Clayton Purdom lives in Chicago, where the city actually farts on you sometimes. He rides the train around and writes about music, but doesn't do so while actually riding the train, because the whole "notebook" thing feels kind of pretentious to him. He is also indulged by Cokemachineglow, Allmusic and some other places.
