Another Suggestion....
 

You could go out and buy the cd called Ray's House by Ray Munns... it's all FIRSTy music....


:cool:

Re: Another Suggestion....
 

i just downloaded some of their songs today. and i'll have to say, it's pretty good. i think i may have to buy it. or i may just burn my own copy:cool:

i agree on both counts...and if the band does get up there im sure well play some blink...and ive been spending the past week or so figuring out fat lip...(again though, we dont know if were gonna be able to pull this band idea off for nats, much less battlecry in a couple of days...we havent even played together yet...but its being worked on)

Fuel...Hemmorage
 

Yeah...if you could go ahead and throw Hemmorage by Fuel in the mix somewhere...I'd really appreiate it.

What is this!!!!!!
 

What is this I hear a band? What type of rock music do you guys play

well......
right now the whole things sorta just a plan...but we have the people and all that, just lack certain things like motivation and stuff...

but we listen to all sorts of stuff: coal chamber, rage, sum 41, blink, korn, nirvana, dropkick murphy's, green day.........

Re: Yes! Plus more.....
 

That would be Reel 2 Reel's "I Like to Move It" and The Ramones' "I Wanna Be Sedated," respectively :-)

As for me. . . well, I'll be happy with any sort of old school rap . . . or Rammstein. Rammstein is cool, and loud, and would probably suit the competition. Who cares if you can understand a word they're saying?

Actually. . .I'll be happy as long as you promise not to play any Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, *NSYNC, Backstreet Boys, or anything else that's similarly saccharine.

Re: Re: Yes! Plus more.....
 

I'm sorry...but I'm brought back to '99 and I remember a certain dance that was done by Michael and Mike Tria (another old teammate) to "Apache" by the Sugar Hill Gang. And I also rememebr Rammstein being played in the pits by my team. ::sigh:: memories.

As far as the teeny bopper music (sorry to anyone who's obsessed with those groups)...I heard them far too much at the regional competition. So, I wouldn't mind staying away from that.

Just my two cents. Hmm...if it's a penny for your thoughts, and I put in my two cents...where does the other penny go? Sorry...just had to ask.

~Christina ºoº

yeah...ive thought of that too...seems like someones profitting off it.

as far as the teeny-boppers...heres my main problem with them (other then that the music is horrible): they dont play their own music, they dont write their own music, they dont write their own lyrics, and when they sing, their voices are altered tons so that what you hear isnt even them...so its never made sence to me: seems like all they do is sing the words, but they dont sing well enough to sell so they have to be altered.
and they call it music???

mike who feels obligated to add that no offence is intended to anyone who likes teeny-bopper music (:::shudders:::) - you can like youre music and ill question youre taste

You'd be surprised how truly talented some of the teeny-boppers really are.

Nsync really can sing, i've heard them sing acapella (another genera of music I really enjoy, yet didn't seem to fit very well in a competition playlist, but for your napster junkies, lookup Rockapella's rendition of Dave Matthew's Band Satellite, and keep in mind it's all human voices, no instruments), and they really have range, stlye, and rhytm.

Christina Aguilera really has range and talent I could not believe the sheer power of her voice, for the size of here, she's like 99 pounds.

Another good example, One of the singers from Eve's Crush (the new made for TV girl Band) was a band member of Day's of the New on the orginal record, before the lead singer broke it up.

Their popular songs may be written by song writers, but they do write there own material. (Some of KISS's songs were written by Michael Bolton!, and not all of Aerosmith's songs were thiers)

Back to the point, which is that these people are popular because of multi-million dollar marketing campaigns, but they still have to have large amounts of talent.

Napster really doesn't work anymore because of the lawsuits by Metallica and the music industry. (those idiots already have enough money) I have now since abondoned Napster and have turned to Morpheus to burn my own illegal CD's.

Ok, Apache by The Sugar Hill Gang has to be the most played out song at the J&J Mid Atlantic Regional. On thursday alone, i counted them playing that song 7 times, got annoying after awhile, but now i have that song stuck in my head, needless to say, i had to download it and play it aleast 3 times a day, lol, go figure.

Anyway, there is a techno song they played at a few of these regionals, manly Silicon Valley and Nationals, and i can't seem to figure out the name of it, and it's not sandstorm. It bearly has any words if any at all in it, but here's the beat in type:
(real fast) da da da da da da da da da da, (then) ba ba ba ba ba ba ba buh ba ba ba buh ba ba ba buh ba ba ba ba ba, and then so on, It's like real hard to describe it, but that's the best i can do. I go crazy if i hear a techno song somewhere and can't figure out the name of it.

Then there's a song that will always make me remember a specific moment during robotics (Def Leppard - Pour some sugar) that happend at Rutgers. It was the final matches last year and my team was in it, after the last match, it came to a tie, While we were waiting to find out who won, that song came on and after a few min, they announced our alliance as the winners. To this day when i hear that song, i remember that tense 10min of waiting of who won that match, and our alliance winning.

Ok I have to reply to this,


Blue- Eiffel 65
Mr Roboto and Too Much Time on my Hands by STYX

Hint for the DJ: Don't play 30 seconds of a song and then go to the next one, apparently people do not like that! (who knew?)
:confused:

i just have to say, you cant go wrong with "Magic Carpet Ride" by Steppenwolf

:cool:

You have to get some good bass in there to wake up the crowd... check out "Theme From Wide Angle" by Hybrid and/or "Tao of the Machine" by BT. Good stuff for the middle of match number eleventyfive when everyone's starting to get a little burned out.

Oh yeah, also check "Stomp to my Beat" by JS-16. People may start dancing for some reason when you play this song. I don't know why. ;)
