Thats about 20 I guess... I'm not counting any blues (read. Gallagher, Clapton, Cale, etc) or anything lighter, like the Manics or King Crimson, because if I did that, I'd never get close to 20.

Motley Crue

2. Machine Head - Through The Ashes Of Empires
3. Iced Earth - The Glorious Burden
4. Fozzy - Happenstance
5. Alice In Chains - Dirt
6. Slipknot - Live 9.0 (Hated This Band Until I Seen Them Live)
7. Shadows Fall - The Art of Balance (one song - Casting Shade)
8. Killswitch Engage - Alive Or Just Breathing
9. Guns N' Roses - Appetite for Destruction
10. Slash's Snakepit - Its Five O Clock Somewhere

16. Audioslave - Cochise
17. pretty much anything the Black Label Society have ever released
18. Eagles - Hell Freezes Over
19. Metallica - S&M
20. Machine Head - Burn My Eyes

*This is the Mexico City set from the Binge and Purge boxset, in my opinion, the finest live set Metallica ever performed and the last credible record they ever produced.
