The world outside is eerily calm as we wait for what forecasters are calling a once-in-a-lifetime, perfect storm…Hurricane Sandy. This thousand-mile wide storm is set rock the east coast like no storm that we have ever experienced before, and may likely never experience again in our lifetime. There are tons of songs about rain and storms out there, but not as many hard rock songs as you might expect.
