Greetings one and all! A few years back, I ran a very interesting polling game that got a lot of folks involved in something cool. The TMF voted on its favorite classic rock bands until the populace settled on Led Zeppelin as the #1 rock band of all time. It's been a few years and we could use...

Former NFL defensive end and longtime television and movie actor Charles Aaron "Bubba" Smith was found dead in his Los Angeles home on Wednesday. Coroner's reports have not yet been released, but according to the Los Angeles Times, it is believed that Smith died of natural causes. Smith...

I was putting together a playlist of melodic/progressive metal and came across a tune by the band Impelliteri. And it got me thinking... Did Graham Bonnet get screwed out of the "best metal singer ever" title by being overshadowed by guitar gods? This was THE guy you called if you were a guitar...

Well, it's that time again. With the lockout taking over most of the offseason, teams are scrambling to get through free agency, trades and manage to muster something of a training camp. Before I start with my Fearless Predictions, I'd like to mention the Vikings. Again. And for the same...

Greetings pholks. In honor of the now-retired Space Shuttle program, I have found a very rare video that celebrates the initial launch the Shuttle. On their Signals album from 1982, Rush recorded a song called "Countdown" to commemorate the experience of being at the first launch. They shot a...

Greetings pholks! I come to you this evening with a Top 5 list actually agreed upon with the utmost seriousness. See...I have this group of friends that I get together with every week to hang out, discuss music, politics, etc. as we share some wine, a little pot and just have discussions for...

As a straight person completely dedicated to gay-rights issues, I could not be happier that the great state of New York has passed into law a bill making gay marriage legal. New York becomes the sixth and largest state to legalize gay marriage (along with the District of Columbia). And what's...

I know this has been posted in P&R, but I think this is far more than just a political issue. As a straight person completely dedicated to gay-rights issues, I could not be happier that the great state of New York has passed into law a bill making gay marriage legal. New York becomes the sixth...

Ok, so I have weird tastes in music. I was thinking of this the other day and many of my favorite albums by the bands I like tend to not be their biggest hit albums in terms of sales or singles. So, fess up folks! Do you have any albums by bands you like that either didn't do "well" or were...
