Most people know somebody that had crazy tacked-on to their name, making them respected, ridiculed and/or feared!

Blackfoot obviously did and starts our craziness. More therapy follows fast in the form of Wayne Shorter, 999, The Afghan Whigs, Gnarls Barkley, Ann Peebles, Medicine Head, Bloodrock, Climax Blues Band and Streetwalkers! Shine on you.....
