Have to agree with the Pink Floyd mentions, also.

Definately agree with Gilmour being underated. His guitar work is awesome, I have his first solo album (self titled) and it is a great album.
Roger Waters as he was the brilliance behind nearly all the Floyd albums tad unfortunate about his ego though.

I wouldn't necesarily say they are my heroes, more idols, source of inspiration and much joy, etc. I don't know, it depends on your personal definition of hero, and I honestly can't give one. I hesitate to say they are my heroes because all they did was produce music. (music which is very influential and means alot to me mind you) but it is not like they are standing in front of tanks, fighting for rights for citizens, and all that stuff, etc. Hard to say, so all I can say is what I said earlier, it depends on your personal definition of hero.


one more person, or group Id like to mention would be everyone who has contributed to the marijuana legalization issue, namely Marc Emery.

Audie Murphy. He was a World War 2 hero, and was awarded 28 medals, including the Medal of Honor, 3 medals from the French government, and one from the Dutch. He earned his MoH in a battle against a vastly superior German force; he jumped on top of a crippled tank and used its mounted machine gun to stave the Germans off almost singlehandedly while his squad regrouped, even though he got shot like 4 times in the process, then his troops reorganized, came back and one the battle.

If thats not freakin amazing i don't know what is. I don't wanna sound like some big war junkie or anything, but anyone who does that is deserving of our everlasting respect and gratitude.

Yes, yes, there are many more than what is simply on that shirt, such as George Washington, James Madison, Ben Franklin, Davey Crockett, Marco Polo, Friedrich Barbarossa, Audie Murphy (who sounds like an amazing fellow), etc.

Oddly, no one has mentioned Jesus Christ. I'd say he's one of my heroes, even though I'm not necessarily Christian.

If he's alive, you should tell him that. Call him up or walk downstairs or whatever, but let him know how much you respect and admire him. I'm sure it would make him very happy.

I don't have any heroes...I've just never wanted any heroes. There are those who I love and respect, but I don't idolize anyone.
