Wr0ng thread, d00d


My gym playlist looks something like:

Skindred - Pressure
Stone Sour - Come What(ever) May
Army of Anyone - Generation
Coheed and Cambria - Graveyards and Gunslingers
Sikth - Summer Rain
Mindless Self-Idulgence - Stupid MF
Bullet For My Valentine - Tears Don't Fall
Faith No More - Ashes to Ashes
RoadRunner Records: The ALl-Star Sessions - The End

Last time I was in the gym, I had my Zune on shuffle, and found that Harder Better Faster Stronger (or whatever the correct order of those words is...) by Daft Punk is pretty much the best gym song ever.

Unearth is pretty good stuff too.

I like to listen to a lot of fast-paced rap when I work out too.

Outkast - B.O.B.
Tech N9ne - Welcome to the Midwest
Ludacris - Get Back

etc.

I like rap and hip hop for that too. I find it quite relaxing to get lost in the flow of a good rapper. I'm really digging on Cannibal Ox. I love the beats and the lyrics. Check them out on Youtube :) Their song Pigeon features a Jaco sample too, interestingly.

Rap has gotten such bad reputation through the mainstream hip hop and media. Listening to someone rap in a coherent, articulate matter about meaningful issues is a phenomenal experience.

Although he was fairly mainstream, old Nas was good at it. I loved his lyrics as they felt like pure poetry.

"All I need is one mic, one beat, one stage
One n**ga front, my face on the front page
Only if I had one gun, one girl and one crib
One God to show me how to do things his son did
Pure, like a cup of virgin blood; mixed with
151, one sip'll make a n**ga flip
Writin names on my hollow tips, plottin ****
Mad violence who I'm gon' body, this hood politics
Ackowledge it, leave bodies chopped in garbages
Seeds watch us, grow up and try to follow us
Police watch us, roll up and try knockin us
One knee I ducked, could it be my time is up
But my luck, I got up, the cop shot again
Bus stop glass bursts, a fiend drops his Heineken
Richochetin between the spots that I'm hidin in
Blackin out as I shoot back, **** gettin' hit!
This is my hood I'ma rep, to the death of it
'til everybody come home, little niggaz is grown
Hoodrats, don't abortion your womb, we need more warriors soon
Sip from the star sun and the moon
In this life of police chases street sweepers and coppers
Stick-up kids with no conscience, leavin victims with doctors
IF YOU REALLY THINK YOU READY TO DIE, WITH NINES OUT
THIS IS WHAT NAS IS BOUT, NIGGA THE TIME IS NOW!

All I need is one mic."

I'm 3 hours from chicago. sign me up.

[QUOTE=Jimbobntnr;17211686]I'm 3 hours from chicago. sign me up.[/QUOTE]

dude, i totally forgot about you, where you been?

are you seriously interested? because I will talk to jordan about it. we're going to start booking shows in the city once we have our members lined up and our gear/setlist nice and tight

Why a video? Can't I just make a recording with my $12 bass from a pawn shop and a 1/4" to 1/8" adapter?

Phoenix to Chicago = 26 hours, 20 if I'm driving. I'll need 48 hours notice of gigs and practice.

**** no I hate Chicago.
