Do you mean "Hush" by Deep Purple or "Tush" by ZZ Top.

They are both on my iPod, BTW, and good ones... :clapping:

I am sort of surprised that so many other folks are listening to essentially the same stuff that I do. I was expecting more variation in music genres. I'll be searching out some of those cuts that I am not familiar with, and I think that is the fun part.

Here's an off the wall suggestion (and I know that I am really opening myself up for a dog pile with this one) but it works:

Next time you are riding along alone, preferably on a quiet Sunday morning, put on some Enya.

It's almost like going to church, but without all the boring, talking part.

Then follow her up with Led Zeppelin - "Ramble On" and "Battle for Evermore" and you'll feel like you've transcended to Middle Earth...

It probably helps if you had extra 'shrooms on your pizza the night before. :rolleyes:

Now that's some funny stuff there. Hey, has anybody ever done a poll on the average age of the FJR rider? Might shed some light on the music mix...

Yeah, I think the poll selections were:

Almost Dead

Older than Dirt

Really Old

Just Old

Young whippersnapper

I believe that 98% of us fell into the first category.

Waaaaaaaaaay too many songs to choose from so I'll just go by artist.

Most of the time I just like to get out on the country back roads and relax. for those times:

Johnny Cash

Waylon Jennings

John Denver

OLD ZZ Top (pre Eliminator)

Stevie Ray Vaughn

For those times when I just need some aggressive riding:

Korn

Disturbed

Audioslave

Best riding song ever? "Freebird"

Just quoting James Taylor here:

Never give Up, Never slow Down, Never grow old, and Never Die young.

After reviewing all of these selections it comfirms what I already know, my 4 gig mp3 is to small! :)

hehe.. One of my vids from EOM - I believe it was the one riding to Buchanon, has Freebird as a sound track. Unfortunately, when I uploaded it to blip.tv, they ripped out the audio. Doesn't matter, slap on your Ipod, hit bungie4.blip.tv and fire up freebird.

 
There are allot of great songs listed here already......but I have a couple of must haves to add to the list:

Waiting Room - Fugazi

Nice Dreams - Powermad

Cars - Fear Factory (featuring Gary Numan)

Crazier - RICO

How Long Can She Last - Webb Wilder

There are many others...but these are truly essentials!

 
Lot's a great stuff so far!

Here's 3 I like.

Boston, Smokin'

Billy Squire, Whadda Ya Want From Me

Blackfoot, Train Train
