" ..the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!" Jack Kerouc...(how and why I fell in love with Beat Literature)
Some of my favorites include Styx, Bon Jovi, Social D, Wanda Jackson, Reverend Horton Heat, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson and the list goes on and on
