Her earlier alternative folk stuff (Tom's Diner era), or her later industrial stuff?
Keep right except to pass.  Yes.  You.

"Set up road signs; put up guideposts. Take note of the highway, the road that you take." Jeremiah 31:21

Sanctimoniously

As far as composers go, I'd have to say John Williams (obligatory), Jerry Goldsmith, and Martin O'Donnell.

My other favorite groups include Pink Floyd, Queen, Boston, Journey, Yes, King Crimson, The Band, Pet Shop Boys, Pearl Jam, Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Trocadero, and Them Crooked Vultures. I tend to prefer music that actually involves real people playing real instruments and actually singing vocals. As noted previously, I'm a sucker for a good film/video game score, too.

Does US 2112 run from the Temples of Syrinx to Xanadu?

Yes, with exits for Lakeside Park, Avalon, and all of Middletown's Subdivisions.  No alloy air cars allowed.
...and then the psychiatrist chuckled.

It's the scenic byway to Bangkok, by way of Bogota, Lebanon and Afghanistan.

So it's a spur of US 412, not US 12 :P

Saw Chicago (the band) last night.  Not especially a first-tier favorite of mine, but I won't turn the dial if they are on and the tix were free.  Didn't realize how many hits those guys had.  I do appreciate a good horn section.

I love the sounds of TSO.  Now its Christmas time, their music is played all over the place.  Love Wizards in Winter and the videos that accompany it.  It might be wise next year to catch em in concert for the spectacular laser light show they supposedly have.  According to what I have read, the band's main influence is Pink Floyd, ELP, and Yes, which may explain the light show aspect of their concerts.

TSO are playing Dallas on Dec. 23. Can't get much better timing than that.

Tiësto is playing Dallas on  12/29, Bassnectar on 12/30, and BT on 12/31.  If I had the money I'd go to all three.

I remember when TSO did Rochester on Dec. 23.  Now our tour dates are a month before Thaksgiving!

Porcupine Tree. Steven Wilson literally rocks.

How did I miss this thread?

Definitely in no order:

Chicago, Kiss, Aerosmith, BTO, Ted Nugent, Foreigner, Van Halen, Cheap Trick, Scorpions, Judas Priest, AC/DC, Metallica, Accept, Bad Company, Black Sabbath, Brian May, Deep Purple, Fastway, Genesis, Grim Reaper, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Motorhead, Ozzy Osbourne, Queen, Rainbow, Rush, ZZ Top.

I finally gave in and looked at what's on my player. Needless to say, I have a lot, lot more, but these are the ones to which I'll default.

You'll notice the list is top-heavy with 70s and 80s bands.


Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

ZZ King almost happened, but apparently Billy F. Gibbons thought better and came up with the name that has stuck since. Judas Priest got their name from a Bob Dylan song,

Speaking of which, Billy F. Gibbons has gone back to the early ZZ Top sound in his solo work. It's better for him to do that because he can still show where his roots in music are,
