    Been watching dozens of your videos over the last few days, and loving every minute of it. Most importantly I love that you take the time to go into the deeper meaning of songs, especially from genres that you didn't grow up listening to. We all naturally gravitate to the music we listened to in our formative years - teens and early twenties, and the mark of a true scholar of music is branching out into new things and really genuinely trying to appreciate why people love that which is foreign to you. Keep it up my brother, you're a positive force in a negative world!

      I'd also suggest more straightforward hard songs like "Cowboys from hell" by Pantera, and "Stinkfist" by Tool.
      If you want to learn and broaden your horizons into these genres, these are some good bands to explore.
      Finally, you liked the drums on War Pigs so much, you have to check out Black Sabbaths live version in Paris...1970 maybe it was? Its on here, you get to watch the drummer Bill Ward actually hammering away like an absolute madman.

    Small things matter. Those tiny nuggets with which we find common ground can be more impactful than the huge BS that divides us. The tiny nuggets we share can give us empathy into another person's perspective. If we dig a bit deeper, we find we're really not so different. Once we get to that point, we start to love and respect our fellow man. Peace!!!

    I have been to many Kings games at the Staples Center and a few Ducks games at the Honda Center. I wonder if we ever crossed paths. I am over in Beverly Grove.
