Christina Lee is a freelance writer based in Atlanta, where she’s still trying to find a venue she likes more than D.C.’s 9:30 Club. She once drank Ted Leo’s beer (by accident), shook Mannie Fresh’s hand and watched Gucci Mane read a press release when he was released from prison in 2010. Her writing has appeared in Creative Loafing, Washington City Paper and Paste.
