Really I just sing these out loud. They're not like on my iPod or anything cool like that because I like to hear WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON AROUND ME WHEN I SKI...

ahem.

Remember when Sony's Walkman was banned from ski areas back in the day? We might want to revisit that outside the park.

Personally, I like show-tunes. I can't usually remember them, so I just sing prog-rock songs.

So? Whiskey and/or blow makes a lot of people happy and gives them courage. Doesn't mean it's a good idea.

On the lift I like to listen to Outkast - Hay Ya! and bob my head and make the chair bounce.

**booner** · 02-22-2007, 08:44 PM

Crazy Town - "Butterfly" ....best band EVER...if you put the lotion in the basket

**LARRY01** · 04-12-2007, 03:14 PM

Good ideas on this list. Also want to add James Brown and G Love. James gets me going.

**valleygirl** · 04-12-2007, 04:28 PM

U2's Sunday Bloody Sunday....

Fleetwood Mac's Monday Morning...

Rush's Finding My Way (boy-o's pick)

Cake's Short Skirt & Long Jacket

And anything by Sublime (boy-o again)

**hudbud** · 11-14-2009, 06:32 PM

sometimes bob marley like i shot the sherrif for pow and nosebleed section-hilltop hoods

Cold, snowy, night skiing (and driving to and from the hill): From Autumn To Ashes: "The After DInner Payback", most early Snapcase. For some reasomn, the uber cold snowy nights make me go heavy.

Spring day, sun is shinig, snow is soft: NOFX's Punk In Drublic album on repeat, most Bad Religion, about 3/4 of Op Ivy Energy

AAn ok give me some laid back hip hop. I'm too drunk to think of good exampl,es right now. Maybe some DL Incognito or Gym Class Heroes

An ep;ic powder day in the gtrees: Let me hear the snow under my feet, nothing else. Musoic on these days is for post skiing beers

Now ride home tunes is an even more intersting topic. What album do you put on after a lomng day on the hill?? 15 or so years (and a few bad albums) later, Weezer's blue album still gets me when I'm beat from a day on the hill. When Im head out at 4am to catch a WROD 5 hours away cause no one local's got snow, Bowie always works to start the trip. After that I let my gneral mood dictate

My favs from TGR films:

Deliverance -- Bubba Sparxx
When The Night Feels My Song - Bedouin Soundclash
King Without A Crown - Matisyahu
The Riddle - Random Rab
Heavy Artillery - Classified

And, throwing a few other ideas for good measure:

For pow days:
Pretty much anything from Blackalicious (preferably the Blazing Arrow album) and if you're into Swollen Members, check out the Black Magic, Heavy or Monsters in the Closet albums

And if you want to ski fast:
Jerk It - Thunderheist

Ministry..

**iscariot** · 11-15-2009, 06:42 PM

Silversun Pickups.

**Teh Poacher** · 11-15-2009, 07:16 PM

All things Grateful, or sometimes I listen to the Dead, for a change of pace. Old school Pink Floyd also works, Meddle or Wish You Were Here. Someone mentioned Green Grass and High Tides, Molly Hatchet's cover of Dreams (Allman Bros) is a great tune from that genre.

**TheDon** · 11-16-2009, 03:14 PM

!!!

Their stuff is the best to ski to...

**tetonguy** · 11-18-2009, 11:12 PM

Time to thrash....."Get Over it" by the eagles.....
Cruisin some quiet pow....."Ballerina" SPecial EFX - not the rap posers the jazz guys.

**nutcase** · 11-18-2009, 11:14 PM

I like to listen to "The Old Gray Mare"

**citationfire** · 11-16-2010, 02:41 PM

If you want to do something stupid on skis listen to Mudvayne, Korn, Dope, Godsmack, or Disturbed. Crystal Method is great to listen to for just cruising the slopes.

**thefrush** · 11-17-2010, 03:06 AM

lol. Horrible first post.

Depends on the day and how I feel. Every now and then I feel like cruising around by myself and listening to some tunes. Also, I coach, so sometimes it's nice to have something to listen to while standing on the side of a race course.

As for what I listen to... same music I listen to when I'm anywhere else. Anything and everything(almost).

I listen to music because I feel like listening to music. I do not listen to music to help with my skiing. That is stupid.
