Things I learned from VH-1's Metal Mania Marathon

January 2, 2005 :: :: Original Blog

- During the guitar solo, it is important for the lead singer to upstage the guitar player. But it is important to do it right. DO: Bug out your eyes, lean over the guitar player's shoulder and make squiggly finger motions. DON'T: Turn around facing the drums and wiggle your girlish butt.

- Also during the guitar solo it is important for all nonplayer characters to remember that a lead guitarist slowly walking down a darkened hallway is the scariest thing in the world.

- Y'know, in retrospect, that dude from Anthrax can't rap for shit.

- I want to write a short story where the protagonist is the son of that babe who lifted her shirt in Mötley Crüe's "Home Sweet Home" video.

- After World War III, supplies will be short, forcing women to wear ripped fishnet stockings. But thankfully there will still be plenty of rouge and Aqua Net.

- Dio, man. Ronnie James Dio.
