20. Inside info -- They walked away from a bad boss.

Through my work in the Chicago metal scene, I've encountered Iced Earth in the past. I talked with a couple of those guys at one of their shows. They were hired guns. There was once a pretty solid line-up, but not for years.

He's actually a talented guitarist. I got the impression he was pretty much full of himself, though. Ever since 9/11, he's put out some "pro-America/worship the heroes" sort of songs.

At any rate, he's now just another fucking traitor. NO DO-OVERS !
