[QUOTE="Warpiglet-7, post: 9370303, member: 7025282"] I was listening to SiriusXM’s Liquid Metal today and was thrilled to hear Ian Christie’s program, Bloody Roots celebrate the long history of heavy metal and D&D! The program celebrated the 50th anniversary of the game and feature songs linked to D&D and explored the relationship between the game and the music it inspired! I was happy to hear the host give a reasonable primer on the history of D&D as well as acknowledging the huge footprint it has had on video games, movies entertainment and…music! Following this were songs and bands with clear links to the game. I stepped away to write this but am probably missing some of the tunes so I will wrap up. But it did my jaded heart good to hear about my most enduring loves—-D&D and heavy metal. Around the time we started being corrupted by older kids on the street and introduced to D&D, we were listening to records pilfered from older siblings at the listening station in the library at school. Will never forget the look on the teachers face when she grabbed a pair of headphones to see what we were listening to. The look on her face said everything and made us love it more!!! Long live D&D, heavy metal and beer! (Beer was unrelated. I added that one cause it’s good). [/QUOTE]
