Just did my yearly follow clean-up. Not that I didn't enjoy following people. It's just that I need a regular timeline cleansing, plus this makes sure I can see the people who followed me back in my feed.

It's a good time for me to re-introduce myself, too! I'm Kevin, recently turned 52 year old cis white straight male with he/him pronouns. By day, I am an IT professional working for a managed services provider, basically a company that fills in for IT departments for small businesses.

When I'm not at work, I am passionate about the marching arts, which includes marching band in the fall; indoor winter guard, percussion, and winds in the winter; and drum and bugle corps in the spring. I am a 3rd generation drum corps performer in my family, and I am a lifelong fan.

I am also a fan of baseball, mainly following the @cleguardians.com, but I enjoy going to games in general. I'm hoping to start a tour of all 30 major league teams AND their minor league affiliates. Two teams a year for the next 15 years. Of course I choose to start this with a lockout year.

Unfortunately, Cleveland is not currently home to any professional women's sports that I am aware of, though we are getting a @wnba.com basketball team back in the near future, but I try to catch @thepwhl.com, @nwslsoccer.com, and @wnba.com events whenever I am able.

Outside of sports, I am a musician, playing with fun groups such as the @bluecoats.bsky.social Legacy Arc and the NACHO Street Band, and for events like TubaChristmas each year.

I also try to read whenever possible, and I am currently reading @sarahreesbrennan.bsky.social's Long Live Evil and @alixeharrow.bsky.social's The Everlasting.

Cleveland Force all the way!

I grew up going to Force games. BEFORE George Lucas sued them for having Darth Vader as their mascot.
