Melting Point Radio 7/8/09: Songs that inspire us to ROCK! Guitar, keys, drums, and bass, oh my!

These are songs that inspire the best in us. They make us want to join the bands on stage, take up an instrument, and add our own little something to the mayhem. Any instrument is fair game. We've divided things up a bit between instruments, or at least inserted our own commentary for most of the songs, so give a listen... then respond in the comments with your thoughts, and certainly any songs we left out!

Due to the nature of the genre, there is a preponderance of guitar songs. Oh, and both DJ's Yuletide and Jack actually DID begin playing guitar because of THESE SONGS! Jack made us proud, having had the honor to shred Episode 666 (see playlist) in front of a live audience at none other than the WORCESTER PALLADIUM, perhaps the MOST METAL venue ever (insert citation here...)?

Disclosure of DANGER:

This show may inspire reckless amounts of air drumming, with feet thundering mercilessly on dual air-bass-drums; air-shredding leading to fingers air-bleeding; and of course fingers fluttering at supersonic speeds along air-keyboards until complete air-dislocation. You have been WARNED!
