4-2-10 Awake Tonight tour (TobyMac, Skillet, House of Heroes)

Version 2.0, 1998 Album by Garbage
I like Version 2.0 a lot more than Version 1.0, the debut album released by Garbage, and called Garbage, even though, it should have been called Version 1.0, for the name of the second album to make a little more sense. But the title is kind of memorable nonetheless. …
