Little Jimmy ****ens, Waylon Jennings, Hank I,II,III, Lucero, Allman Brothers, Whiskeytown, Social D, Uncle Tupelo, Wilco, Chuck Berry, Against Me!, Junior Brown, New Riders of the Purple Sage, Grateful Dead, Steve Earle, Townes Van Zandt, Fred Eaglesmith, Howlin' Wolf, Bo Diddley, Corb Lund Band, Kevin Fowler, BR-549, The Derailers....etc...anything cl***ic rock, punk, blues, bluegr***, rockabilly or do-wop.
Mostly I listen to cl***ic hard rock, AC/DC, Van Halen, etc. But these are in the MP3 player right now: Motorhead Guns & Roses Motley Crue Manowar Ratt Warrant But that's probably because my Trans-Am is apart in my shop right now.. Remember.. Other bands play, Manowar KILLS!!!! Shawn
Oh yea, AC/DC! I have been listening to this for 30 years and still like it. Others: Tool Corrosion of Conformity Accept (who said that? Probably the best almost famous metal band ever) Carl Orf (yea, opera but make me wanna rev it up til parts go through the hood) Metallica Warrior Soul NIN Ozzy Most 80s hair bands And, when I feel like just riding around all calm: Chris Issac A3 Driving & Crying On the way to and from work? - NPR
dammit...I tried chopping a 26 TT while listening to Dean Martin once, I wound up welding the top on backwards... From then on I swore off the rat pack stuff until after the work was done, my strange music mix keeps everyone else out of the carport so I can work instead of talking...Alice Cooper, Artie Shaw, Junior Brown, and Cl***ic Southern Gospel cd's in the changer keeps people away...the wusses...cant handle a little variety!
DROP-KICK MUR-PHYS.... DROP-KICK MUR-PHYS.... DROP-KICK MUR-PHYS.... For Boston, For Boston we sing our proud refrain. For Boston, For Boston 'tis wisdom's earthly fame. For here all are one and our hearts are true. And the towers on the heights reach the heavens' own blue. For Boston, For Boston 'til the echoes ring again!
paintin' late at night to Metallica(early). If I get in the zone, i'll put three xtra coats of clear on, before I know it!
YES!!! And don't forget the Street Dogs - Mike McCulgan's (original Dropkick singer) new band. Just saw 'em in Austin the weekend of the Roundup.
Im a big AC/DC fan as well, and yea, it pumps me up on working in the garage or drawing. I come up with wicked drawings with fast hard rocking tunes. But if Im listening to the cl***ic rock radio station, nothing ****S more than a ****ty slow song after a run of three good rockin ones. or a string of stupid ads. My CD player is broken right now, So I get to deal with the roller coaster of fast/slow productivity. My favs in the garage are AC/DC, Van Halen, White Zombie, Rollins Band In my ride... NO F'IN RADIO!! Nothing but American V8 Rumble!! God, theres nothing better than listening to the motor and exhaust. Havent had a radio in the car or truck for 10 years or more now. Never get tired of that sound...
I know im bringing back an old thread, but in the shop I like to listen to... Dope Metallica ac/Dc Distrbed Rev. Horton Heat Psycho DeVilles Johnny cash Led Zeppelin The Doors Boston Alice Cooper GodSmack and stuff like that... Jordan

70's Rock ala early KISS, STARZ, ANGEL, early AEROSMITH, ROTH era VAN HALEN only, 80's Glam such as VAIN, SKID ROW, MAXIMUM, KEEL, ICON, KING KOBRA........etc...........
Man I will build to any type of music but lately I've been in to" The Greteful Dead". That whats keeping me building (Thanks T.P. aka ZIBO)
Dead Kennedys, Voodoo Glow Skulls, *** Pistols, that's where its at. Along with new heavier **** like Slipknot, The Black Dahlia Murder, Maylene and the Sons of Disaster. I love underground hip hop though, it doesn't fit the board though so I won't post those names.
Alternative country: Uncle Tupelo, Son Volt, Wilco, Ryan Adams, Whiskeytown and rockers the Black Crowes represent my ideal hot rods...hard, rough, raw, not-polished or overly produced...amazing the parallels now that I think of it!!!
