3. Start Taking Coke
4. Forget about music theory and thrash away!

2. Find the tightest leather (or leather-like) pants you can find. Buy them. Matching belts/jackets are a huge plus. Make sure you don't wear a shirt, no matter how gaunt/flabby/tattooed you are.
3. Get really, really, really drunk. Turn every dial on aforementioned equipment all the way up, then break it off.
4. Plug in & Rock balls.

2. Furiously insist that your rider must include a bowl of red M&M's (and ONLY the red ones)
3. Do some lunges to warm up whilst wearing fluorescent yellow spandex pants and no underwear
4. Turn your amps on before plugging in to let the audience know you're serious about rockin'. |
