Unfortunately he has another reference point after this weeks terrible incident in Aurora.  :(

Shocking loss of life in such a normal life event - watching a film. Something about the normalcy of the locale makes it even more shocking.

The "Here come the 90s" line was rewritten to "Here come the zeros" in the last decade, but at recent gigs it sounded like it had reverted back to 90s again....  sure it won't be long till it rolls forward to "20s"....  :)

Just thinking about "Here Comes the War" it was telling that the "Riot season is here again" line was not sung at Endorseit last summer....  though it is now being sung again

As for Aurora.... hard to know where to start -  very sad....  not far from Columbine I believe?
