My name is Michael Katz, and this is the first blog post.  I grew up in Santa Monica.  I am a philosophy major, whit aspirations towards law school.  In my spare time, I enjoy playing music.  I started with bass guitar in 2005, and picked up guitar a few years later.  One of my musical idols is Cliff Burton, the original bassist for Metallica.  I live with four other roommates in the sunset (we call our place Roadhouse), and I love spending time outdoors.
