Rush sucks. Neil Peart is awesome though.
Good Charlotte also sucks.
As do AFI. If I ever find a worse, more overrated band, I will tell you all about them.

i am also in a group with the lovely brielle welzer. we call ourselves get used to disappointment, and our website can be find here. hopefully we will be playing a few dates sometime soon, but right now all our songs are still being worked out for our limited instrumentation.
