    I still appreciate the music of Tesla and Cinderalla from the 80s. Cinderella was really just a glammed out blues-rock band and Tesla just kicked ass. I still can't help myself when I hear certain 80s hair metal, but as far bands the two mentioned are the only ones I consider to have any long-lasting redeeming qualities
    All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow

    They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

    Agree 100%. And I'll add Queensryche to my list.

    your signature is amazing. one of the best songs ever.


    anyway, I love Fall Out Boy and Justin Timberlake. No guilt.

    I liked that album too. Too bad my wife commandeered that album from me and now neither of us can find it. It's probably packed away in a box somewhere that we haven't found since we moved last fall....

    Winner.
    It is time to admit that we used to rock like hurricanes. It is time to run for the hills and go round and round. It is time for us to shout at the devil. We've got the right to choose it, there ain't no way we'll lose it, and we're not gonna take it anymore.
