Comments on: Six Degrees, Part V: Grand Theft Awesome http://www.plasticaxe.com/2010/01/01/six-degrees-part-v-grand-theft-awesome/ For those about to virtually rock Thu, 13 Jan 2011 19:04:58 -0500 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Mike http://www.plasticaxe.com/2010/01/01/six-degrees-part-v-grand-theft-awesome/#comment-2833 Mike Tue, 05 Jan 2010 18:35:27 +0000 http://www.plasticaxe.com/?p=3213#comment-2833 This one isn't that hard, but I'm in Madison so local lore helps with some of the connections. Robert Patrick (T-1000) is the older brother of Richard Patrick, the lead singer of Filter. On "Take a Picture" (Band Hero), D'arcy Wretzky contributed vocals. She was also the Bass player for Smashing Pumpkins, and therefore played on "Cherub Rock" (RB1 & GHIII) and Today (RB2). Both songs were on the Siamese Dream album, which was produced by Butch Vig. Butch Vig is also the drummer for Garbage, so he's played on "I think I'm Paranoid" (RB); "Why Do You Love Me" (RB DLC) and "Only Happy When it Rains" (GH5) [pick one] with Shirley Manson, the lead singer and also plays the T-1001.
