Well guys - what would ya ride/drive/work/listen to mosta the time - for me, it tends to be a variety (depending on the mood at the time), but includes - Texas - Nickel Back :thumbup: :thumbup: - AC/DC :thumbup: - Midnite Oil - Jimmy Barnes :thumbup: - Shania Twain :lick: - Phil Collins - Meatloaf - The Corrs - 3 Doors Down :thumbup: :thumbup:

:umm: :umm: - think thats most of what is in the ute at the moment - what gives your ears a hiding, besides the sound of a Ducati exhaust :thumbup: .....??

Lately? Liquid Tension Experiment #2 & Steve Vai's latest. Although I've been digging along w/ some of Vai's older stuff at work, too - Ultra Zone (especially "Frank"), Alien Love Secrets, Live in an Ultra World ...

Was in the ute today, & noticed CDs from a great - great singer missing of the above list - SPRINGSTEEN!!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
Absolutely love Darlington County, Working on the Highway, Glory days etc etc - real neat songs!!! Same with 'The River', where he preludes it with the talk about the father & son, in relation to the Vietnam War..........just goes straight to the soul....... :thumbup: :thumbup:

While I'm talking bout 'Bruce' - there's not often that I have sympathy for Harley owners, but I certainly did at their Centenary Celebrations, when Elton-bloody-John was the singer there..... :thumbdown: :thumbdown: :confused:
I'm sure there was probably politics involved - etc etc - but how would ya feel if ya'd shipped your beloved bike around the world, then rode it accross the USA to the celebrations, to find a limp-wristed Pommy singer is the 'entertainment'........
They've had 100yrs to 'think about it', & thats what they came up with?????!!!!!!
Have heard there was a heap of owners there, that were just 'gutted', (as ya would be!!!)
Would have been a perfect event for 'The Boss', I reckon....... :thumbup:

Blues Brothers Soundtracks!- Wiggsy you are talking my language man! I love them too & keep them with me here at work so I can play them loud when i go out in the work vehicles

I am a Blues man, nothing like a bit of John Lee Hooker or early ray charles (when he was real Bluesy). I love old music (20-50's ) as well as Old R & B. This new R&B just is not worthy of the name & anoys me a lot. I love Arethe Franklin (what a woman). I also love Jazz & folk. I am pretty into Irish music too. Love the Pogues! as well as LuKa Bloom & that sort of thing. I tend to like the more independant stuff such as Ani de franco, stuff with a raw edge to it.

Then there are the classics such as Elvis, Orbison, Diamond, Nina Simone, Lady Day etc. Can't beat this stuff.

I will listen to most music but can't stand real heavy metal or techno. I don't like all that commercial stuff either.

I guess I am showing my age here, (even though it is mid 30's) I just got the Blues real bad

I am also really into the Bagpipes (much to the discust of my kids on a Sunday morning when the weather is not good for a ride)

I never did see Blues Brothers #2, but the original has long been a favorite, and I've listened to those two albums from the original movie since I was kid.



rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrubber bisCUIT!

C'mon Red - theres no way you're my age & lisiening to that stuff mate............. :thumbdown:

It is really good stuff Duck! it has rythm & style & soul & emotion & all that stuff. I listen to all the stuff you mentioned (except Shania Twain.....mate what are you think with here :laugh: :screwy: :laugh: ) I am a big fan of the Boss :thumbup:
I grew up listening to Icehouse & the Oils & had teh biggest thing for Sharon O'Neil (she was one hot Kiwi :lick: ) But i just love Jazz & Blues, have a good listen yourself, it is good stuff.

I guess sometimes I am an old man, I owned a BMW @ 22 :screwy:

Faster - get down to the Video shop & hire Blues brothers 2000, it is brilliant :thumbup: A lot of people gripped that it was just the same as teh first one but that is what makes it so great, It Is the Same!! It is very cleverly made & the soundtrack is awesome Even if you don't like the movie buy th esoundtrack :thumbup:

Ohhhhhh yes - Mmmmmmm - Sharon O'Neil ......... :lick: Oh dear - The Nurse, is calling for my medication again........

I reckon she was the sexiest thing ever to leave your Island (I will resist the urge for sheep jokes out of respect for you & Skins) :laugh: :thumbup:

Maaaaate - growing up while seeing her in that video to the song 'Maxine' - daaaaamn - all good!!! :lick: :lick: :thumbup: :thumbup:

I saw her live in Newcastle a few times & once when I was right up the front shewas wearing all skin tight black lycra & she turned around & wiggled her butt in my face (no more than 50cm away) :lick: It remains one of the happiest memories of my life. I turned to my mate next to me in total amazement to see that he was standing up & was asleep & missed the whole thing

Ah the memories

Only an Aussie would fall asleep, standing up, at a concert..........I don't know........... :umm: :umm:
Shes still fairly tidy............. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Yeah he was a dropkick anyway.

I heard she is now a top notch Laywer or something along those lines after her really drawn out court case with her record company she quit music & studied law to stick it up 'em is this right?
