Was a difficult choice between him and Stephen.

Got to see BB King in the mid 80s. Just absolutely incredible. Always searching for that perfect note.
You know, I almost put in BB King on my own, but I didn't realize he would get so many votes.

Accidentally voted for the current Brit f***, thinking it was Charlemagne.
E: Oh, I think you did change it. To Alexander the Great. :laugh:

Feels like a loss. Kings gonna be angry after the loss to Buffalo and Doughtt calling them out afterwards.


As long as we get more Mack points, that's all I'm looking for. Keep that streak alive heading into the All-Star break.
The kings are playing terrible hockey, and Mack is chasing trophies. We win by 14

I don't believe that's accurate.
I was kidding, it's all a matter of taste obviously. To me, most of the time: melodic riffing > chugging.

BTW, it's a cover of a Rainbow song. The original is good also, with Dio and Ritchie Blackmore showcasing their talents. (Liege Lord's vocalist sounds so much like Bruce Dickinson it's uncanny.)
