Thank You, Mr. Hawk; Thank You, Mr. Mirra...
Ahh...here's a list that doesn't begin with my screen name. This list is one that goes back to a time when I was finally beginning to gain a sense of what music I was into (it wasn't until 9th grade that that started happening). I started playing extreme sports games like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Dave Mirra Pro BMX, and I heard songs that I like, so I checked out those bands. As a direct result of those games, most of the bands on here are now among my favorites today.rI list the bands in ABC order, and the song that I first heard on a game. Games include: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater (1, 2, 3, 4, Underground, Underground 2); Dave Mirra Pro BMX (1 and 2); Matt Hoffman Pro BMX, SSX 3, and Crazy Taxi (not an extreme sport, but it was still pretty important for the two bands it played). |
