    damn you, I knew I would leave some big ones out.

    Thin Lizzy is probably just outside my top 10 or maybe even in my top 10. Jesus H. Christ!

    One of my students has formed a band called Angels of Death. That's pretty cool.

    Back in the 90's, some of my students formed a band called Black Vomit, inspired by a Louisiana history lesson about Yellow Fever and it's symptoms--one of which was black vomit. They were 8th graders and thought that was cool.
