Suggest Some Music

[Gayowulf]

Over thanksgving weekend (the canadian one) I am in charge of the music at a local motorcyle race. I need 6 or so hours of music, and I dont know where to start.

Basically what I need is what an average slightly redneck male would like to listen to, in terms of rock music from the 70's till now. I know I can't go wrong with AC/DC, and maybe some aerosmith and maybe some pink floyd. But beyont that I dont know.

Any suggestions? What kind of music do you like, Webdude? :D

It shouldn't be too hard, and it shouldn't be too soft.

I would recomend Polka.. how funny would that be?

Theory of a deadman - Nothing could come between us

Any Widespread Panic
Any Grateful Dead
Disco Biscuits
Allman Brothers

I live in Redneck country, and trust me, Allman Bros. are defintely redneck material.

I live in redneck country too, but these rednecks are slightly younger than average.

The following list contains horrible music that nobody should listen to.

Steve Earl (copperhead road)
Kansas (carry on my wayward son)
Whitesnake (whatever song that they sing)
Scorpions (same as above)
Skid Row (18 and life, youth gone wild... whatever)
Limp Bizkit (anything from their second CD)
Kid Rock (anything, it's all crap)

[Gayowulf]

Some of that was perfect. Almost too perfect. I'll ask some of my friends in welding and heavy duty mechanics. no doubt they'll be able to offer some good suggestions

I'd hardly call those British bands... more commercialised pop crap :)

Eagles - Life In The Fast Lane
John Mellencamp - Pink Houses
Bryan Adams - Summer of 69'
Bon Jovi - (Wanted) Dead Or Alive
Def Leppard - Photograph
Tom Petty - Refugee
James Gang - Walk Away
Blue Oyster Cult - Burnin' For You
Doors - Break On Through

They should be able to recognize all those.

They arent realy rednecks. Just your average joe with at most a highschool education who likes to drink beer, bull----, and go hunting. The kinda guys who consider themselves really manly.
