Somehow I think classic rock and prog rock are popular....I wonder why. I'm more of a metal person myself. Death metal, black metal, prog metal, the works.

Its all good, if its good. Ya know?

Great songwriters are not limited to one form of music, so I listen to a lot of stuff, if its good.

Wasteland is my favorite though. ;)

Duke (not Gary) Ellington said, "All music that sounds good, is good."

"All music that sounds good, is good."


However, most people have their preferences.

I think everyone has their preferences. But, that is beside the point.

I mostly listen to rap, but im slowly listneing to more classic rock, and everybody if you have never heard of The Darkness buy their cd, they are amazing they sound kinda like AC-DC, they're from the UK and won 4 out of the 5 brit awards they were nominated for, Black Shuck and Get your hands off of my women are amazing their whole cd is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

i listen to mostly rock and metal with a few exceptions. my favorite groups are tool, RATM, zeppelin, deftones and primus, and about 5 others.

My favorite "psyching-up" music for the mornings of tournaments is;
WU-TANG CLAN

Rap (not the new trash except outcast and the old gangster type stuff that pisses the white people off) and Rock (Beatles, Rolling Stones, Zep, 90's "alt" roc, Tool, Deftones, NIN, Radiohead, and Rage).

I listen to some Rap and Hip Hop

That's right,
That REAL thug S hit.

Oh, and as for bands that I listen to, these are some of my favorites:

Death
Lykathea Aflame
Dream Theater
Opeth
Immortal
Agalloch
Psycroptic

JAY Z! Black Album!!!!!!!!! It is tha shizzle! :D

Mainly Rap. A little country. With satellite radio in my vehicles, I'm really spoiled. I like being able to listen to my music uncensored.

Radiohead...radiohead...and more radiohead. Simply the best baby. :D

Have you heard the Grey album?
And DJ took the lyrics from the Black album and put it with the music from the Beetles White Album.
Hot2Def

The Grey Album has been all over the news. They said that on Tuesday, there were over 100,000 copies downloaded. Mark Southard sent me a link to it last week and I deleted it. It might make for some good driving music. I'm not a big Jay Z fan but I'll give it a listen. Someone send me a link.

You should get Reasonable Doubt (1st run).
It may change your mind about the Jigga Man.

I have warmed to Young Ho over the years. I liked 99 Problems and some of his collabo's with Pharell. It wouldn't hurt my feelings if he and Beyonce moved to an island and raised kids. That way, we might get to see more of Kelly. She's 10x hotter than B.

Check out Jin if you get a chance. He's got some good music coming out. Go back a few years to Petey Pablo, Diary of a Sinner for some good NC rap. He's from around the way.

Yeah Petey's my boy. Snow's Hill.
Have you heard the new Petey?

Jin's hot. You always have to watch The Double R.

don't forget my tickets go on sale at 10 am tomorrow 28th for:

Jun 25 Boston, MA

Jul 3 Columbus, OH

Jul 10 Bristow, VA

Jul 14 Burgettstown, PA

Jul 17 Minneapolis, MN

How far is Fairfax Station form Bristow?

Britney will be staying at my house the weekend of Duck Golf. Come over if you want to see a real show.

Wow! I can't believe all the rap lovers. I like a little bit of all kinds of music but mainly listen to hard rock. Some of my favorites are Korn,Audioslave,Pantera,Tool,Disturbed,Godsmack,Li nkin Park,Metallica,Rage Against the Machine etc.....and classics like the Red Hot Chili Peppers, AC/DC,Van Halen,Jethro Tull,Joe Walsh,Ozzy etc....etc....
I like a little bit of rap but not very much. I like it when it is mixed with hard crunching guitar licks like "No Sleep 'Til Brooklyn" from the Beastie Boys or "Bah Wah Ta Bah" from Kid Rock.
On the other hand when chilling out I really like the other extreme like Norah Jones & Enya. :)

Actually, I listen mostly to classical music. "Ride of the Valkyries" is pretty appropriate disc golf music!

Thanks, you now have me singing "kill the wabbit" and I can't stop. ;) I've been told that if I sing the Gilligan's Island theme song, it will go away, but I'd rather kill the wabbit.

Duke (not Gary) Ellington said, "All music that sounds good, is good."



Actually, the 'famous' Ellington quote was "There are only two kinds of music; good and bad." :cool:

I've been told that if I sing the Gilligan's Island theme song, it will go away



or whistle the Andy Griffith Theme.

I know I'm going to get some flak, but here goes, in no particular order:

Vince Guaraldi (when I'm feeling blue, it usually picks me up)

Jean-Michel Jarre (great synth music to mellow out to - used to play in background when I was studying in college)

Gregorian chants (yes, really. I only have one LP, and I can't sing with it because I don't know Latin. I gotta be in a particular mood to play it, though)

Devo (great for first thing in the morning to get your motor runnin', especially "Uncontrollable Urge")

That's enuf fodder for now...

Sorry, I forgot 3;

BeeGees
ABBA
The Village People

You can't tell that I'm stuck in the late 70's-early 80's, can ya? :o

ABBA, of course.

2 WORDS <font color="red"> </font> THE DARKNESS

Keith, the new layout is treating me just fine. I've only been down to NWTP twice in about 8 months or so though, and those were earlier this week. As I posted in another thread, I can't play much because of a herniated disc in my lower back. I did shoot a 56 though, so it's good to know I've still got it.


Chris, if you find a working link to The Grey Album, I'd appreciate it if you'd sent it to me via email. I can't find it on the p2p program I use, and I'm not about to go virus happy with Kazaa.

When I go play by myself...I have a mini disc (you heard me, mini disc, love the things!!) that puts me in the right frame of mind...it contains The Postal Service - Give Up, Matthew Good Band - The Audio Of Being, and The All-American Rejects disc...

I will listen to most anything xcept "country" even though most "country" in the last 5-10 years is nothing but a "RIPOFF" of "ROC & ROLL" not to get off on a RANT.
Lately while getting ready to play DISC,I have been listening to Early INCUBUS, ZAPPA, SATRIANI, Eric Johnson, STEVIE RAY.
While playing though i try to keep kid'Z song's running in my head from show's that my 4.5 year old son watches everthing from Blue's Clue's to Dora the Explorer & Winnie the POOH Great stuff to keep your "FOCUS" while playing DISC.

Whoop'Z maybe i've said to much. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif "LOL"

I like all types of music, it all depends on what mood I'm in or what mood I want to be in. I like Alternative Rock, Blues, Hip Hop, and Country.

I'm a big blues fan and also a metalhead. SRV, Son Seals, Chris Duarte, Indigenous, etc... Godsmack, Metallica, Dream Theater, Rush, Rammstein, etc...
My girlfriend has turned me on to some chanting stuff...Deva Premal, Krishna Das...

SRV, Son Seals, Chris Duarte, Indigenous, etc... Godsmack, (...) Rush, Rammstein, etc...


*coughcoughwhere'sthemetalcoughcough*

:D Young man, you were an egg when I graduated high school in '81! My roots are deep! :D
All of my groups you have quoted can flat out rip it!!

I'm just messing with you. Dream Theater is excellent. As were most of the others, just not metal.

Music MRVs...uh, I mean Rocs! /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif :D

If you want to try some weird stuff, listen to 'Ten Masked Men'. They do death metal covers of pop music. One of my favorites is 'Livin La Vida Loca'.

In the same vein, kind of, is Apocalyptica (sp?), 4 Finnish master celloists doing Metallica selections...one for each instrument/vocals. Very entertaining/talented.

Wagner's "Flight of the Valkyries"

Too bad their talent is wasted on Metallica. :D What I'd really like to hear is them covering something like 'A Change Of Seasons' by Dream Theater or 'Black Rose Immortal' by Opeth. That would be awesome.

Just Checked the CD CASE,
SRV, PLANT&PAGE, STYX G.HT'Z, MEGADEATH, V.H. II, QUEENZRYCHE, Y&T G.HT'Z, BLUE'Z TRVLR, DEF LEPPARD, DROWNING POOL, SOUL ASYLUM, THE WALL, STEELY DAN G.HT'Z, RUSH CHRONICLE'Z, METTALLICA M.O.PUPPET'Z, BEATLE'Z 1, MOTLEY CRUE'Z G.HT'Z, AC/DC IF U WANT BLOOD U GOT IT.

What....no reggae, bluegrass, jazz fans out there? What about funk, Herbie Hancock is the man! Anyone listen to music while playing?

i listen to marley since its possibly the best music ever for a certain time of day. :D

can't seem to get Lamb of God outta my cd player... Hatebreed, Killswitch Engage, From Autumn to Ashes.... heavy and fast.... the whole Jason vs Freddy soundtrack is pretty jammin' also.

I listen to anything thats gonna get me pumped up and ready to huck some plastic, I tend to listen to alot of hip hop though, that usually get s the blood flowin. :cool:

But, then again a lil rok n' roll can getcha pumped too. :D

*resists urge to say "haha, you like metalcore"*

KSE isn't that bad. Pretty entertaining actually.

K-Mart suxcks...
I'm an excellent driver!

Mr. Bungle!!!! Pretty much anything with Mike Patton singing. Faith No More (anything but "Epic"), Fantomas....
Old school Iron Maiden (Killers).
Anybody listen to Flotsam & Jetsam? Man, that's old school metal from my day. I played in band that got to open for Flotsam, and I haven't been the same since. Opened for Pantera,too...Cowboys from hell tour. Phil Anselmo can rip it up.
I dig jazz too. Mostly like Coltrane, Davis. :cool:

anybody here ever listen to Superjoint Ritual? its Phil from Pantera's old band he's been with for several years. If you like pantera you'll really like SJR. :D

I listen to an mp3 player when I always play disc golf... I normally Listen to Hip Hop and R&B, But on my player I have Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, AC/DC and many others. It holds 30 songs so I cannot name them all. I find this music to get me going when I play disc golf. Also helps when I do not play with it because then distractions that may occur do not bother me.. :)

I listen to almost anything, mainly Rock and some Rap, but I also enjoy Country and Honky Tonk.

Does Anybody Listen to THE DARKENSS they are amazing listen to them now now now

Enough about the **** darkness!

woxy.com- 97X Bam! The future of rock'n'roll.


yeah I can dig that! ... and this http://www.wtmd.org/ and http://www.wrnr.com/

The Darkness is a band that the UK didn't want so they got sent over here to suck in gullible Americans...and they succeeded.

For all you old timers, check out Jelly Pudding on Sunday night 6:00-9:30 EST. www.wofx.com (http://www.wofx.com) -Old rock-n-roll from the underground days of the late '60s and early '70s. Man, we still got some good radio here in Cincy! Too bad we're losing 97X in May. Internet only after that. Bam!

I finally listened to the Grey Album. I found it to be a nice trick to get me to listen to a whole Jay Z cd. It wasn't bad since there were some songs that I liked.

GODSMACK, PANTERA, METALLICA, SLAYER

Limp Bizkit, Nickelback, Staind, Linkin Park, so many many more.......

After spending about an hour in the car last night with Greg, Warren, Dickey, Butch and Jaimoe, I thought it was worth pointing out that Stormy Monday may very well be the best blues song ever written and that the Allmans rendition(s), (pick one, although the live bootleg with Zakk Wylde filling in for Dickey is my fave), is one of the most awesome things to ever come outta my speakers.

I know that's old school and redundant, but worth mentioning for all you youngsters out there.

The Cure, Radiohead, and other obscure British bands.

Hey Kenny don't you mean oldies.

hey matt, check it http://www.bonnaroo.com/2003/trailer03/index.htm go down towards the bottom of the page and there should be a live video of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robot. everyone should go to BONNAROO!!!! :D

Credence clearwater revival, ZZ Top, Warren Zevon, Bob Seger, Van Morrison, CCSN&Y, Lenny Kravitz, Don Henley, The Police. Mostly classic roc and occasional oldies.

Although I do enjoy watchin BET just to watch the sistas "back that thing up" and "shake it fast".

Radiohead puts a cd out every year and the Cure have one coming out this year, Youngpup.
X-TerraMatt, I'll give it a listen. They played with the Chile Peppers, but I didn't go...doh! PS: I have a disc golf friend named Matt that has a red XTerra. His license plate is X FACTOR. COOL!

What? I am the only country fan that plays DG,interesting.Its hard to beat Kenney Chesney if you ask me.Oh yeah I cant leave out Bob Dylan, you pick the album there all good.

I like all types of music by talented musicians. The type of music I listen to at any moment mostly depends on my mood. However, Prince can always put me in a sexy, self-confident mood. We are flying to Ft Lauderdale and missing the Paul Giles Tournament to go to the concert there because the best tickets in Dallas were sold out by the time I got home from the Lewisville T10 last Saturday.
When I'm having a bad day at work, nothing is better than John Lennon.
On a good day at work, I prefer progressive rock.
If I have a bad headache nothing is better than Mozart.
B B King is great for a rainy day.
Really hard metal is good for while cleaning the house. Dedset comes to mind.
Jazz is great while studying or reading.

,THE FASTER THE BETTER.


Check out the album 'Informis Infinitas Inhumanitas' by Origin. There's not a lot of metal played faster than that.

Quote:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Duke (not Gary) Ellington said, "All music that sounds good, is good."


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Actually, the 'famous' Ellington quote was "There are only two kinds of music; good and bad."



Hmmm, I seem to recall from Burns' JAZZ series that [second] quote was from Satchmo, not the Duke...if not those words, he certainly expressed the idea prior to Mr. Ellington...speaking of the Duke, his performance at the 1959 Newport Jazz Festival is called by some "the greatest concert ever," and after having listened to "At Newport," I don't personally agree, but it's vital, 5-star stuff. Maximum elegance, AND it swings!!!

p.s. anybody interested in trading Jazz, Blues, or Psychedelic music would be hard-pressed to find a better/more ready-able-and-willing partner than m'self. Heck, I GIVE 'em away most of the time!!!

I've been enthralled with music ever since I saw the Beatles live on the Ed Sullivan show [Feb.'64], and 'music lover' is right behind 'artiste' [and ahead of athlete/disc golfer] as a signpost of self-identity...and I consider it a nigh-duty to help turn others on to what pops my weasel. In that vein, here are some of my current picks, which though not exactly new, might be new to you:

Blues: 'Down on Stovall's Plantation' by Muddy Waters; A.K.A. "The Complete Plantation Recordings 1941-1942�. If you like the Blues, and I mean THE Blues, A.K.A. Delta Blues, this one is indispensable. It was recorded before Mr. McKinley Morganfield [Muddy] drifted up the Miss� sip to Chicago, and is chunkified a bit by the interview interludes, but it sounds great for a 40's recording...much cleaner than the Johnson or Patton stuff, and just as pure.

Jazz: If you haven't heard the name "Ornette Coleman" by now, you are w-a-a-a-a-y overdue to hear this cat...he's an obvious genius on the sax, operative word being obvious. Johnny Griffin was faster, and 'Trane was more spirtitual, but Ornette can bop just as hard as Bird, and is every bit as inventive...and much more visionary. So if you're just thinking of dabbling in Jazz, go ahead and pick up a copy of Miles Davis' "Kind of Blue" first [no way to go wrong with that], then pick up anything by Coleman from the 50's or 60's [esp. '59-to-'61], except perhaps "Free Jazz"...that might be too intimidating, unless you're already keen on 'Trane's aharmonic stuff. My recommendation: "Change of the Century," where he's joined by cornetist Don Cherry, bassist Charlie Haden, and drummer Billy Higgins...the most formidable quartet ever? Gets my vote�I hardly ever agree with anything Rolling Stone magazine has to say, but here we concur: a 7, on a 5 scale rating.

Psychedelic: Psychedelia started in Los Angeles [not Francisco like most everybody connotes], but the FIRST psychedelic band from the City was NOT the Grateful Dead, Big Brother, or even the Airplane, but a little-known band called The Charlatans [note: NOT the Charlatans U.K. !!!], who due to mismanagement never had their work released until long after they had broken up. Don't think aimless, super-distorted acid rock--In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida this is not--; they actually played Western/Folk music...it was their approach to the songs which made their sound. It's not [very] distorted, or even tweaked, but so...unexpected. They have quite a few releases/repacks by now, but the most-complete is "The Amazing Charlatans.� Don't pick this up as an intro to Psychedelia, or even 60's music, but if you already like early Dead and/or J.A., you owe it to yourself to listen to the band which inspired those guys.

Tomorrow[?]: The best in recent music videos.

A B C === Anything But Country

BIG

Schweb, give it a try. I've seen more country concerts than any other type and redneck girls are a lot of fun.

TRUE THAT!!!!

"Rocky Butts Drive me NUTZ!!!!!"

Hey Schweb, does that outlook in NC make you a square peg? Is there any good 'roots' music on the radio?

...I'm putting further picks on hold.

"Gimme one with a beat I can dance to"

Mr. Bungle!!!! Pretty much anything with Mike Patton singing. Faith No More (anything but "Epic"), Fantomas....
Old school Iron Maiden (Killers).
Anybody listen to Flotsam & Jetsam? Man, that's old school metal from my day. I played in band that got to open for Flotsam, and I haven't been the same since. Opened for Pantera,too...Cowboys from hell tour. Phil Anselmo can rip it up.
I dig jazz too. Mostly like Coltrane, Davis. :cool:



What! :eek:Faith No More's (EPIC) is one of my all time favorites.

Probably tired of that being the only Faith No More song ever played on the radio....

Mr Bungle is quite an excellent band. If you like Mike Patton's vocals, try out anything by these musicians:

Devin Townsend
Mikael Akerfeldt
Garm
Dan Swano

All four of them are fantastic at a wide variety of styles.

How about the new Crystal Method: Legion of Boom? Anybody heard this CD?

i did not know they had some new material out i'll definately have to check that out. they're the only "electronic" (or whatever its called) style of music that i listen to.

Shpongle
Juno Reactor
Armin Van Buuren
Aphex Twin

There's some good electronica.

i cant believe someone said shpongle! my band used this as intro/set break music all the time. one of my favorite bands (disco biscuits...discobiscuits.com) is heavily influenced by shpongle.

"are you shpongled" is one of my favorite albums of all time.

my favorite bands/composers/artists:

disco biscuits
phish
dream theater
rush

primus
king's x
philip glass
hank williams, sr.
merle haggard
pink floyd
radiohead
john coltrane
beethoven
stravinsky
bach
mozart
grieg
schubert
bela fleck & flecktones
tori amos

dream theater


Good choice.

*puts on recommendation hat*

Andromeda
Spastic Ink
Gordian Knot
Spock's Beard
Nightingale
Opeth

That's a very eclectic roster, Brian; to the point it's a tad surprising to NOT see Zappa listed. With only one Jazz artist ['Trane], I'm guessing you're not into bop, but towards the 'cool' spectrum?

A couple of my favorite's are Beck, Beastie Boys, and John Lee Hooker. No music when the Jim Rome show is on, his sports radio show is the funniest thing around. War Clones!

no radio for me, ever! i can't stand listening to 90 percent of what stations play. thats just me though

im all about 311, Sublime, Rage Against the Machine, Pantera, Marley, and anything else that gets the heart and soul jumppn..no boy bands or country...that shizzles for the bizzles who are in schizzle my nizzles :D

XM baby all the way......theres always somethin on, havent listened to a cd in 3 months. XM 101 THE JOINT....thats the best station.

Um....no, XM 43 - XMU is the best station, Followed by Ethel, Fred and Lucy.

Hysell will start spouting Sirius channels now.

MS

100+ stations of coast to coast music. i am really diggin the instant traffic and weather as well. that is the best for travellin to tournaments. cant wait to take a road trip with the XM.

Try the Chemical Brothers if you like Chrystal Method.

i cant wait to take a road trip with Jen AND her Xm :D whats the station i like....Squizzel???

BackSpin on Sirius. HipHop Nation.

Does XM radio work at speeds in excess of 100mph?

christian rock :D

That's an oxymoron.

Like "light" rock. :confused:

My favorite band is Magpu from Denton, TX

:D

That's an oxymoron.



a combination of contradictory or incongruous words :D

Gangsta Rap.(Mainly 2pac) Also some rock. Huge fan of Metallica and Linkin Park.

Pearl Jam is my all time favorite. But i toss the jam bands (Phish and Widespread Panic especially) or hardcore rap (Three Six mafia) into my cd player as just as often. A great new CD is N.E.R.D "Fly or Die". It blends hip hop and rock very well i think most anyone could like it.

Man, after all my shameless promotion, 97x is signing off for good at midnight tonight! :( Don't know if any of you ever checked it out. It's not what I'd call my favorite music, but their independence is what attracted me (my little guilty pleasure). They tell you about the bands, the DJs know what they're talking about, and they featured local bands (a BIG plus, IMHO). They reminded me of the underground nature of some of the first FM stations in the late '60's (I'm dating myself, here). Now, even the webcast is signing off.... Some corporation bought it, and we all know what kind of playlists to expect from corporate radio.
Has anyone tried XM radio yet? I bought it two weeks ago, and there are three stations I really dig- Squizz, Ethyl, and Deep Tracks. Also like the idea of listening to radio on those disc golf road trips! Kinda reminds me of early FM. We'll see.
Oh, well, gotta go, gotta listen- to the last night of broadcasting from one of the last great indy stations in the world.

Here's some of the Hot new bands on XMU...

Stellastarr*
The Flaming Lips
Franz Ferdinand
Lamb
Dizzy Rascal
The Weakerthans
Los Halos
Modest Mouse
The Libertines
The Unicorns
The Long Winters
The Decemberists

Don't worry about all the old stuff...it'll always be there.

Only one thing I wish XM would do: supply band and album information. I wouldn't mind a DJ just telling me pertinent info, but DJ's always think they're more important than the music. I guess that's why I got it, just music.
Our little oasis of indie music officially died last night at midnight. 97x is no more. It wasn't necessarily my favorite music, just a cool alternative to the same ol' same ol' on FM. I can find the same tunes on XM at XMU, Ethyl, and Unsigned. The station that replaced it sounds just like two other stations here in town :mad:Good thing for XM. I like deep tracks, too. They play older rock artists' stuff old and new. Kinda like trippin' back in time... :cool:

The Flaming Lips are not new.

They for sure are not a hot new band. :D

METAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK..So I don't know as much as Hysell...so what!?

I'm grateful for all the suggestions of new bands, as I've pretty much ignored the radio [except Jazz stations, and that's mostly older stuff] since 1981; I could listen to Jazz or 60's rock [or new Rock by guys from the 60's ][mostly by guys IN their 60's!!!] for the rest of my days, but good music is just that, so thanks again...

...that being said, back to the 60's: Has anybody seen [or even heard of] the latest DVD by Soft Machine?!? I've insinuated [either here, or in another music thread] that the Psychedelic movement started in Los Angeles; I may have to eat my words, as I just found out these cats [led by Daevid (sic) Allen, who's also had a solo career] hail back to 1964! [well, maybe it started independently in more than one place...like me coming up with the term "Headrick" for a shot thwarted by the 'lid'...there's a similar theory about the beginning of Homo Sapiens...].

Anyways, on this disc Soft Machine is joined by Arthur Brown [remember "Fire" by The Crazy World of Arthur Brown? same guy...] as MC, AND David Gilmore. Now, I was never a huge Floyd fan, and I prefer their work with Syd Barrett, anyways, but I'm going to have to re-evaluate by opinion on the status of Mr. Gilmore in the pantheon of Rock guitar mavens...no, he doesn't 'shred'; he doesn't 'rip' or 'wail', but the guy's playing [here] is absolutely, positively...SICK!!!

Check this one out if you get the chance...it doesn't have quite the psychedelic post-production of the latest Electric Prunes' gig, but some of it is disturbingly surreal. Just short of a 'Spinal Tap' rating, due to [a tad of] self-indulgent hokiness by Mr. Allen.

Did I mention David Gilmore sits-in? A must have for Floydophiles...

Durf! Make that Gilmour...David Gilmour, of Pink Floyd fame...no way to catch that via 'spellcheck', numb sain?

WEEN

Sweet I got my WEEN tickets today!!!!!! Should be one wild show!

I've been stuck on a couple of bands recently,
Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies (punk covers)
the Pouges (irish)
Dan Bern (comical classic/folk)
and of course, Snoop!

alternative

alternative to what?

:D

funk brothers :D

Am I the only golfer listening to dance music? Progressive DJ mixing...House, Progressive, DnB?

Sasha, Carl Cox, DJ Dan, DJ Icey, Donald Glaude, Chris Fortier, Taylor, Digweed, Vicious Vic, Bassbin Twins, Tenaglia...

anyone?

dam n ravers...

I do kinda see a slight compatability with the metal and Dance/Trance counter culter discin heads!!!!!!! :) We are the few but proud....

We are disc golfers..... lol :D

Not a very natural sport is it? :P

XM
80, 80, 82....sweet dance and techno for road tripppin.
XM101 THE JOINT is the shiot

Lately?
Rap
But, that could change. Dont you hate it when you ask someone what kind of music they listen to, and they say "everything". I have found a follow up question when someone answers "everything".
I say "Well, what is in your CD player at home and in your car right now?"
Right now I got a N.E.R.D. CD in my truck and an old Eric B. and Rakim CD in my house stereo.
Holla atcha Boy!

I listen to everything...except what come out of Nashville.

In changer: Johnny "Catnip' Griffin, The Little Giant [1959][Jazz]; Love Forever Changes [1967][classic pop/rock]; The Soft Boys [Robin Hitchcock's group] Underwater Moonlight [1977][hard-edged new wave/pop rock, ; U.K. Charlatans Melting Pot [1998][alternative]; The Wild Tchoupitoulas [mid-70's][american roots music: hard-core N'walins funk][first incarnation of the Neville Brothers][Produced by Allen Toussaint][Backup by The Meters]...
...in the tray, right now: Giving the new re-package of Moby Grape a Spin [kick-[*****] Western-tinged {non-blues based} Rock 'n' Roll]...released this Groundhog Day; sounds rougher, with studio chatter, and more echo than previous mixes [2 discs; a best-of]...this may not win over the casual listener, but it's invaluable to those of us who already consider their first album one of the tops in the 60's.

"The Polyharmonic Spree"

Wild. I've seen but one song, but what a doozy! Imagine li'l Tommy Walker [yes, that Tommy] opening holiday camp not with Uncle Earnie, but rather with a juxtaposition of hari krishnas, the Broadway cast of "Hair," and the real, not muzak Who..."Poly..." even takes place in a tent. Theatrical, and stirring, it is...to be seen next loola yadda.

In my truck is Hoobastank, John Mayer, Incubus, and 3 variety cds with anything from cake to Trapt.

In my home CD player is Josh Groban, They might be giants, and Paul Simon.

Completly random I know, but I am one of those people that says I love everything. There are even a few from Nashville that I dig. I am always open to new genres as well. Any suggestions on good stuff that is out of the ordinary pop on the radio scene?? Stuff not so common but just as great. :D

Any suggestions on good stuff that is out of the ordinary pop on the radio scene??



Good Luck!!!

Actually, Saturdays on the Jazz station here [KJAZ, ni KLON, the self-described top Jazz station, period] they play something called 'Soul Jazz' after the Blues program. This idiom has elements of R&B, Rock, Jazz, and [duh] Soul music...it's fun trying to 'name' the influences.
The advise being: Not to try and find this station, but to see if the one[s] there have 'specialty' shows during the week, highlighting 'different' stuff. Those listings are often in that area's Sunday paper.

dream theater


Good choice.

*puts on recommendation hat*

Andromeda
Spastic Ink
Gordian Knot
Spock's Beard
Nightingale
Opeth



Finally, someone who has heard of Dream Theater and Spocks Beard!! Just saw DT on the "Train of Thought" tour. Paid $250 for the "Platinum" experience. It was great. For $250 you got to sit in the front row, you get a special t-shirt, a VIP laminate that allows you access to backstage. After the show you get to meet the band and they hand you a signed picture of the band. We stood around talking music with the band for 45 min., and had them sign other things as well. Totally great experience.

Best music you could ever listen to (not in any order)

Belle and Sebastian
Ben Harper
Modest Mouse
Nirvana
Dinosaur Jr. (aka Jay Mascis + the Fog)
Flogging Molly
Sublime
Helmet
Panterra
Pedro the Lion
His Infernal Majesty
Days of the New
Cat Stevens
REM
Del the Funkee Homosapian (Deltron 3030)
Camp Kill Yourself
The Strokes
Tool
U2
Weezer
The Rentals
The White Stripes
AC/DC
Wu Tang Clan
RAGE
Mos Def
The Misfits
Outkast


Take my word for it...

I haven't heard of some of those. The only one that I am familiar with that I don't like too much is Tool. I know that may upset some of you because I have noticed a lot of disc golfers that like Tool. I can listen to them if necessary, but it is not something that I would throw in to enjoy on purpose. I do like the song Schizm. That is about it. The video was interesting to say the least. Most of their videos are. You have an interesting list of artists as well. A vast array of music genres. I will have to purchase some of the ones I am not familiar with. Thank you for your suggestions. :D

I listen to stuff that a lot of you haven't heard...

If you have heard of Five Iron Frenzy or OC Supertones, then you are a rarity.

Del the Funkee Homosapian (Deltron 3030)



Perhaps the most chill album ever. I can listen to del day in and day out, but Deltron 3030 is the best afterparty experience of my life besides a woman. If you like Del, check out Souls of Mischief.
If you like industrial metal, go to www.thisisq.com (http://www.thisisq.com) and check out a Mass band called Q. They rock and they're comin' up strong.
Billie Holiday still rules over soul and blues, but you can't beat Marley for dancin' and cryin at the same time.
Hendrix did it right, like no other,
And Zappa tells it all.
Pele Juju is an all woman band that shows us another side of music.
Ali Farka Toure (sp?) brings the electric guitar to a new level.
Incubus has my ear,
STP
Black Label Society
the guy on the corner with his guitar case open
live music
drum circles
movie soundtracks
Bjork
The Beatles
Throbbing Gristle
etc. etc.

Evidently this is the correct spelling; I got plenty of hits on my filesharing...he [she?] did an album with Ry Cooder called Talking Timbuktu ...in fact, everything I've seen so far with A.F.T. is a compilation with someone else, mostly in the African/World theme...it might be a bit harder to discern an opinion on A.F.T. as an artist in group efforts, but I like what I hear so far!

I listen to a good amount of hardcore.

Lately, I've been listening to Atreyu, Give up the Ghost, Grade, Waterdown, The Hurt Process, and Strife. At least that's what in my current winamp playlist.

A little rap, some hard rock, some rock, some metal.

Blind Joe Death
by John Fahey...AKA John Fahey vol. 1 Blind Joe Death...AKA The Legend of Blind Joe Death...AKA The Transfiguration of Blind Joe Death. AKA, the work Fahey recorded in 1959, then re-recorded, and re-re-recorded in the sixties...simply amazing, this man's abilities on the acoustic guitar...at times he seems to be in control of the squeeks/buzzes, even, in the entire statement of his compositions. I can't believe I heard it but recently.

Songs from 1967 I've heard sound 'better', cleaner at least, than the 1963 versions, but those earlier ones just have a "vibe" about them...a feeling that something monumental, essential, life-changing, even, is happening, but done with such 'aw, schucks' aplomb...highest possible rating.

Oh yeah, it would get thrown in the 'Folkie' pile, if one had to discriminate.

Very interesting list, Krevo. I'd be willing to bet that is the first time Cat Tevens and Tool have ever been on the same...anything. :)

Remind me to tell you an interesting Pantera story next time I see you. :)

Sonny Rollins is in the cd player right now.

If you don't know who that is, don't ask. /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Send me a PM if you know who that is. I am curious to know how many disc golfers listen to real music. ;)

Dramarama is in right now. They are very irritating in that they so often come so close to having a great song, only to bail out yet again in favor of a cheap "cute" turn of a phrase. Oh well, I still like the sound.

Hey we should trade interesting Pantera stories, I have two that both involve me sneaking backstage /msgboard/images/graemlins/smirk.gif...as far as music, I too strongly dis-like anything outta Nashville for the past 2 or 3 decades. A list would go like this:

Hank III
Down
Mr Bungle
Incubus
Queens of the Stone Age
Ween
Blind Melon
The Beatles
BLACK SABBATH!!
Johnny Cash
TOOL

In my car right now is "A Crow Left of the Murder"-Incubus
and at home it's lots of Moistboyz (Ween side project) and Foo Fighters.

Ummm, Johnny Cash was sorta "outta Nashville", wasn't he?

Bob Dylan, Pat Green, The Cure, Kenney Chesney, Allison Krause, Kid Roc, TOOL, NIN, Tripping Daisy, Slo Roosevelt, Brutal Juice, Tim Mcgraw, Willie Nelson, Haggard, Crystal Method, Beastie Boys, Jack Johnson, and Superjoint Ritual. Cant go wrong with any of these.

Ummm, Johnny Cash was sorta "outta Nashville", wasn't he?




Actually, the man in black started his career in the non-commercialized southern town of Memphis. While Patsy Cline wailed and Hank Sr. honkytonked in Nashville, the scene was far too common and bland in Nashville. Memphis was where the wild ones spawned from...

Fu Manchu and Clutch are two of the greatest bands currently making music right now.


If you like being at a show, and seeing everybody in the crowd bobbin their head to the drum and guitar in sync, you need to check these bands out. They really exemplify what rock n roll should sound like nowadays.

Five Iron and the Supertones?

Two christian punk/ska bands. DUH. I'm past the punk/ska skacore call it whatchoo want hoohaa.

Punk rock I currently prefer:

NOFX, Propagandhi, Minor Threat, Misfits, No Use for a Name, Operation Ivy, 7 seconds, Voodoo Glow Skulls, The Queers, Screeching Weasel, The Ramones, Offspring (up to Smash), Bad Religion, the list could go on forever. I'm music lover, good bad, crass, brash, soft, peaceful, whatever...


Actually, my favorite punk rock band would have to be Crass.

What no Bucketheads or Unforgiven? I prefer to sit in my car and listen these days. Too much crowd surfing and moshing in my teen years. Last concert I attended was Superjoint a few months back, I was knocked out by a moniter on the stage that I landed on head first OUCH.

Also note I said "outta Nashville in the past two or three decades" not "anything out of Nashville EVER!!", if I had said that, it would cut-out Cash, Hank Sr., etc...In other words anything out of Nashville recently. I'm not even a big country fan, but what little country I do like has nothing to do with the bland, watered-down crap oozing out of Nashville these days. :D

You just dont like country, the 2 examples are really there OWN kind of sound. :DI hated country till my Fiance left, now it makes perfect sense(most of them).

Country is tha shizzle. Tim McGraw is tha man. Kenny Chesney, Montgomery Gentry, Linkin Park, Nickelback, Evanescence, Twista, Petey Pab, Luda... I like it all.

8ball and MJG, Three Six Mafia, and Pink Floyd!

Did anybody say CLUTCH yet? Their new CD, Blast Tyrant is kick ***!

i think i may have mentioned clutch, that new album is really good they seem to have yet again broadend their sound.

Evidently this is the correct spelling; I got plenty of hits on my filesharing...he [she?] did an album with Ry Cooder called Talking Timbuktu ...in fact, everything I've seen so far with A.F.T. is a compilation with someone else, mostly in the African/World theme...it might be a bit harder to discern an opinion on A.F.T. as an artist in group efforts, but I like what I hear so far!


Yeah, Ry Cooder is responsible (i think) for bringing Ali Farka Toure's sound to the west. I got to see him at womad one year with a group of griots from West Africa and it was truly amazing. The reason that all the recordings are colaborations is probably because his true heritage and syle is live performance. I'm glad you got a hold of some of his work and hope you can catch him or another griot in person. :D

Some golfers like to relax before competition with some nice happy tunes. Now, I like nice happy tunes just as much as the next guy, but I need something to get the blood flowing before I play. A little Megadeth, Anthrax, Testament... give me the old school thrash metal. Of course, there's something to be said for Dream Theater on their heavier stuff. Need something to spark the adrenaline.

What are these terms for?

...still wondering...

In the changer, and still timely after 35+ years:

So Tough; Surf's Up; Pet Sounds by...[?]

...still an APB in effect for " womad " and " griots "...B those African, or 'Harry Potter'?!?

OK, which BB title was the givaway, and what do you think of their magnum opus' ranking in the latest Rolling Stone power-rating index?

And it's called [Let It Be Naked] because...[?]

No, although a 'founding member', Albin played bass in Big Brother [the "& The Holding Company" part was added later, much like "Of Invention" became added to The Mothers' moniker, due to legal grounding]. I'm looking for comments on "The Father of the Psychedelic Guitar". This group's famous singer sang a "Lovelight" duo with...[??]

Nirvana
Red Hot Chilli Peppers
Rage Against the Machine
Jazz
Bach

Who needs loust imposters...just stick to the best and the basics. :cool:

Dillinger Escape Plan
As the Sun Sets

I'm not into very many mainstream bands, I prefer grind core/experimental music, but love all kinds of music as long as its real music, not generic manufactured stuff.

lots of jazz (mmw, miles, coltrane, random stuff on KNTU.fm)
lots of classical (beethoven, bach, mozart, vivaldi, stravinsky)
lots of phish (last show ever this weekend after 21 years of touring)
lots of disco biscuits (improvised trance/fusion/goa/jungle)

wow Ned's and Sloan. I haven't even thought about those bands in forever. **** it, now I gotta go dig thru my CD's. Thanks alot Sherman. lol

Yikes, what's happening to my opinion of music lovers as an informed, opinionated demographic?!?

The questions to yesterday's trivia answer are, 'Who is Phil Spector', and 'Who cares'?!?

...perhaps, in failing to garner outside interest in this epic un-dertaking, it's best to just be content with my friend Dave's opine: "First you've got 'Naked' on this disc, and it's great; then you've got the original, and that's great, too."

Just great. 'Nuff said. Now, back to your headphones...

Partridge Family.

I think Danny was the best rock drummer of all time, and David Cassidy had the best stage presence in history.

Partridge Family.

I think Danny was the best rock drummer of all time, and David Cassidy had the best stage presence in history.

Now that is a funny j/k.

Yeah, it's too bad Zappa favoured Ainsley Dunbar in the early-'70's; li'l Danny drumming for the Mothers would have been a supergroup for the ages...

OK, different approach: In this years' Rolling Stone 'top 100 Rock albums' list, what was the top 'non-Beatle' entry?

...and which album was this a "response" to?!?

...and, how annoying was the �spelling error� in this post? :D

Rolling Stone? They probably said Pet Sounds by the Beach Boys. Don't ask me why everybody @ Rolling Stone says it was a great album they must be deaf or just stupid.

What's the worst rock magazine of all time, obviouly Rolling Stone

Ill jam ou to just about everything, some punk rock, hip-hop, country and all the Hippie tunes, i need to get one of those cooler/radio things for the course so i can jam out while i throw

wow Ned's and Sloan. I haven't even thought about those bands in forever. **** it, now I gotta go dig thru my CD's. Thanks alot Sherman. lol


Hey, no worries :cool: My problem is that I need to dig through some recent MNE journals and what not to seek out some new bands/music. I've been stagnant in the music field for far too long.

Right, and right...RS is the 'People' magazine of rock journalisim; but it's the one everybody's heard of; I use it more as a jumping-off point, than a point of reference.

By the way, it was either Revolver #2 and Pet Sounds #3, or the other way around. Call me deaf and/or stupid, but I agree with the masses here...It's hard to describe what the BB's actually do, but when they do it right, it hits you hard, and it's magic...

...the second part of the answer to the trivia question would evidently be Rubber Soul ...I have to say 'evidently' because I'm going by the release dates provided by my mediaplayer Billboards from the 60's to reference], Pet Sounds was released before both Revolver, and that other Beatles album we cretins favour.

One more last tidbit, before I re-enter my tone-deaf 60's reverie: I just happened to be watching the Little League World series the other day...this is for kids 12 and under, remember. During the introductions, they made references to the players' favorite foods, movies, music, etc. Out of the 12+ members of one team which were being introduced, only two favorite bands were mentioned...can you quess the favorite bands of these 11-12-year-old boys [from either R.I. or N.H.]?!?

Beatles for one, Beach Boys for the other. True.

*sigh*

...although I find it disappointing, and a tad disturbing, that both Joe Rolling Stone Reader, AND the demographic of 11&12-year old boys are more eager to talk about these oldschool bands than my DG community, here's one I'm sure Morgan wouldn't lump into the Punky Meadows-Worshiper category: Lather, by Frank Zappa. The release date is 1996-9-24, but it's new to me. Also, there is an umlaut over the 'A', but I can't format suchly. I'm guessing it's more towards LAH-thur in pronunciation.

...anyways, I have but the most-highly recommended disc, #3, and I can say indubitably that:
1. Frank is one smokin' guitarist, and
2. Some of the stuff here is the hottest free jazz music I've heard in some time!

I don't have all the story, but it was conceived as an 8-sider back in the vinyl era...I have no real clue why it's release was delayed decades.

Can anybody embellish this thread?

Well I dont really care about that :p

But I did buy my 2 tickets (presale!) for the Beastie Boys at the Erwin center in Austin for October 22nd!
WHOO HOO!!! :D:cool::D

Eddie is dead!

How dare you? :D

Well, Frank Zappa is dead...he was one bad ***** on the six-string; everytime I hear something new [to me] by the man, I'm blown-away...I'm thinking he's one of the more underrated instrumentalists, period. Maybe his wacky, mercury-poisoned-persona obfuscates that?

Right now, I'm listening to the first disc of his 3-disc Lather [pronounced, "LEATH-er"].

...I've also got a 3-disc set called "Object Project" of Zappa music by [this is a guess] Mother alumni, but can't find it in the 'guide'. :confused:

slo,
you ever find any Reggie Wooten *****?

No; plenty of Victor, with/without Bela, and others, but goose eggs on Reggie...it has been a while since I checked, though.

...did you catch any of my John Fahey schtick? Best dang acoustic guitarist I'VE heard; better than Neil Young, Robert Johnson, and even Kottke, that last opine from to a very reliable source.

...so, what's with you and Schweb and the "Tt" thing?!?

uniTTy

Lately I've been listening to Muse, The Flaming Lips, Franz Ferdinand, The Killers, and Seether.

"you ever find any Reggie Wooten *****? "

you guys probably know this, but just in case...

reggie wooten == futureman (synthaxe drumatar player of flecktones)

Is that for real? Yes, I've seen them live; stood mere feet from Futureman; never forget the guy not just honking, but flat-out wailing on TWO saxes at once; but the inference was to Reggie on guitar...this dangling from the 'classic rock guitar solos' thread...bUMBLE sent me a review of a gig, so I'm sure about the Reggie Wooten + guitar part...are all these personae the same cat?!?

I'm not sure Reggie is futureman. When Victor has gone out on a solo tour in past years, Reggie has been playing guitar w/ him.

Country is tha shizzle. Tim McGraw is tha man. Kenny Chesney, Montgomery Gentry, Linkin Park, Nickelback, Evanescence, Twista, Petey Pab, Luda... I like it all.


OMG what a f'n redneck you are. Yaahoo, put a gun in your mouth. :mad:

What Beat Listens To (http://www.beattheindiedrum.com/musiccollection.html)

That's quite some list; I'm going to have to get past the "A's"!

Wow, I have heard of maybe 2-3% of that; almost totally new; there is a band called "!!!"?

...guessing we're the only ones listening to Acid Mother's Temple[?]...the friend who turned me on saw them live somewhere, L.A.-ish...Dylan was there, too, check'n'em out...WILD stuff!! I wouldn't recommned AMT to most people, but I'm not most people, so...how about a few/couple recommendations, of SIMILAR stuff, Beat?!?
...in the meantime, one not on your list, worth a listen: [the] Black Keys. Hendrixesque.

I would care to wager we are the only ones listening to AMT on this board. Indeed, they are amazing live. I have seen them here in Japan. It's a trip to watch the chick smoke 5 cigs at a time throughout the entire show while tinkering with inane instruments. They are definitely more of a live band than studio. Kinda hard to compare them to anyone else. Boredoms, maybe? Mono (also from Japan).

!!! is a funky rock-type outfit. Big fat beats, thumping bass. Dance music for hipsters, I guess.

I keep hearing about the Black Keys but haven't gotten around to checking them out. One of these days. Too much music, so little time.

Just got Audioslave's self-titled cd: AWESOME!!

...just noticed you're posting from Nippon...do they 'check' your discs for weight, there?

...any word on this "12-Girl Band"? Just hype, phenomena, what?

...any RECOMMENDATIONS on what's hot, but flying under the radar?!?

Tom Waits, blues, and Tom Waits. :cool:

Skid Row self titled.

I was laughing thinking about them playing "Youth Gone Wild" today whilst twirling thier old-man canes and coughing trying to sing "wild". :)

...not a band I follow, but their apperance on SNL [wow, how long ago was THAT?!?] was easily one of the most explosive in the history of that storied gig.

beat, where B U?!? I need some answers! :p

Just got Modest Mouse. well worth the 9.99 at Best Buy.

If you like guitar driven rock/blues rock:
Eric Sardinas - Johnny Winter kinda deja vu all over again
Gov't Mule - Warren Haynes and friends
Indigenous - Mato Nanji is Hendrix/Santana/Vaughan rolled
into one and a hell of a voice as well
Walter Trout - another example of so much music, so little
time
Eddie Hinton - 70's soul, he flamed and went

Thanks riverdog; thatwhatimlookinfor!

...Is Leslie West [Mountain; "Mississippi Queen"] one of Warren Haynes' friends? I was under the impression Govt. Mule was Leslie's group. :confused:

If you even know who Leslie West/Mountain is you must be a greybeard. Around here that's a good thing. Since the Mule's forte is a jam format it's entirely possible that Leslie West has played with them at some point, in fact a lot of Warren's live recordings become a who's who of session players, guitarists (especially bass), bluesmen, and on and on......ala "The Dead". He's a busy boy - front man for Gov't Mule, lead for "The Allman Brothers", lead for "The Dead", as well as an increasing amount of solo stuff. No idea how he gets it all done. But, no, Mule is all Warren Haynes, Matt Abts and various others. PM me if you want/need details. Jamie

If you even know who Leslie West/Mountain is you must be a greybeard.

Quite literally true; I date back to seeing the Beatles on Ed Sullivan, live.

I just saw this post, Jamie; NOW I recall who Warren Haynes is! ...I'll probably take you up on that offer, but gotta go, etc.! Thanks!

beat?!?

...just noticed you're posting from Nippon...do they 'check' your discs for weight, there?

Sorry, man. I couldn't find where this thread was located. Always forget there's a misc. forum way below all the clubs.

Anywho, I know nothing about this 12-Girl Band. Perhaps you could fill me in on this one.

As for recommendations. Not sure what exactly you like. I like a wide variety of stuff but mostly into (but not exclusive to) classic power-pop, alt.country/Americana/Roots, 60's psyche/garage and anything politically-oriented right now. Perhaps some mix-swapping is due here. I'm always for that.

They do not check my discs here in Nippon as my home course is on a military base. I don't fall under JP rules in that regard (and thankfully so). I'm a good ways from another course. Tried driving to a course up a bit north that was listed in the PDGA directory but it's no longer there (and no longer in the directory). Thought about going down to the JP Open few weeks ago but couldn't snatch any of my friends away from drinking for the weekend.

beat...glad you found your way back! :) And thanks for sharing a bit of your experiences, there.

Except for the alt. country, which I'm not exactly sure is constituted by, it sounds like we have pretty similar tastes...I'll be PM'ing you with my list, yea, verily. Lots of Jazz.

beat, all: In case you haven't noticed by now, I'm a 'Greybeard' rooted in the mid-late 1960's. Why even mention that? Why even discuss music on a disc golf site?

Well, besides the convenience, I'm keen of the idea of becoming more familiar with the posters...if somebody keeps mentioning hairbands, I have a good idea I'm not going to be too swayed by their opinions...however, if somebody uses keywords like 'Americana/Roots, 60's psyche/garage', I feel like Pavlov's dog!!! :p :p :p

12-Girl Band: I've just seen the hype on bus-stop billboards, and one short snippet on TV. 12 Nipponesse teens playing Pop[?] on traditional instruments...prolly their version of "Menudo", but I was curious...

If you like the electric guitar and are into ballad-like rock and roll, you gotta check out Joe Satriani. He is by far one of the greatest guitarists out there. He taught and started a school for musicians in Cali. Go get any of his cd's and I guarentee you will be impressed....

Kick in Steve Vai and Eric Johnson and the trifecta is complete.

I believe Joe Satriani tutored Kirk Hammett of Metallica... I can really hear some 'Joe' on Met's first album...that shimmering type of sound!

Long live Stevie Ray Vaughan!! :cool:

I never miss Indigenous or Gov't Mule when they hit my area! NEVER!!

OK Doc picture this. A couple of summers ago I had only recently discovered Indigenous. My wife and I were down in Atlanta to go to a Jonny Lang concert at Chastain Park, a killer outdoor amphitheater venue. Fran's brother had set up the weekend, bought the tickets etc. and when I asked he did not know who the openers were. Walked in the gate cold, saw a vendor set up with hats, t-shirts etc one of which had the "Circle" logo on it. Oooooooo....this could be good. Sure enough Indigenous opened and brought the place down doing most everything on "Live at Pachyderm..." Talk about your pleasant surprises. Sure wish they came to the southland more often.
