I'm thinking the Brotherhood thing can be a good situation for Arya and Gendry, they can brush up on their training with someone who is apparently a pretty badass warrior in Thoros. Arya seems like she could really blossom in a situation in which there don't seem to be the expectations that she be groomed into…

"Heart's Filthy Lesson" by Bowie is THE definitive alt-rock stripper song. Just picture it, it's fun.

I believe Dirtbike is referencing the lyrics to "Everything Zen", though I remember hearing "Life on Mars?" for the first time at some point after Bush came out (hey, I was 12) and then thinking "Hey, Bush sang that too!" God, I wish I could go back in time and kick my own ass.

John Reis can do no wrong. Everything this guy's done from Jehu to Sultans, and especially RFTC and Hot Snakes have just been two tons of fucking awesome. If Rocket starts playing stateside, I'm getting that damn tattoo. I still don't get how that band wasn't bigger.

That's really fucking impressive work. I doff my cap to you sir.

At the time, Ghosts didn't leave much of an impression on me. It was only after seeing The Social Network that I really went back and re-evaluated what he was doing there.

Yes, Games Without Frontiers is on his 3rd album. The one with the melted face album cover. That album doesn't get mentioned enough for how great it is. It's hands down his masterpiece. Very dark.

Ah, Carouselambra. For the longest time, this was my most hated Zeppelin song. The synths in this song drove me nuts and Plant's vocals made me want to bang my head against a wall.

Agreed on WYWH being the Floyd's best, but damn if Animals isn't the better album to trip out on. This was a good Vicodin album for me.

I'd count early Peter Gabriel as prog, just as I'd consider his 3rd album to be one of the early New Wave milestones. One of the all time greats.
