I don't find Wagner so dreary. My music theory final had to based on Prelude und Liebestod from Tristan und Isolde. I find the music to be the pinnacle of the romantic period (well maybe only after Beethoven) and this is coming from a yid. I'd love to see Beyreuth someday even. Cliff was the man but Jason did some nice work like on Garage days revisited and if that bass forward remix of "and justice for Jason" is to be believed, he was playing some solid lines buried in there. As for Don, he wrote some good stuff and I'm sure he'll be more than capable of continuing his pop song writing craft. Dirty Laundry is a favorite tune of my info warrior friend who references it on face book when talking about corrupt politicians.
