what do you listen to?

[crash-proof]

After seein the Rush thread, i thought it might be interestin to see what kind of music you're into.
It kinda shows who you are, or when you grew up.

I like led zep, pink floyd and the who, even though that's not my era. Just got back from Red Hot Chilli Peppers show, and might go check out the White Stripes, if my $ allows.
Queens if the Stone Age, another d@mn good band. And depending on the my mood, Steely Dan is perfection.

Wind. If you turn your head slightly, it's like altering the key it's played in, and wind is a symphony.

Splashing water, too. But mostly wind.

Only music that goes in my ears

 

[Long Time Gone]

The Eagles

I took my wife to the Eagles' "Farewell 1" Tour in MCO last month. To anyone who is a fan.........GO. Don't miss it. It was 3 1/2 hours of pure Eagles, including lots of solo from Joe Walsh, Timothy B. Schmit, Don Henley, and Glen Frey. All of the members of the band backed each other up, too, for the others' solo hits.

Then again, there's always Funk.

 

[HAZ-MAT]

Good Thread! Music is important to me. I have different songs and bands I listen to all for different moods. My favorite bands are.
1. Pink Floyd
2. Led Zep
3. 311
I saw Roger Waters in concert about 4 years ago, and he put on a good show and had an excellent back up band. I also just recently saw Linkin Park with Mudvayne, which was an incredible concert. But for right now i have the 8 mile soundtrack in my cd player at home, and in my truck, I have Mudvayne's CD in there, for the dreaded drive on I-240 to get to MEM... funny joke i heard the other day.... How do you know you've left the memphis city limits? When people start using their turn signals again...

 

[LR25]

Voices in my head.

And when there not saying anything, Ill listen to, Jethro Tull, Sly and the Family Stone, Parliment Funkadelics, James Brown (all the people say, hect!) and a few modern folks.

I have to aggree on Dave Mathews Band, of the few songs I have heard on the radio, they sound very unique, just what I like.

All that, and I'm still in my twenties, not for long though, give it another week, the big 30.

 

[ShawnC]

Pink Floyd, and just about everything else I like. I pick and choose from different genres.

 

[uwochris]

Man, you guys know nothing about good music!

The best music comes from Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, (the Rat Pack is really good too), U2, and Weird Al Yankovich. Paul Anka is good too.

 

[Bluto]

"...Frank Sinatra, (the Rat Pack is really good too), U2, and Weird Al Yankovich..."

I have a very good feeling that Sinatra would kick your a$$ for including him in a list with Weird Al. Be grateful he's in a better place.

 

[Deftone45075]

Deftones
Tool
Poison the Well
Taproot
Candiria
Snapcase
V.O.D. (older stuff)
Godsmack
Dave Mathews
David Gray
any decent Jazz bands
anything involving Gene Krupa or Buddy Rich
Sinatra is pretty good as well.

Yeah i paid a hefty price for the eagles too. I saw em here at FLL bout 3 weeks ago. It was ok i guess, but i don't like horn sections. I guess all bands over 50 include them. Joe Walsh is a character, for sure. I did however, want to puke when all of em started dancing when they played "All she wants to do is dance".
Just play hotel california and be over with it!

Another good show i saw last year: The Strokes. Never seen so many hot girls at a concert...

 

[flx757]

Sublime
Coldplay
Three Doors Down
Everclear
Cracker (number 1...always)

AFI
David Gray
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Leo Kottke

When I get nostalgic for my youth...Led Zeppelin, Wishbone Ash, Hendrix, Savoy Brown, The Band, Van Morrison, Allman Brothers Band...

I guess that's a fair sampling, but the list is far too great to list them all here.

 

[mike1mc]

I'll listen to about anything (minus Country and Gngsta Rap)

Jazz (Charlie Parker, Dizzie, Mile Davis)

Barry Manilow rocks! It keeps me awake!

(yea right)

 

[Tailwind]

The sound of one hand clapping...

 

[flywithastick]

anything but heavy metal, gangster rap or alternative whatever. Got me one of those MP3 players a little while back. 4-5000 songs and no skipping. I doubt that I have 1000 songs on all my cds'. Amazing!

Found out flying around with almost any song playing is nice. Had some good Johnny Cash ring of fire going yesterday in the Cub. Was also nice flying up the beach listening to Clint Black and the Gulf of Mexico.

and flying around listening to nothing can be good too sometimes.

 

[Mr Freeze]

Late 70's/80's Ska: The Specials&(coventry automatics)
The Selecter
The English Beat
Bad Manners
Madness
The Untouchables


The Jam & Style Council -w-Paul Weller of course.
3-Oclock and too many others to list.

Most of you probably never heard of these bands. I am lost in the past I guess. I still have my scooters and parka too.

 

[Typhoon1244]

John Williams, Jerry Goldsmith, James Horner, Hans Zimmer, Bernard Hermann, James Newton Howard, Aaron Copland, Igor Stravinsky...looks like I'm a little out of step with you guys.

 

[Bluto]

Typhoon, what's wrong with you?! Music without words is like a book without pictures!

 

[Typhoon1244]

Music without words is like a book without pictures!

I like Steve Martin's King Tut. Does that help?

"Buried with a donkey, heeee's my favorite honkey!"

 

[dmspilot00]

Smooth Jazz

 

[Swass]

Muddy Waters is great for a change of pace.

 

[Deftone45075]

Typhoon, what's wrong with you?! Music without words is like a book without pictures!

No, music without words is just that...music. Too many people lately, focus on who's singing, and how the lyrics go. Words are only there to compliment the music, NOT the other way around. So in your "book" analogy, the music is the pictures. The words are like captions to them, not always necessary.

 

[crash-proof]

I'm surprised there isn't more Buffett fans! What is wrong with you people?!?!

Only thing i like about buffet is his plane - the Albatross!

Cheeseburgers in paradise? please...

 

[flywithastick]

Only thing i like about buffet is his plane - the Albatross!

That Caravan on floats looks fun... but I'm easy when it comes to planes.

Clapton
Floyd
Jimi
Tom Petty
Radiohead
SRV
B.B. King
Buddy Guy
2-Pac
The Scabs
Big Head Todd and the Monsters

[TX_Pilot]

Music....

Kinda into the regional Texas music thing.....
Robert Earl Keen
Pat Green
Jack Ingram
Charlie Robison
The Great Divide
Willie
The Toadies
Cross Canadian Ragweed
A host of others I'm sure noone has heard of
These kind of groups usually play small, outdoor type venues where you can enjoy relaxed music and a cold Shiner. Guess this makes me the dork o' the board! It sure beats the he!l out of the all top 40 all the time the local radio stations out here play. Hard to describe, not really Nashville style country, not quite rock, just the local flavor. See ya!

Porno music is the best

I'm game for anything that sounds good.


Typhoon1244,

Blond girls in mens dress shirts rock, especially when they get up and make you breakfast.

Ah! The Toadies! Good call. Being from Socal, I was conditioned to hate all things country, but I'm gradually beginning to appreciate Willy.
