Sorry, that double-posted.

All true, I'll admit, but I think it's cool to have a story behind things. Gorillaz doesn't just have a music video, they've got a story about how their evil dwarf manager was on a floating island. Kavinsky, The Protomen, The Draculas. All with a story to tell.

You want classic rock? Bohemian Rhapsody. One of the greatest rock tales of all time. Styx and Mr. Roboto. Rush and 2112. Jethro Tull and Thick as a Brick.

The power of music is a great force, true, but when you combine it with the power of storytelling? That's magic.

Take your Fenders and Pearls, I begrudge you nothing, but I'm searching for the drum machine of gods.

People of great power have a responsibility to use it, and I'll chase down the best instruments of all time to make the best music of all time. Who's with me?




(Side note, everything mentioned merits a listen, or at least a casual glance on Spotify.)

Band name ideas:
The Mystics
Campus
Old Gods
The Rods
Infernal Powers

So, long story short, we're sitting there, and Crystal is shifting through the crate, and what do we find but an old scroll, written in Elvish. Not real Elvish, either, like, from the Lord of the Rings. I'm taking it up to the Polyglotter to translate to good ol' Inglese.

Both versions are the same tune, I believe. The library sounds good.

Full honesty, Hit Me With Your Best Shot is the only Pat Benatar song I know. The original I Love Rock and Roll by the Arrows is awesome.

Hit Me With Your Best Shot is a goddamn classic.

Well, if we want to start off with a boom, I see no better route than Highway to Hell by ACDC. For something a little more mellow, Where is My Mind by Pixies. Middle of the road is Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger.

@Crystal Rosethorn, that's what I'm talking about! Plant guitar! There we go!
