Where Are the Rockers??

[gonzosgirl01]

Not the technos, the trances, the new agers. I'm talking ROCKERS.

Revis, Edgewater, Disturbed, Theory of a Deadman, Nickelback, Finger 11, Foo Fighters.

I need some new stuff!!!

Hey Mandi! I'm a rocker! (well, OK, thats a bit of a stretch, but I like the stuff you mentioned...)

I checked your website... CONGRATS on the downsizing! But both pics look like a pretty cool lady!

After scanning your "profile of the day" or whatever it was... I realize you are pretty darn hip, musically, and I'd be surprised if I could name a single tune you don't already have in your arsenal (see, look, a military reference! I'm really paying attention!).

My most recent purchases were the Spiderman, Matrix Reloaded, and DareDevil sountracks... all of which are loaded with some thrashin' rock and otherwise interesting alternative pop stuff. If you haven't already, check them out!

Oh, sweet of you! But I MUCH prefer the "after" photo (altho bear in mind it was a new year's eve party - that's NOT how I always dress ... just usually! :twisted: )

If you're digging soundtracks, check out the Punisher one. Has some absolutely nipples-out-the-shirt, kielbasa-out-the-shorts tunes for us rockers. Honest. I've went through 3 shirts since I bought it. :shock:

Pink Floyd - Run Like Hell (I know this is not new but haven't seen it mentioned!)
Japunga - Never Again

Korn - Got the Life
Trapt - Headstrong
Tool (I think) - Idle
and to repeat myself again
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Love Rollercoaster (I think you'll like it!)

[Metalspin]

Lets not forget Stone Sour, Powerman 5000, Rammestein and of course Godsmack.
Jala, if you like "Run Like Hell", check out Kittie's version of it.

I love "I Believe In A Thing Called Love" by The Darkness. I haven't used it in class yet, but I'm gonna.

Mandi,

Do you use any music by the band LIVE? I use just about everything I can from their first three albums, "Mental Jewelry", "Throwing Copper" and "Secret Samadhi". I know they've had 3 or so albums since these, but I don't own them. Their music is so emotional with lots of good tempo & volume changes. Plus, they're from Central PA, so I gotta give 'em a plug. They were all like 18-20 years old when "Mental Jewelry" came out in the early 90's. Check it out.

Beer Dude,

I've not, but I'm again paving my road to internet piracy hell by looking them up.

Thx for the heads-up! I knew I wasn't the only rocker out there!

--Mandi

She calls me "Beer Dude" :lol: I'm getting a reputation around here!

To be more specific, here are my favorite LIVE songs

ALBUM: MENTAL JEWELRY
Pain Lies on the Riverside
Operation Spirit
Brothers Unaware
Tired of Me

ALBUM: THROWING COPPER
All Over Me
Lightning Crashes
I Alone
Top
Iris

ALBUM: SECRET SAMADHI
Rattlesnake
Lakini's Juice


That should give you a good start. Off the top of my head, I think I'm missing one from THROWING COPPER. Some of their music has questionable language, but I think you're safe with these selections. Some of my most intense, realistic climbs are from LIVE.

Beer Dude........signing OUT!

[Bike4ale]

Sorry....Beer Dude forgot to log in on that last post. I'm such a loser! :roll:

[gonzosgirl01]

Beer Dude,

Lay off the beer!! Try gin or bacardi (my weapons of choice)!! :twisted:
