That Music Be BUMPIN'

[Lace Neil Singer]

If I had a car, which I don't; my choice would be something like Poison, Motley Crue or Warrant; something from the hair band era which is as far from rap as possible. XD I've also got some Jack Off Jill and early Marilyn Manson which could also be cranked up to annoy the wiggers.

[Dreamstalker]

I've drowned out gangsta rap with Tangerine Dream. That got some fun looks, plus applause from the sidewalk. Blue Man Group can also be good.

I would just pop in my DDR mix CD. That got some interesting looks.

I've seen them perform live. Good stuff.

Me too, a long time ago. Hell of a show.

[protege]

I always had the most annoying music I could find (the Hamster Dance, for example) when dealing with people like that. There's nothing greater, than seeing the looks on their faces with that one. Also fun, was to pull up next to people...with the Zoom Zoom song (from the Mazda commercials) going.

[Andara Bledin]

Then again, it's funny to see the looks when you're blasting metal and you look more like some new-agey chick.

People who don't really know me are always surprised to learn I'm a metal-head (among others).

[MoonCat]

Oh, some good suggestions on here! Tangerine Dream! And belly dance music!

I've got some old Vangelis stuff that could work. "Highland Storm" by Nox Arcana. Couple things by Cusco. Let's get creative.

I always wanted to find a recording of yodeling and crank it up under my neighbor's window about 4 am (by which time they'll have been quiet for maybe half an hour).

[Andara Bledin]

How about cranking up some bluegrass?

You know, I've never understood why people have those stereos on steroids.

*SNIPPY*

Plus, in some cases, the stereos are probably worth more than the car.

I'm in this boat. I bought my car for $250, towed it home, restored it mechanically, awaiting money and a place to store it post body job. It's got its rust spots covered with rustoleum to prevent further rust from the winters here in Utah.

Car stereo (was) worth $1300 before some asshat stole the faceplate(!!!) but not the rest of the stereo.

Granted, my stereo is for audiophile ears, not "deaf from bad music" ears, and didn't get cranked up loud often.

[Racket_Man]

I think the biggest problem with this is that, 20 years ago, it wasn't bad because only a select few in the ghetto had that blasting car stereo. It was like a rare novelty. But today, they're like assholes. Everyone's got one. Now you literally can't live in ANY neighborhood or subdivision without having "Soul Train" being blasted into your house and overloaded with bass.

try living right accross the street from a high school around noon or at 3pm when school lets out. mulitiple cars leaving and multiple stereos going THUMP THUMP BUZZZZZZZZZZ THUMP THUMP BZZZZZZZZZZZZ at once.

If I Had A Rocket Launcher - Bruce Cockburn

[Can I Help Your A$$?]

I don't care if they're listening to Texano, hip hop, gangsta rap or frigging BEETHOVEN, the people who buy giant stereo systems for their cars and blast them until my windows rattle are
1: SUCKERS
2: HATERS OF MUSIC.

There is no way that any of that music is meant to be played so that it is totally distorted beyond being recognizable. These boys buy systems because it's a status symbol. The stereo guys have quite a racket going, but I seriously doubt anyone at one of those car toys places knows JACK SQUAT about music.

You can try, but you cannot buy an identity. If you let yourself be defined by the products you own, you've disappeared.

Stick with bagpipes.

Word.

My life's goal...Metallica and bagpipes, together.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I live on a block with (at last count) 3 bars/clubs.

Every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday night these cocksmokers start up with their bass, scaring the cats and giving me a headache (and a nice foot massage!).

I, myself, have been known to enjoy some music with heavy bass but these people piss me off.

And then there's the souped up pickup truck fitted out to look like the front of a semi...

*mutters* people are lucky it takes me forever to get outside and my baseball bats aren't in easy reach...
