Dylan Peterson Wednesdays, 12AM
Dylan Peterson is a freelance writer and former Sound Opinions intern currently residing in Logan Square with his wife and dog. You’ve probably seen him at shows around town, he’s the really tall guy with red hair standing near the back so his head won’t rudely obstruct your view of the stage. He prefers riding his bicycle to any other sort of motor vehicle. He’s a White Sox fan living on the northwest side. He wore out two Talkboys when he was a kid, and hasn’t lost interest in audio production since.
