Pre-game music

Ok, time for a little "off beat" fun.

I've been in locker rooms prior to games in which one of the crew plays his favorite tunes (at a reasonable volume, I might add) through an iPod/iPhone to keep the atmosphere fun and loose while B.S.ing while we get dressed. I loved it and might start putting together a pre game warmup mix together. Of course, the music ended when the R began pre-game.

Anyone else do or been a part of something similar?

Any song ideas for the mix?

Before softball games I usually listen to some sort of metal, anything that is loud and fast, for about 20-30 minutes. Usually gets a beat in my head and it makes the long delay between plays fly by.

I have found that this doesn't work for me in basketball. My mind gets going too fast. I have gone to slow blues songs for the basketball games, Ten Long Years, Three o'Clock Blues, etc. Slows the game way down for me.
