Jack should've stuck to his roots; he's at his best when he's gettin' down Muddy style.

Truncated, why don't you represent? Don't forget where you came from. I let my Chicago flag fly and I do it in caps. Bitches.
Anyway I agree about the WS comparison: they're a duo, and they don't play bass. Not that I don't love the stripes too.
