I am doin' this pro-bono for my bro's here at CA, so no payment is necessary and I enjoy it!

Yet, tokens of appreciation would be much appreciated.

Thanks!!

smokin5 · 05-20-2009, 09:20 PM

OK, how about a non-secular question:
What music do you enjoy listening to when enjoying a cigar or otherwise?

Good Question!

If you had to be any animal, what would it be and why?

I think you meant a secular question...

Truth be told, I really don't listen to music when smoking. Usually reading, studying, shmoozing or watching a baseball game.

I was more into music when I was smoking other stuff...

...like cigarettes, c'mon!

I worked in the music industry for 4 years and saw perhaps a thousand concerts. Now I mostly listen when driving to Niggunim (google it), Andy Statman and Aaron Razel.

I used to listen to: (no order short list

)

Bob Dylan
Funkadelic
Led Zep
Townes Van Zandt
Frank Zappa
The Band
Tony Rice
Lots of "New"Grass, David Grisman, Bela Fleck, Mike Marshall, VassarClements
Grateful Dead
Muddy Waters
John McGlaughlin (& other Jazz Fusion)
Hendrix
Neil Young
Blind Melon
Lakota PowWow Chants
Django Reinhardt
Moby Grape
Tony Bennett
The Black Crowes
Billy Holiday
Ray LaMontagne
Hank Williams
CSN&Y
Sinatra
Old and in the Way
Ben Harper
Brother Iz Kamakawiwoʻole
Tom Waits
Otis Redding
Allman Bros.
I could keep going, but I really was into music, lots a vinyl...

I would have said a bear when I lived on a Native American Resevation, but now I would probably go with a cow or fish.

One of the few foods I don't like is fish. But they just seem so fresh, flexible and natural - kinda tapped in - living and breathing in water and connected to their environment. They strike me almost like vegetation but moving all the time freely.

Cows just seem to chill. But they don't look up, so that kinda stinks.

TomHagen · 05-20-2009, 11:13 PM

I always say Sabertooth tiger (smilodon). Usually takes people by surprise and some of them actually try to argue that it's not a vlid choice--as if whatever genie is turning me into an animal is limited by a species being extinct.

I would spend all day hanging out on a rock, surveying my territory. Then I'd spot something and absolutely rocks its face.
