Linkin Park....yay.... *rolls eyes*
Who's leg do I have to hump to get some more Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimi Hendrix, or some of Clapton's ridiculous early stuff?
Mastodon, on the other hand, is a good selection.
I'm not familiar with The Used, so I'll have to listen to a couple of songs from them.

I was playing Rock Band the other night and was wishing they had some Jimi Hendrix. I was happy belting out "Roxanne" by the Police and attempting "Sabotage" by the Beastie Boys.

Pythons just be happy Stevie and Jimi were in the one of the games at one point. Almost all bands I like never make it at all. :
