About

Kyle Gustafson moved to D.C. in the summer of 2004 after seven years in New York City. He spent his time in the shadow of the Evil Empire slaving away in the music industry, working on projects with artists like R.E.M., Beck, William Orbit and Beth Orton as well as movies like Fight Club and School of Rock. Tired of being paid in CD's and concert tickets, he decided he needed a change and eventually ended up in D.C. He now works in e-media and has no regrets about giving up his rock and roll lifestyle. He served as co-sports editor of Gothamist in early 2004 before becoming a founding member of DCist later in the year. Born in Massachusettes (Go Sox!), he grew up in North Carolina and calls the Cackalack his home, NASCAR be damned. He graduated from East Carolina many moons ago, where he was a club DJ as well as music director of the campus radio station. He spends most of his spare time updating his own blog and uploading concert photos and pictures of his cat to his Flickr account.
