Maybe Elon's just a desperate Fantastic Four fanboy.

I don’t think there was a single party in Portland, OR in the 1990’s where his music wasn’t played.

^ LOL Don't know much about the guy, but this description of Mike Hughes looks difficult to argue with.

Some of you may already know that Freddie Mercury is dead, but did you know:-

Quote:
A suburban London street has been renamed in honor of late musician Freddie Mercury.
The street, now called Freddie Mercury Close, is located in Feltham, west London, which is where Mercury's family settled after moving from Zanzibar.
However, Mercury, born Farrokh Bulsara, did not grow up on that street. The Bulsara family lived nearby at 22 Gladstone Avenue, which is marked with one of the round blue plaques that the UK uses to commemorate places that have historical connections.
The neighborhood, which is close to Heathrow Airport, is also home to a community of Zoroastrians -- the faith that Mercury's family practiced.
Before forming the rock band Queen in 1970, Farrokh Bulsara worked as a baggage handler at the airport.

I saw Mazzy Star perform live a couple of times in the late 80's and early 90's. Great band.

The first time I saw them, they were the opening act for the Cocteau Twins.
Easily one of the best double-bills I've ever seen.

R.I.P.

I saw them live around 94 and it was great.

Do you like The Doors? You know that his playing is very heavily influenced by Robby Krieger, right?
