Post by: Latrobe on September 27, 2007, 03:00:51 AM
Just curious on what everyones favorite band is. Want to know what you may be listening to as you fly. I live in America but I love the European Bands! Nightwish, Rhapsody of fire, Kamelot, and the newer ones I've found out about - Elvenking and DragonForce.


So, What's yours?

Hard call

What I have enjoyed the most _the last few months_ has been Maximo Park, Death Cab For Cutie and Interpol.

My list of favorite bands is in the 20s and i would never be able to pick just one.

     Musical tastes do not belie age......


Zeppelin, Floyd, Dead, James Brown, Gene Krupa, Galactic, Dave Brubeck...  I'll stop there.  Being the owner of a DJ company ruins it for me.  With ~100+ Gigs of music, not to mention videos and karaoke (all played with laptop) it makes it REALLY hard to answer that question.  There is not much I wouldn't listen to.

I don't listen to music when I fly. It moves my FR from 40 down to about 10.

But TxDad just got me the microsoft version of the ipod (don't know what it's called). I loaded a whole bunch of music onto it yesterday: trapt, vivaldi, craig morgan, offspring, ella fitzgerald.  Tonight I'll load george strait, frankie vallie & the four seasons, the everly brothers... and maybe the eagles.:aok

Blue Öyster Cult/Pink Floyd (tie)

That's based on both "I like their music" and "Their live performance is brilliant".

I do listen to and enjoy everything from classical to ragtime to marching bands to big band to bluegrass to country-western to rockabilly to doo-wop to well you get the picture. I like the new rock acts as well as the old ones. But, those two are definitely my favorites.

i remember u once tried to convince me of Yes's brilliance by quoting "Tormato" lyrics.

I still think Yes's first album is their best....Bruford all over it in dynamic smatters.



Overall the really fleshed out a sound on their first try.."Bruford & Squire" re-invented the rock-rythm section and Jon Anderson's pretensions were firmly in check.

Steve Howe was a nice addition though..lol !

Seen the Film awesome - Is based on Tony Wilson the Creator of the Hacienda and Factory Records, who sadly passed away earlier this year.

Tony brought us in the UK many great bands like - New Order, Joy Division, James, Northside and Happy Mondays to name a couple.

These girls are not only my good friends, but two of a new favorites. They are LA locals on indie labels, hot punker type chicks with tats, not unlike your typical suicide girls

Shanna Kiel "Orphan", shes smokin hot.
http://www.myspace.com/blackfurmusic - videos
http://www.rhapsody.com/shannakiel/orphan - full album preview free

The Fabulous Miss Wendy, also hot:
http://www.rhapsody.com/thefabulousmisswendy/oohmygod - Album
http://www.myspace.com/thefabulousmisswendy - videos (the bottom was taken at Kulaks Woodshed)

BOTH Shanna & Wendy play regular shows at The Fox and Hound in Studio City, Cali 9pm on the 1st Tuesday of each month.

Of course (hed)pe for some loud kickass rapcore-punk way too dirty for the raidio:

How much trouble has it given you? It took me forever to figure out how the software works and how to actually upload videos on the stupid thing.

I have to format an AVI into an MP4, then when I synch to the nutty thing, it has to convert again into some unknown format.


24 shows at 23 minutes each will take about 7 hours to synch to it. I just leave it go overnight and usually its done when I wake up.

I haven't tried to load any videos yet ~ only music.  Actually, I think the first time I plugged it into my computer it loaded whatever videos I have on my computer automatically ~ like the one that sanjini has posted on the AH main page.  I think it only took a few minutes though.
And I haven't 'figured anything out' about it yet at all, other than purchasing music. Sorry!

I think I used the built in FM radio once.

And the picture showy thing, I have a few pictures but long pictures horizontally look like crap.

I have a few songs, but mostly use it to watch shows on. I'll upload them and watch them when I have a little free time.

Favorite of all time Metallica..

Favorite Metallica Song.. Sad But True (possibly the most killer groove in all of metal history.

2.Alice in Chains
3.Nirvana
4.Pantera
5.Guns N Roses
6.Nine inch Nails
7.Soundgarden
8.Megadeth
9.Tool
10.White Zombie

Honorable Mention..
