Tyson Trivia:(this was contributed by rissah) Tyson won't drive with the radio on. The music distracts him from coming up with his own riffs.As a kid, he stayed up past bedtime watching AC/DC videos with his dad. Tyson's biggest fan is his eight-year-old sister. (that one ive been told twice, i forgot who told me, if it was u then e-mail me)
