Freddie will have plenty of votes, don't worry about that.

Yeah Freddie Boy and Geddy Lee.

Queen and Rush - the most overrated bands on CRF.

I'd rather hear an atomic bomb going off in my backyard, then hear these two ''singers'' sing again....



Yeah, I'll be dead but, at least I will never hear them ''sing'' ever again!
