I'm sorry...but I will own you on Rage's track and Rush as well. I know these songs like I know your mom...biblically. You can keep Police and Kansas. Bitch.

In the mean time, I'm going to go practice my Avenged Sevenfold, Nirvana, and Wolfmother (WTF? Wolfmother? What did I do right to be granted such a gift?)
