Hi! I Hope You Enjoy Your Stay!!!

Who is Adam Kahan?


Adam Kahan is a graduate from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign. There he studied Broadcast Journalism, but spent a lot of time doing other stuff. Like what? Good question....



Well, Adam sang with the Varsity Men's Glee Club (VMGC) at the University Of Illinois. 70 men in tuxedos singing, and in key even!

Adam also hummed a few ditties with eleven other men who form the a capella group known as none other than The Xtension Chords. The group tries their best to be funny while also singing music from all realms of...well...music. Visit the Xchord website to find out more information, or just to stalk them if you'd like.



Apart from all that singin', he spent some time as a disk jockey at WPGU radio (107.1 FM). He worked dilligently in an attempt to earn enough money to buy his dream guitar (more on that later). He still needs help (in more ways than one) You can send him cash if you'd like, we're sure he's tax deductable.

Other than that, he deicated all his time to studying (Hi Mom and Dad!)
He is a Leo.

That's all and good, but what about now?


Currently Adam lives in Lincoln Park, does freelance production work for the Oprah Winfrey Show, teaches music and Hebrew for a couple temples, leads the music for some Friday Night services, and then gets people drunk as a bartender. He thinks that the bartending and temple work keeps his morality scale in perfect balance.





Other stuff (boy this guy likes to type a lot). Adam loves to play guitar. In fact, whenever he plays, friends and family throw lots of coins at him. Not that they like his playing, they just hope if they injure him....he'll stop.
He's been eyeing a Taylor six string acoustic for many years. When he was just about to order it, he found a better guitar...Oh well! Now he is the proud owner of a Goodall Guitar . It's made out of Rosewood, Koa, and spruce, weighed 7 pounds, 3 ounces, and is looking very healthy...it's sure is purty!
He still would like the Taylor, though. If you know of anyone selling a used Taylor, let him know. If anyone wants to buy one for him, go right on ahead. He'll send you a thank you card, and a big 'ole kiss (gender dependant).

Adam used to do magic professionally, now as a hobby. At one point he tried getting a job with David Copperfield but that didn't come close to working out. Some think Dave is larger than life. Adam thinks he's larger than...at least this paragragh! You can click on Dave's mighty-big picture to visit his site. Once David saw Adam, he was intimidated that he may lose his then-fiancee, Claudia.,

TIME TO STOP DREAMING



MUSIC

As for music, Adam's been recording some music recently for a Jewish Music album. You can listen to some of the tracks in progress here . He likes to listen to other people's music more, and enjoys everything from Enya to Counting Crows, the Les Mis soundtrack to Janis Joplin. Groups of note would be:
