The other day I paid $5 to join the jam at @brooklyndrumcollective and get up on stage for the first time in about 25 years and play the drums with a bunch of folks I've never met before! What an amazing experience! Thanks to @pdpbeats for capturing it and to @roni_sounds for inviting me along!
Come see Joy Giannakidis vs Loissa Harrison-Parks on Friday, May 2nd in the QPA’s first edition of SHARK BITE — with special guests Sunny Laprade and Sheria Mattis!

Happy Birthday Eliana mou! May all your dreams and wishes come true! Thanks for being on this crazy ride of life with me. You deserve all the things that make you happy! 🥳🎂😘🎉🍾🎁
Happy Trans Day of Visibility to this little munchkin! We always knew we were different, and we never have to wear a stupid skirt, ruffled collar or clothes that make us feel awful ever again. Almost 8 months of low dose T hasn't changed us much, but we finally feel like everything is right in this meat suit! P.S.: You finally have the dopest haircut you always wanted! Cheers to living our best life! #TDOV #transvisibility
Happy Birthday Yiayia! You were the biggest καραγκιόζη but it was always impossible to get a good photo of you smiling. We always had to καλαμπόκι it out of you. I'm glad I was able to get the best one out of you on your last birthday with us. Σ'αγακπω 💐
