Right up my alley, dude. Sadly, though, my age readily be obvious.
1. The Beatles
2. The Rolling Stones
3. Neil Young (O.K. – if it’s gotta be a band – Neil Young & Crazy Horse or Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young)
4. Steve Earle (my favorite songwriter – in keeping with the band theme, I could cite Steve Earle & the Dukes)
5. Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble – shorter career but the greatest guitarist ever
The honorable mention list is incredibly long!
The most interesting item is that I rarely listen to any of these artists on my iPod because, with the exception of Steve Earle, I can always catch them on the radio. Instead, I listen to a variety of newer and lesser known artists.
Other things may show your age, but good music is good music, and you just happen to like bands from the best times in Rock.
If we do a list on cars it wont be unlikely that the best cars also came from 1965-1969, it was a great time when people were creating new things and not copying what had already been done.
Made up a couple of WODs this morning.
Monday’s:
5 rnds of 15 push-ups/15 over-the-box jumps
6:52 as Rxd
Annie from Wednesday:
6:00- PR by 28 seconds. First time doing 50 DUs unbroken. It was definitely the sit-ups that gave me a hard time today.
Top 5:
I’m not much of a music person- that’s Sarah’s department. I am on a HUGE Nickelback kick right now, and I love anything by Puddle of Mudd.
This is very hard for me…I LOVE music! Can we split into decades or genres?? My list is much longer than five, but here are the bands I could listen to over and over again:
1. AC/DC
2. Guns N’ Roses
3. Nickelback
4. Breaking Benjamin
5. Soundgarden
6. Alice in Chains (too hard to name just five)
And yes…I am a rocker! The louder the better.
As Bob said above, lots of bands on the honorable mention list
Greetings CFDM from Florence. Incredible trip in Italy! My daily WOD which remains the same every day:
Eat 1x my total body weight in fresh meats, cheeses and gelato
Drink 1.5x BW in vino
Enjoy the scenario.
Its one of the toughest WODs you can do! Saw the Pope and rec’d His blessing.
Going to our 5th winery.
Kelly H text trowen@glazers.com Celebration nums. Miss ya guys. Ciao
You forgot one part of your Italian WOD – smoke 0.75X BW in ciggies.
I realize you probably don’t smoke, but when in Rome (or elsewhere in Italy) . . .
Did yesterdays workout
Back squat
135,185,235,255,285(PR), 305(failed x 2) sorry I nearly took you out coach Mike, that was very embarrassing.
5 rounds of HELL, appropriately named. 16:32
bear crawls were terrible.
Top 5, not necessarily in order.
Johnny Cash
Tom Petty
Jane’s Addiction
The Beach Boys
The Ramones
Definitely love JC – didn’t include him because I thinking rock-n-roll and I consider him country. Even so, he WAS at Sun with Elvis and he definitely had a rock-n-roll attitude, so he probably should have been on my list It was a tough choice for me between SRV, TP, & The Ramones.
I am with Sarah on this one. I love music and listen to almost anything but country. Thanks to Sarah, I actually have broke out some ‘old school’ R&B and have been listening to a little TLC and various artist from my Jr. High days.
I just wanted to let the evening crew know that I will be there tonight to coach, but I tutor until 5:15 so it will be right at 5:30 when I arrive. Go ahead and start the warm-up and I will see you soon!
Thanks!
1. George Strait and the Ace in the Hole Band
2. The Beatles
3. Chicago
4. VanHalen
5. Dave Matthew’s Band
Def Leppard – AC/DC –
right now I am like – Over the Rhine, OAR, and Elbow
