    It's seriously heartbreaking to see him just beaming talking about his plans to branch out into indie rock and metal after punk, with the intention of conquering all those genres. Considering his work ethic and talent, along with that ambition I have every confidence him and the reatards would have had every corner of the music industry on LOCK, and they would have had a blast doing it. Tragic.
