Sound of the Open Road

[PinayDiver]

Call for song recommendations!
Looking out the window as the sun's coming up (pulled an all-nighter to meet a work deadline), I realized it’s the first day of April, first day of Philippine summer…and the expected surge of people to the beaches would mean a slow-going road trip to and from the dive resorts.
Time to refresh the iPod playlist (every bit helps in keeping temperatures at an even keel )
And so, wanting to go beyond what I think I like, I’m very interested in hearing what the customized road-trip music of you divers here include…


Now playing as I'm about to click submit: “Summertime and the living is easy, fish are jumping, the cotton is high…”

I can think of an excellent, sing-along road song:

I can think of an excellent, sing-along road song:

Ill ride shotgun

My must have would be:
Red War by Probot
Shake Your Blood by Probot
Bombs Over Bagdad by Outcast
Voodoo People by The Prodigy
Slam by Pendulum
Most Metallica Machine Head Sepultura S.O.A.D R.A.T.M Guns n Roses.......
Anything metal or fast to match the driving speed

Ok Sarah and Matt, adding metal to the summer playlist. An officemate (who's been trying to turn us on to it since he joined the workteam) was only too glad to hijack my iPod and load two CDs worth of S&M (from "The Esctasy of Gold" to "Battery")

He also sat me down to listen to Metallica's:
...And Justice For All
Breadfan
My Friend of Misery
One

Megadeth's
Skin O' My Teeth
Holy Wars
99 Ways to Die

and Rage Against the Machine's
People of the Sun
Bulls on Parade
Down Rodeo

...beaming like a proud parent throughout. I'm getting an education alright

Anymore suggestions?

What about when you're back in your resort room at the end of a 2-dive-day, trying to wind down, knowing you have to wake up early the next morning for a pre-breakfast dive date with thresher sharks?

[Sarah]

Yes,

Etlon John's classics, like

Tiny Dancer
60 years On
Funeral for a Friend/Love, Lies Bleeding
High Flying Bird
Levon
Roy Rogers
Mona Lisas and Mad Hatters
Madman Across the Water
Harmony

And since I just saw him play Saturday night at the Staples Center where the Lakers call home, Josh Grobin.

[Zero]

Why wind down? Just keep charging hard.
Good Aussie band thats soft is The John Buttler Trio. Got a few of their albums
Jerry Cantrell ex Alice in Chains is also pretty good.

What about "in the summertime" by Mungo Jerry
or Summertime by Will Smith & Jazzy P

or, for something completely different - whatabout Soca or Reggae

Oh no, you did not go to Bob, no that is MY kind of music. Here is a great Bob song that I just love.
