+Bellageo Cache Game Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 What do you listen to on the drive to your next cache? I'll start... Jeremy by Pearl Jam. (Content-wise, this song has absolutely no connection to geocaching. But the groove is right on. ) How 'bout you? Ready? GO! Quote Link to comment

+RockyRaab Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Conservative talk radio. Period. Have owned my Durango for two years (and an F-150 for 12 years before that) and have NEVER had the radio on FM. On long trips or when I can't receive Rush, Hannity, Michael Reagan or G Gordon Liddy, I listen to books on tape. Quote Link to comment
+JohnnyVegas Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 (edited) Well if we are drivig to a cache I listen to Julie tell me "the GPS is beeping, is it time to park" followed by "Do you have to turn right or left" followed by "Is it time to park" followed by "Do you have to turn right or left"...

"All I wanna do is have some fun" - Sheryl Crow "In the summertime / when the weather is high" - an oldie, and google isn't helping "Lost in Love" - Air Supply "Jump 'n Jive" - Brian Selzter Band, IIRC One other oldie that I don't remember the name of, and can't remember the songs well enough to google'em.

+StarBrand Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Talk Radio - (if my wife is in the car) Soundtrack to "Brother Bear" or "Nemo" or "[fill in disney movie here]" if son is geocaching - sometimes conflicts with Talk Radio (wife + son geocaching) As for me: Talk Radio - (10 years of marriage - what can I say - it wears off on you) Country Radio - (if the song is good) My CD's (I think I own like 25 total) Soundtrack to Star Wars I thru 6 Soundtrack to Indiana Jones Movies 1- 3 (ok ok so I like John Williams) 3 Different Accapella (Christian group) David Meece Soundtrack to Braveheart 2 Different Denver and the Mile High Orchestra - (Big Band Christian Music) Soundtrack to Top Gun Soundtrack to Saving Private Ryan Soundtrack to 1st season of Survivor Handful of others...... Come to think of it - I listen to a lot of Talk Radio..... Quote Link to comment
+Yamahammer Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Arc Angels, Cry of Love, Barefoot Servants, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Stevie Ray, Delbert McClinton. I guess you'd catagorize this as Texas Blues. I also have some Pat Green, Live. Then there is Eric Clapton & BB King - Riding with the King. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment

Pitchshifter is entirely different from the first five listed there. They're more political punk meets electronica meets metal. They're hard to describe. I first got into them because they're all over the soundtrack for the game Twisted Metal II. Or you can try here I also forgot to add the Black Keys to my list as well.

TCE Posted May 9, 2005 Share Posted May 9, 2005 Nothing musical...unless it's the sound of us talking as we go. And once we arrive, more talk and, then walking...and if it's a long hike...listening too; to see if we can hear any animals Quote Link to comment

+drat19 Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 Have iPod, will travel. If I'm driving to a cache down country/dirt roads, I usually play some Country or Southern Rock...seems appropriate. Dueling Banjos is usually playing in my head during those times anyway. Elsewhere, mostly Japanese Jazz Fusion (T-Square, Casiopea, Masato Honda, Dai Sakakibara, Mitsuru Sutoh, Tetsuo Sakurai, Hiroko Kokubu, and others...). -Dave R. Quote Link to comment
