Turn Up the Music

Home Alone.....

from WinCustomize Forums
Here's the situation...my wife and son are out for a couple hours and I have the house to myself and I'm not expecting company or phone calls.

For me this means turning on some music and making the windows shake....
for me it's usually The Crystal Method, Vegas and/or Weapons of Mass Distortion....


The QUESTION...what do YOU put on when it's just you????

Can't turn it up too much since the people on the other side of my wall might not appreciate my subwoofer.

The Blues A to Z.....anyone and everything goes, especially if it's heavily guitar oriented and the guitarist can make his instrument cry, bark like a dog or wail like a cat on heat.

Rock....well almost everything goes, just not punk and various types of grunge/thrash metal. Fave artists: Led Zeppelin; Black Sabbath; Jimmy Thackery; Ted Nugent; Cream; The Who; Roy Buchanan; Jimi Hendrix; Judas Priest; Marseille; Accept; Krokus; Jethro Tull; Lynyrd Skynyrd; Bill Perry; Wolf Mail; Gary Moore; Jeff Beck; Jeff Healy; John Mayall; Journey; Kenny Wayne Shepherd; Rush; Pink Floyd; Robin Trower. Ten Years After; The Eagles; Grateful Dead; Rory Gallagher; Savoy Brown; Spinal Tap.....and the list goes on and on and on, and on.

Anything played up loud on my PC's 5.1 via my Creative Inspire digital amp will rattle the windows and doors....not just here but next door either side. If I really crank it up on my Sony Hi. fi with the new pre-amp and subbie, I can rattle windows and doors, floor boards and rafters in the next town. Your volume might go to 10, but now mine goes to 60....cos 60's better than 10

Oh, and if anyone considers rap music, they're banished with strict instuctions to NEVER return.....and if they actually put it on, they' re exiled to a 8' x 4' garden locker and fed through the cat flap.

This may be the first and only time I ever agree totally with Starkers.

Well thanks, Boss....and cos it's such an exceedingly rare occasion that anyone has ever totally agreed with me, I'm gonna print your post using a diploma style font and have mounted it in an exquisitely lavish frame with gilded gold trim to commemorate the occasion.

Can always do with some Roy Buchanan, especially Hot Wires, and now and then a very loud Nantucket Sleighride by Mountain is always good for the soul. Procol Harum is also quite essential to me in the autumn of my madness.
