...
