What's on your iPod?
 
so...anyone other than SRW have Britney Spears on their iPod?

Skahtboi Fri Dec 18, 2009 11:08pm

Mine has a bizarre mix of artists that most people have never heard of, it seems. A little of nearly every genre, as well.

Skahtboi Fri Dec 18, 2009 11:09pm

Oh...and no Britney!

NCASAUmp Fri Dec 18, 2009 11:15pm

Eff. No.

Though I do have Shakira on mine. Hey, it's for the wife (both she and Shakira are Hispanic/Lebanese mix). :D

SRW, we've gotta talk, man.

wadeintothem Fri Dec 18, 2009 11:59pm

Well I guess .. me and skah finally have something in common. I have something from just about every genre from Johnny Horton to Roger Miller, Sam Cooke, Janis Joplin, Toby Keith, Temptations, Pink Floyd, ACDC Metalica Linkin Park Alabama, Eminem to Topoc .. I have it all...

..But not a single song of britney spears.

IRISHMAFIA Sat Dec 19, 2009 12:35am

Right now, Christmas music, from Manheim Steamroller to the Tran Siberian Orchastra, Julie Andrews to Brenda Lee, Byan Adams to Bing Crosby, Waitresses to Judy Garland, Burl Ives to Luciano Pavarotti, Sergio Franchi to Bobby Helms and let's not forget, Gene Autry

Last month or so it was Santana, John Mayall, Gatemouth Brown, The Funky Meters, The Radiators, Pine Leaf Boys, Better Than Ezra, Muddy Waters, Pete Seeger, Doc Watson, Little Feet, Marcia Ball, Tab Benoit, Robert Cray, Dr. John, Dumpstafunk, Johnny Winter..... and a bundle of other bands

wadeintothem Sat Dec 19, 2009 01:01am

no brit????

outathm Sat Dec 19, 2009 03:44am

I have a huge variety, but the two best play lists are my pre-game, which is full of pump up music, and the post game I haven't had a chance to use yet, which I have titled 'tossed coach'. I also have a 'drinking' play list full of irish pub songs and any song I could find that referred to alcohol ie. "I like Beer" by Tom T. Hall. No Britney though.

Very, very excellent choices there, Mike! :D

I've got an iPod Classic, so I never take anything off. Abridged list:
AC/DC, Aerosmith, Alice in Chains, Anthrax, BB King and Clapton, Barenaked Ladies, Beastie Boys, Beatles, Beck, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, Bill Idol, Billy Joel, Black Crowes, Black Eyed Peas, Bloodhound Gang, Bon Jovi...

Well, you get the idea. It's a mix. A big mix.

Rachel Sat Dec 19, 2009 10:45am

My favorites are Yes, Jethro Tull, Massive Attack, Superchick, Charlie Roth(my brother), Charlie Parr, John Elliot, Dave Matthews, Led Zeplin, P!nk, Pink Floyd, Clapton, Ray Bonneville, Dixie Chicks, Darrel Scott, BB King among MANY others. I love music.

umpirebob71 Sat Dec 19, 2009 01:00pm

I've never owned one, and I don't think I've ever listened to one. I have no idea how to put music in an iPod.

You have a computer, right? :rolleyes:

If not, you are years beyond the need for one.;)

RKBUmp Sat Dec 19, 2009 07:48pm

Seger, Eagles, Cheap Trick, Def Leppard, AC DC, Styx, Kansas, Nickelback, Toby Keith, Heart, Loverboy, Foreigner, Chic, Earth Wind and Fire, Peachs and Herb, KC and the Sunshine Band....... I have some 3,000 songs on mine.

You're probably right. I can't remember when I had music on anywhere other than in my car.

marvin Mon Dec 21, 2009 04:03am

I use my phone as my portable music player and have about 6 GB of music on it.

Some of my favorites (with links to some videos):

Concrete Blonde, Brownsville Station (another Brownsville video) , Rachelle van Zanten, Sue Foley, Steppenwolf, KT Tunstall, The Who, Bob Dylan, Black Sabbath, Joan Osborne, INXS, and The Cure.

SRW Mon Dec 21, 2009 02:30pm

Ok, so I think I need to explain.

There is no Britney Spears on my iPod.

bkbjones saw a funny posting I put on FaceBook and ran with it.

Thank you very much. Jerk. :mad:

(Snip).

I with you on the pre-game, 100%

For the rest of my listening, add earlier Jazz, Swing, Gypsy Jazz, etc, etc.

Also not mentioned previously (and somewhat outside of the Jazz world)would be Bob Wills, Johnny Gimble, Gram Parsons, Emmy Lou Harris, Lefty Frizzel, Willie Nelson, Roy Rogers, Asleep at the Wheel, ..........

Let's see my Pandora Stations???
"A Night in Tunisia"
"Barney Kessel Radio"
"BeBop Radio"
"Bye Bye Blackbird"
The Byrds Radio
Cake Radio
Celtic Woman
Charlie Christian Radio
Cracow Klezmier Radio
Dan Hicks Radio
Django Reinhardt Radio

and that's just thru "D"

It must be a Bob thing. I've never owned one, or even held one. I'm sure it would take me about two seconds to figure out how to upload music on one, but again, like Bob, I don't remember the last time I was listening to music anywhere other than in my car. Even in my car, I'm just as likely to have on sports radio or talk radio rather than music. Yes, I know it's possible to connect an iPod to a car stereo, but I already have satellite radio, and that suits me just fine. At work, my personal experience has been that engineering companies frown upon employees listening to music, especially if it entails using earphones. They want people to be able to hear their phone ringing, or pages, or to just be readily available when important people come to inform us of some dire, urgent googleygoop.

FWIW, if I did own one, I probably would load it up with the Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, Ramones, B***hole Surfers, Circle Jerks, Dirty Rotten Imbeciles, Sex Pistols, Gun Club, X, Joy Division, Damned, Iggy Pop, etc. Maybe throw on some Texas music like Joe "King" Carrasco, the Judys, the Dishes, and Rank and File.

It wouldn't bother me if SRW did have Britney on his iPod. Heck, I have a Loverboy album somewhere in my basement :o.

TXFPBlue Tue Dec 22, 2009 12:33pm

Eclectic Collection
 
From a-ha to ZZ Top and 18457 songs in between, nearly everything from Ernest Tubb to Celine Dion and Pantera, have between 10 to 15 movies that I rotate in and out. But then I was a disc jockey for 22 years and even owned a record store (remember records) in the 80's. Plus have three teen-aged daughters that keep me hopping into the new millenium.
P.S guilty have a bunch of Britney songs and even have Adam Lambert

You're welcome. I have come to the realization, many years ago, that I will never have a complete collection no matter how hard I try, even if I had the money to buy this collection.

Considering the names you mentioned, especially Willie Nelson, I don't think it is that far of a stretch to think it could be the Delta Rhythm Kings.

Roy Rogers | bio

First time I saw the band was at SunFest in West Palm Beach. Granted, it was about a dozen years ago, but he's still good.

Well and truth be told, he could be on my play list, as his style is represented, just haven't gotten around to him.
Coincidently, he played here (Sebastian, FL) - a free little Sunday afternoon thing.

Unfortunately, I was in Gainesville watching my daughter graduate (along with Stacey Nelson, Tim Teabow and a few thousand others..... (Proud father - I had to stick that in):D

Wow! You must have never played them. Otherwise they would have jammed on the 10th play and ended up, like all the rest, in the trash. :cool:

HugoTafurst Sat Dec 26, 2009 06:03pm

Billy Joel, ZZ Top, Third Day, Newsboys, Tom Petty, Foreigner, Journey, Bon Jovi, Hootie and the Blowfish, Gary Allan, Brad Paisley, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Lee Ann Womack,Alison Krauss and Union Station, Drop Kick Murphys, Flogging Molly, Social Distortion, Soundtrack to Band of Brothers with the London Metropolitan Orchestra, Soundtrack to Braveheart with the London Symphony Orchestra

SergioJ Tue Dec 29, 2009 07:24am

OK, I don't have an IPOD. But I too got a SIRIUS radio for my car for Christmas. But if I did have an IPOD, here's my list:

1. Smooth Jazz
2. Old Skool R&B
3. Country (like Reba and not Willie)
4. Mexican (includes TexMex)

Now, if I only knew Santa personally.
