| What is your favorite cover? @berner99 - I loved how they used 'All Along the Watchtower' in BSG!!!!! For favorite cover, I'll go with Jello Biafra's version of "They're Coming To Take Me Away".... | |
| Is Old Music Killing New Music? @femoore12 - good to see you're a Steven Wilson fan (Porcupine Tree tix for US shows go on sale this week), but it's surprising that you're a prog rock fan and didn't hear of him until 4 years ago; both with Porcupine Tree and his own bands, he's ... | |
