I know I do. Best driving music, bar none.

I'll probably end up with it - but the most important CD release of the last couple of years also happens on 11/11 - Dream Theater - Train of Thought. And since I know most, if not all, of you don't know who they are - think Rush meets Metallica (I think they are better than either -but that's my opinion).

Dream Theatre is a very under-rated, inexplainably unknown band. I think its because their name sounds so lame, like Air Supply or something. People judge a book by its cover. Another good rock band that had that problem was April Wine.

But as far as driving, come on, "American Badass"? The KID rules.

Dream Theater is very cool and underrated. Didn't they open for Savatage a few years ago? I like Kid Rock when he sticks to rock or his southern flavored ballads.

Anyone ever heard of Nashville's the Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies? Great top-down cruisin' tunes that really rock. Check'em out at: http://www.wheelies.com/
