The Crazy Train of Life:
I was born in 1984. Two of my favorite uncles introduced my parents, and both of them were really into the music scene in Oregon (yes, connected to things like the Grateful Dead and the Cherry Poppin’ Daddies, for context). They were also very into wrestling. Often, both of these uncles, who were my favorites when I was a kid, would babysit me.

Raging Against the Machine
This caper has been rotating around our circle since the late 2000s. Now, with almost two decades elapsed, it's probably safe to disgorge in public. On the surface this story could simply be, Rage Against the Machine reformed, we saw them, and it was epic. However, just as most music is a homage to previous generations, this was the moment we stood on the shoulders of preceding Metalheads.
