But disc 2 has ODB saying "i'm not the first dog who shitted on your lawn!" Do you want to rethink your choice of disc?

K-Wise

It also has Triumph but Disc one has

For Heavens Sake
Cash Rules/Scary Hours
Visionz
Older Gods
It's Yourz
and A Better Tommorow (My fave Wu track)

The choice is easy for me really.

Asta!!

If I had to pick RIGHT NOW:

Pearl Jam "Ten"

Beethoven's 9th
and a Creed one so I have something to smash and use as something to kill small animals with

K-Wise

Great Choices... made me think about revising my list... so on second thought...

Remove Nirvana and add Tool... Anemia

I like Alenja's idea about the Creed cd being used as a weapon... but I think if we played it really loudly all the animals would just kill them selves so we wouldnt have to hunt them down to kill them.

Miles Davis - Bitches Brew (remastered, both discs)
Opeth - Still Life
King Crimson - Starless and Bible Black
Carcass - Heartwork
My Dying Bride - The Dreadful Hours

I always wondered why it was only 5 cds anyone could bring with them. Am I on a plane hurtling towards the sea and I only have time to grab 5 things, and out of everything else I just happened to choose 5 albums that I would want to listen to until I get rescued?

...my friends hate me sometimes.
