erik Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 This post is a follow up and addition to MR. Good Time's posts of more to life then climbing. So since we all have to drive so many hours to reach those fabled crags and mountain ranges that we all desire so much. We have lots of idle time. So what music does everyone like around here? I enjoy most: Bob Marley-duh Ben Harper Neil Young Pink Floyd Modest Mouse Nine Inch Nails Dave Siemans & Gov't Mule to name a few. p.s. Ben Harper will be in seattle on 5/24 ans spokane 5/21 and van b.c. a day in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 Prong, Sabbath, Helmet, Pantera, Metallica old stuff, Slayer, and Megadeth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 Captain, your "music" sounds like a gear list. Try some Hank Williams, Hank Williams Jr., Willie Nelson, Leonard Skinyrd, and Waylun Jennings. If you need any samples, let me know. Bronco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 It is a gear list man. Satisfies as the ultimate motivator for cragging. Sweat Leaf for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpine_Tom Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 For a long time, my car cd was KSRV, "all Stevie Ray all the time." I've broadened out (in more ways than one) I highly recommend The Boss Joan Jett (I've still got a crush on her!) Sleater Kinney (esp. Dig Me Out) Papa Chubby another vote for Bob Marley, and Ziggy M. Dave Edmunds On the way back from Colchuck, Mr. GT turned me on to Spearhead, and I've got their two best albums now, but I've only got to play them at work so far.

Dru Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 Hey Caveman - what about David Lee Roth - the man solos in the Sierras afterall just like peter croft In terms of Music Tastes I will vote today for The Residents, Bill Laswell, RL Burnside, Massive Attack, Neil Young, Devo, Kid Koala, Public Enemy, RZA, Coltrane, Tom Waits, Banco de Gaia and Shirley Bassey. My opinions tomorrow may change drastically. [This message has been edited by Dru (edited 05-09-2001).] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highclimb Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 i am embarred by you guys.......HOW COULD ANYONE LEAVE OUT LED! i highly recommend after you have finished a kick ass climb to listen to misty mountain or rock and roll. those are great. and on the way to the climb listen to RAmble on with the volume up. nothing gets you in the mood to climb like led zep. i also enjoy rap but i know all you old farts hate the stuff so i will never bother you about listening to it sabbath, cream, the doors, beattle, blink 182, nirvana, tupac, dr. dre, snoop, ice cube,none of that p*&%y shit rap only hard stuff ummmmmmm basicly anything that isn't counrty or disco Aidan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon Posted May 9, 2001 Share Posted May 9, 2001 Eric- Good idea bro. I've seen Ben Harper live twice and he is a pretty incredible musician. Thanks for the heads up. Aidan- I didn't think most people your age listened to Zeplin. Not everyone here is an old fart, just caveman. My list is way too big so I'll just put down some favorites and stuff I've been finding. Hendrix- I saw this chick hump his statue naked, no kidding. Ben Harper- Plays lap slide guitar, does some incredible Hendrix covers Rage- Listen to this before soccer games and take peoples heads off. Morelo is the man. Jurasic 5- Just heard of these guys. It's rap and it's good shit. The Doors- Makes some people totally tweak out. Fatboy Slim- Some funky stuff, some tracks will put you in the zone. If anyone says Kid Rock I'm going to steal cavemans club and shove it up your pendejo (than give it back to caveman!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt.Caveman Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 Hey Johnny watch the old fart comments. I am 28 yrs young does that koalify me as old??? Aidan you just keep quiet on this or I promise to drag you up a gnarly chimney climb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjizzy Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 How about a semi-old farts (older than caveman, younger than Donini, Hargis, and JM) choice of Iggy Pop, Bruce Williams, Tom Lykis, and the Sex Pistols. Don't mention Led Zeppilin too loud, or CircleK will climb up on his electro lounge music bullshit soapbox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenolith Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 JCB, Bela Fleck, Dead from the 70s and 80s, Galactic Funk, PFunk, Bud Powell, Mingus, Britney... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
highclimb Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 I am the only guy in my middle school that listens to zep. they all think i am weird its funny i didnt mean to offend you caveboy i hope its not an overhanging, offwidth, slippery chimmey or worse yet Hyperspace!!!!! AHHHHHHH the presure chamber is suppose to suck!! dont get any ideas! Aidan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanr Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 I guess I'm totally in the minority here, but I have to go with folky hillbilly music. Anything bluegrass, Nanci Griffith, Iris Dement, Dwight Yoakam, Gillian Welch, Emmylou Harris, etc., etc. If it don't twang at least a little bit, it ain't worth listening to. Now if you want something so twangy it'll make your ears bleed, you gotta check out BR5-49 or Freakwater. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronco Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 Don't leave out N.W.A. - the original hard core rappers they rock the houuuuuuuuse. Great pre climb motivator and really impresses the chicks. Bronco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pope Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 Frank Zappa, Johnny Hartman, Johnny Thunders, Dylan with Cash, Wayne Shorter, Clash, Spice Girls, Big Bowel and the Movements. Hey Dru, did you forget Brian Adams? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 Britney Spears Backstreet boys (slightly more technical) Christina Aguillera (leads 5.12 sport) 98 degrees (best for longer climbs) These are just some of the classics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

none_dup1 Posted May 10, 2001 Share Posted May 10, 2001 No one has mentioned MC 900 Foot Jesus, Dr. Dre, Tupac, US3, or French rapper MC Solar. Or Travis Shredd & the Good Ol' Homeboys. They'll make you want to sleep with your cousin. And Spearhead. See them live. Michael Franti married a local gal, and they play here often. You can still get stoned in the bathroom at the Show Box, but be careful. Did I write that? Gotta love Iggy, Ben Harper, Dave Matthews, Peter Murphy, Malcolm McClaren, Camper Van Beethoven, Jimmy Dale Gilmore, Dwight Yoakum (man, can he pelvic thrust on stage), and yes, Aidan, even Led Zep. And don't forget Peter Gabriel. Mostly, whatever tunes turn you on, there is nothing finer than getting back to the car at the end of a dirt road, cranking the stereo while you crack a cold one from the cooler, and basking in the afterglow of a good climb with good friends. Party on, Wayne. [This message has been edited by MrGoodTime (edited 05-10-2001).] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
