"I'm getting fired up"

I always loved Jason's backing vocals, hope he didn't loose power over the years.

I'm fucking down for this! Jason Newsted is a criminally underrated bass player, so hopefully this'll be fun to listen to.

Music was my life, music brought me to life and music is how I will be remembered long after I leave this life. When I die there will be a final waltz in my head that only I can hear.
