What are you listening to

[Mr Bond]

Time to drag this thread up again to see what every one is listenin to.

I am rockin out to a disc i discovered @ the library a week ago.

QUEENSRYCHE "the warning"

Its the ultimate 80's metal/cockrock sound(1984) from the cover, to the band shot on the sleeve(mega big hair,spandex and leather)to the choir boy voice of the singer and all the fat/fancy guitar leads, keyboards and riffs.
This is pure old school metal indulgence. :super:

Kentucky Headhunters
Ricochet

I've just "discovered" Jeff Buckley's CD 'Grace'. Great music. CD has been played over and over in my car.

I guess I will be listening to U2 cd's for a little while longer. They just cancelled the Oz leg of their tour.
Big time bummer, but at least I am not living next door to Wadey & listening to that old time stuff!
Cheers

!@#$ING what? why? .....spewing i was really looking forward to it.

 

[Busboy]

Hopsta, don't fret. The U2 concert has not been cancelled, just postponed. Sickness in the family or something.

 

[Hopsta]

Cheers Busboy your right i just read, postponed due to sickness in "the edges" family.

 

[Duff]

That is a bummer, we were in for the first show on the Friday night. They'll probably reschedule for a Monday night now...

Cheers.

I received a nice CD player and turntable when I finished Year 12. My first vinyl which was given to me (and I must stress that part):

Tina Turner's Greatest Hits :blink:

As a stay at home Dad I can safely say that I know the words to every Wiggles song, & the steps to some of the dances!

Only some of the dances? Youre not trying Everybody clap...

I reckon I've only got another year of the wiggles to put up with. The youngest is just starting to loose interest.

Currently working my way through 20GB of mp3s at the moment. Its what you might call an ecclectic collection.

Cheers

Airgead thats quite impressive! How many songs does that equate to?

I have only 5GB, most of mine are about 128kps too which really does degrade the quality!

The media library comes to 4189 individual tracks by 242 artists and come from 495 albums. Thats 12 days, 4 hours, 24 minutes and 11 seconds without having to listen to the same song twice. Most are at 192 or higher.

And that doesn't count podcasts.

And I still have a bunch of CDs at home that I haven't ripped yet.

Whew! Just read through the whole topic!
I was surprised no one has given Pearl Jam a mention... Probably my favourite modern band... Can play a rockin, energetic, upbeat song or they are just as good with the slow ballady stuff. Alice In Chains I'd put into this category as well!
Other older bands worth a mention would have to be Cold Chisel (everyone has yelled out the chorus of Khe Sahn in a drunken stupor at some point or another), Dire Straits, ZZ Top, CCR.
But with the newer stuff... can't go past Metallica, Pantera, earlier Korn stuff etc :super:
