Let’s All Try to D!e a Rockstar

by Doug MacRostie

There is a lot that sucks on a grand scale in the world right now; down economy, hunger, foreclosure, just to name a few.

Makes you want to listen to some aggressive tunes.

And music has long been an outlet for such mass emotional strife. And Vision the Kid’s got it by the balls.
