personally i like downtempo, jazz, dub, string cheese incident or some steely dan. However sometimes I can't decide what to listen to and just wanted to share a great station with you guys! Http://www.pandora.com. It's the best quick fix to indecisiveness!:D

I love Pandora. I'm actually listening to it right now. It is a very unique program. Once you get a station tailored to your tastes it is pretty much perfect. I've never actually listened to music while smoking. I need to smoke indoors someday... (just a little hard to do in a dorm room).

Everything. I prefer Radio Margaritaville (dot com), but tastes run the gamut from Blues to Zydeco

I have been on a blues kick lately, Robert Johnson, BB King, Billie Hoilday, and some jazz. If it's just me at home, then it classic rock, Hendrix, The Doors, Led Zep and Stones. :dance:

That sounds pretty solid right there. Buddy Guy and Johnny Winter have some albums I've been listening to recently. Also, can't rule out SRV and Eric Clapton.

My Jazz station on Pandora has become pretty solid.

Usually a mix of the Rat Pack. Can't go wrong with Frank and Dean though. Sometimes a little Cuban music thrown in as well.

Since I'm on the porch, my little transistor radio and me go out and listen to fluid tones of Sean Hannity. :)

He lies. He listens to emo-rock, goth-emo-core, and b-sides (because they got CUT.. har har har!). :r

As for me, I listen mostly to acid jazz (Portishead, Massive Attack, etc) and Euro rock bands like Keane and Muse.

When we're at the Shack it's mostly Dexies Midnight Runners "Come On Eileen", mostly cause it's on Dave's Ipod and Tom keeps putting it on repeat, it's his favorite song....at other times and herfs a mix of stuff.

Funny question. The other day I was thinking about the times I listen to podcasts during my smoke and realized how little I end up paying attention to my cigar due to being attentive to the discussions. It's wierd though, that I can still pay attention to the cigar if I'm out with friends.

Punk!

Dropkick Murphys
The Tossers
The Street Dogs
The Briggs
Flogging Molly
New York Dolls
Stiff Little Fingers
The Killigans
Flatfoot56
Kevin Flynn and the Avondale Ramblers
Darkbuster
The Pogues
The Deadly Sins
The Bones
and many others that I can't think of at the moment.

I like metal as well but I don't listen to it much anymore, Def Leppard, Iron Maiden, KISS, etc.

I did score some ACDC tickets for their show in Boston on November 9th but I'm not sure I'm actually going to go. I just got their new CD in the mail today and I plan on putting it in the CD changer in the car real soon.

I never listen to the radio in the car, ONLY my CDs. I own pretty much every CD that the first five groups on my list ever released.

The Tossers will release a new CD on October 28th and their CD release party is December 12 in Chicago (where they are from). I really hope to fly out to see that show, it will be AWESOME!

I would much rather see a punk band in a small club that see a bigger band in a huge venue. I average going to one to two punk shows a month and have been doing this for the past four years.

I got a copy of their CD a few weeks ago. Sounds cool, but nothing different than their other stuff. 30 years of one song, but what a song it is!

Keb'Mo and Kenny Wayne Shepherd should also be on any Blue's play list.

I usually listen to talk radio when smoking on the porch but on Saturdays a local station plays Irish music all day and I listen to that until the football games come on.

If you like Kenny Wayne, try Joe Bonamassa. He rocks!

Thank you very much sir. :tu I downloaded a couple of songs last night. He does sound alot like Kenny Wayne, although I think his voice sounds more like
Gregg Allman's. He'll be a great addition to my blues list.

Well usually I don't listen to any music other than the sounds of the backyard. But last night at the TriShield Herf we were listening to some blugrass being played by Banjo Mike and JKorp.
