1. Pink Floyd - "The Wall" (it's 2-disc set, too!)
2. Weird Al Yankovic - "Bad Hair Day" (I need some funnies)
3. Rush - "The Spirit of Radio: Greatest Hits 1973-1987"
4. Dream Theater - "Train of Thought"
5. Silversun Pickups - "Carnavas" (for mellowing out)
6. Metallica - Load

9. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication
10. Dream Theater - "Metropolis Part 2: Scenes from a Memory" (hidden inside a "Boston" by Boston jewel case) :)

No one checked inside the cases.....
