Drugs and liquor are awesome when you're a rock star and banging hookers, but maybe not so great when your friends die and your girl cheats on you when you're on the road.

Bunch of old guys recruit this kid to battle some vague evil that may or may not be a fashion designer run amok, and after some equally vague training and testing decides he's the only one that makes any sense.

Maybe we should start trying to solve some of these before throwing any more out there?

If it's not Tommy, The Lamb, or The Wall, I'm pretty much out on most of these, so don't harsh my mellow.

One is a quasi-repeat of one already listed (but in my defense, there is more than one album that applies) and one, well, if you guys don't get it, apparently I haven't talked about my favorite bands enough.

[The Curious Orange]

The government conducts drugs tests on homosexuals and African-Americans by lacing cologne and mashed potatoes with a substance that turns them into potato-headed, duck-billed racist stereotypes. They perform a Broadway musical that ridicules two members of the audience, first by urinating on them, then by dragging them on stage and tying them to bondage chairs while an evil scientist resurrects dead celebrities. The two audience members get confused with the fictional portrayals of themselves as a young homosexual boy and a blow-up sex doll respectively. The boy and doll have an electronic baby who sleeps in crab-grass, before the woman reveals that she has a radio device concealed in her hair enabling her to communicate with other women and reproduce asexually. She then has intercourse with her briefcase, before the man realises that as a result he is no longer attracted to women, and adopts a submissive role. The couple leave the theatre happy.

Nope, maybe I should have added the "emotionless Aquaman wannabes" to make it more clear.

Humanoid Aliens destroyed their planet, they escaped while everyone else dies and then find an ocean planet and learn to survive within...or so it seems.

I have no idea what that is, but I know I want to hear it.  Now.
