I want more female rockstars who wouldn't have been invited to Lilith Fair

Maybe the last two would have been invited. I was just thinking about how much different my taste in music is now than when I was in school. I listen to very little punk and metal now. I guess I prefer my angry music more cynical, sarcastic and hidden behind pop hooks and less confrontational now. Reading lots of books and going to art school probably made me appreciate more literate music which tends to be more common in singer-songwriter stuff. Jello Biafra is a smart dude but he doesn't write with subtlety.

A drive angry song of mine

No coincidence that Tom Morello's on it and RATM is the only metal band from my youth that's also on my phone now.

kleinbl00 keeps engaging me in a tongue in cheek back and forth I started with the kind of stupid stream of consciousness comment that I'm prone to. Anyway I keep coming back to this thread. I knew that Bruce song was a cover. Holy shit the original 12 string blues version is badass. I just checked it out like three minutes ago
