Jim Kirn is a 24-year old journalism student at Temple.
Originally from Northeast Philadelphia, he attended Roman Catholic High School
in the mid 2000s. Kirn first picked up a guitar at age 12 and has been playing
ever since. Touring with Infernal Stronghold, he experienced what it was like
being on the road and visiting different places in the country. “I dropped out
of school to go on tour. I’ve done about two or three U.S. tours now,” Kirn
said. Jim is an avid fan of punk, metal and 70’s hard rock. He also enjoys
older hardcore bands, such a Poison Idea.
Kirn has had some pretty wild experiences while touring the
country. Recalling a show in Humboldt County, California, Kirn explained how
more relaxed the attitude toward marijuana is on the other side of the country.
“After the show, people were just walking around openly smoking it. It was
pretty crazy,” he said.
When it comes to drinking, Jim prefers to drink good,
well-crafted beer, but doesn’t mind having a bottle of malt liquor, or Old Crow
bourbon sometimes.
