What music do you guys hear on the trail??? I would like to compine a cool cd just for the trail, half for high speed and half for very slow passes.... I'm listening to your preferences guys.... | ||
| Sergei Rodionov (Uzbad) Senior Member Username: Uzbad Post Number: 450 Registered: 08-2003 |
None  You sweat, you curse, you listening to your vehicle. Also loud music is not nice to environment and other wheelers (i once wheeled next to guy who been listening to some HM stuf with upgraded subs - it did suck). On very easy trail/way back - some russian bards or ye old good Jazz Cafe channel on Sirius will do trick | ||

Depends where you are, Sergei. I'd agree if you're on a heavily used forest trail near houses and stuff, keep it down. But I usually cruise BLM service roads, and there ain't nothin better than lightin' up a Marlboro and crankin' some music after a long day... The Cure, Joy Division or Mogwai are good trail tunes. | ||

Nope. Always listening to tires and truck. Even after the trail is done and I am wondering if I broke something. | ||

I agree , the best thing you could hope for is to be listening to the sound of silence.. | ||

silence? i wish knew what that was. "dad, what's this?" "dad, what's that?" "dad, where's Bennet?" "dad, are we stuck?" "dad, dad, dad, can i have some chocolate milk?" marc | ||

I kinda agree with both sides. I like some music but I think you really have to be able to listen to what is going on underneath you. Regardless of my opinion, here are some of what I would put on a CD Fast: Ozzy Crazy Train/ Metallica Fuel/ Tim McGraw Comfort Me /U2 Mission Impossible/ Chris Cagle Chicks Dig it Slow: Alan Jackson When Daddy let me drive/ OAR black rock/ Brad Paisly Mud on the Tires/ Bone Thugs and Harmony Crossroads Ok that is a random list Hope you like it | ||

Marc and Tim - were with ya'll. With two girls it is constantly I'm hungry... I'm bored... When are we going to get out to play?... I'm thirsty... I'm hot... or my favorite I HAVE TO GO POTTY!!!!! However, in our truck music helps drown them out so we do like to have the tunes on. We like AC/DC, Nine Inch Nails, Metallica, George Thurogood, LED ZEPPLIN Of course, Eagels, Janes Addiction, Aerosmith, Fuel, 3 Doors Down, Cold Play, old school dance music, and I can't forget good ole' Hank Williams jr., Garth, & Alan Jackson, etc...

My radio is always off when I'm on the trail. I like to listen to my truck like others have said before. BUT... If I was to listen to music... Mushroomhead (kick ass band) Static X (kick ass band) Motogrator Slipknot Chimaira (very kick ass band) Killswitch Engage Opeth Just a short list of what I like. It gets the blood running a little faster too... Wouldn't recommend it for you folks with little kids though... (obviously) | ||
| Dave Statler (Falconx84) Member Username: Falconx84 Post Number: 151 Registered: 02-2004 |
Godsmack is ool if you're doing something intense -- navy used a song in a commercial Metallica, definitely AC/DC if you're into the old-school rock, good all-around travel music "Adrenaline" by gavin rossdale is a favorite, too Normally I tend to listen for a crunching or dragging sound, though | ||
| Dave Statler (Falconx84) Member Username: Falconx84 Post Number: 152 Registered: 02-2004 |
Geez -- I just realized I forgot a couple classics country - "Chicks Dig It" Chris Cagle - awesome song (even if you don't like country, it fits)
Papa Roach - esp the Infest CD | ||

I am actually havent seen as much smoking people as i do in Colorado since my latest visits to Estonia&Russa - whats up with that? Marc - lol.. I am wheeling with 2 years (he is hitting 3 in two weeks) His normal replics during wheeling "hey big rocks" "i like big rocks" "i want to wheel" "papa wheel" "i wanna eat" (at which point he is stuffing himself with carefully prepared meal. Then he collapse. His greatest sleep was over entire length of Imogene Pass Trail ) | ||

Sergei -- Of course, of course... but I'd say most people in my age range of 18-25 would recognize it more from pop culture than from Wagner As for smoking... well I guess we all have our vices. You only live twice, right? Rob- Flaming Lips, hell yeah. Clouds Taste Metallic is one of the better rock albums this side of the 80s. | ||

Flyor- BOB SEGER! Wow, one ever mentions him anymore. I saw him live at the Pontiac Silverdome in 1976. Alto Reed on sax performing "Turn The Page" was one song that really stood out, awesome concert. I saw J. Geils the same year, rock on dude! | ||

Rap for the fast stuff: Twista-Eminem-D12-Ludacris-Tupac-50 Cent-sometimes you have to go back to the snoop/dre/beastie boys/ice cube classics. Country for the slow stuff: Clint Black-"Like the Rain" <-favorite song Tim McGraw-Garth Brooks If you are wheelin a new trail that you have to concentrate on or with your wife/girlfriend/weekend thing that insists on talking about "your relationship" (i.e., what you gotta do different) then you have to go with classical, it increases your IQ so you can concentrate and calms you down so you dont put her on the roof rack | ||

Good hip-hop to bump from a Rover that might not make everyone immediately lose respect for you (if they know anything about music): Big L, Nas, Mobb Deep, Notorious BIG, Cam'ron, The RZA, Jay Z, Razel (and the Roots), Fugees, OutKast, some old Wu Tang, and old Gangstarr (Moment of Truth, not Full Clip). Some Inspectah Deck and Guru, too. The Masses are good if you like politically themed rap. | ||

When wheelin, if I am listinin to music at all, I like my freedom songs: Tom Cochrane "life is a highway" Big Audio Dynamite, "Free" same titla by the Soup Dragons, Bon Jovi, "It's my Life", And various other songs on my escape mix. I especially like the line in Big Audio Dynamites, "free", which goes, "and I never want to see another shopping mall." Normal driving I go for anything rock, rap, punk, or Ska: love some of Eve 6, Sum 41, Reel Big Fish, Beastie Boys, Run DMC, and more. So, what's wrong with havin subs in a rover Felix? | ||
| Perry Ray Miller (Discojunky) Member Username: Discojunky Post Number: 154 Registered: 03-2003 |
I'm a musician and love music but if your listening to music while your four wheelin' you are either on very easy trails(and there is nothing wrong with that) or you are not in tune with what you are doing. No pun intended. If your not listening to your vehicle on the tuff stuff thats insane because the sounds tell you a lot. Don't get me wrong you can watch tv without sound and tell whats going on but you get the whole picture when you can here it too. Classic rap!? | ||

Perry -- I must agree with you... I listen to music only on the "unimproved roads" or dirt logging trails that you could take an explorer on. As soon as any obstacle comes up, the radio's off.

| Steve Andrews (Sillybus) Senior Member Username: Sillybus Post Number: 450 Registered: 08-2002 |
Thats a common misconception. Phish didn't do that Gin and Juice thats floating around, it was the Gourds. Some dumb burnout mislabeled it. | ||

Really? My bad. Either way I think it is funny. What do you think of OAR and Dispatch? I like both of them a lot. Could be some good wheeling music I suppose | ||
| Adam Ross (Discodriveradam) Senior Member Username: Discodriveradam Post Number: 256 Registered: 01-2003 |
Dispatch, hell yeah Matt. I would have plugged for them but I was sure no one would know who they were. Definitely the best sunny weather band I've ever heard. And OAR, dude I wear them out. I can go for some "Black Rock" or "The Wanderer" anytime. | ||

When off-road, I'm usually listening to the CB. Now that my boys are 8 and 11 it is most entertaining to let them try and talk on the CB. Nonetheless, the best music for off-road or country road driving is one of Robert Earl Keen, Jr.'s live albums (No. 2 Live Dinner is best) or something by Stevie Ray Vaughan | ||
| Jack Quinlan (Jsq) Senior Member Username: Jsq Post Number: 632 Registered: 10-2002 |
