Oooo, big talk from someone I've never heard of, much less recognize as
having anything to do with rock.  If he can beat _Tommy_, I'll be the first
to tip my hat to him (hell, if he can beat _Tommy_, I'll do more than that
:-), but I'm far from holding my breath.  Come on, Mr. Mitchell...knock me
out.
