The Rebel Black Dot Song o' the Day

Five Iron Frenzy, "Against a Sea of Troubles" from Engine of a Million Plots (Mike Papa Whiskey)

Commentary: In high school, I committed the "To be or not to be" soliloquey to memory & quoted it frequently, without much reflection on its meaning. I still remember much of it, though my recitation is rusty. I'd like to think I understand the Bard of Avon's words more thoroughly today than I did then. Contrary to the opinions of snobs like Alice von Hildebrand, rock & roll can indeed be erudite.
