Shane Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Let's face it, the ski mountains aren't down the street from where we live, and whether you ski locally or farther out, there is time spend driving in the car. And when driving, the tunes are often rockin. What are your typical tunes to jam during the trip? Personally, I used to have Sirius Satellite radio, so i would often have it on Watercolors (Modern Jazz). Some of my favorite artists to listen to are Paul Taylor (who plays a mean Sax), Euge Grove, Marion Meadows, The Sax Pack, etc. I also love soundtracks, mostly from games (Destiny, Halo, etc.) What do you all listen to?

Paul Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I usually have a little heavier playlist rocking. Some good old classic rock is the morning wake up for those long trips to the US for me. Deep Purple, Rainbow, Styx, and Journey just to name a few. Lately, a lot of Greta Van Fleet has been filtering onto the playlist as well. Just to clear the palate after some hard rocking, I'll have some Harry Chapin or Jim Croce mixed in there, and some James Taylor too.

Ocean Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Via streaming internet radio over bluetooth or USB: www.jungletrain.net http://www.differentdrumz.co.uk/tune-in https://dnbradio.com/player http://bassdrive.com/ ...and sometimes the backspin on Sirius if I'm in a rental car. #junglist4life Shane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordo Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Hey Paul I caught Greta Van Fleet live at Bluesfest a couple weeks back. They opened for the Foo Fighters. They rocked! Regarding tunes on the way to the hill I'm kind of all over the place. Sabbath, Beastie Boys, Black Keys, Hawkwind etc... One thing I don't do is listen to tunes while skiing which seems to be the new norm. Everyone plugged in all the time.

Paul Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Lucky bugger Paul! Lol. GVF is rocking it hard and glad to see you got to see them. Interesting comment about being plugged in while skiing. I thought there was a regulation against listening to music while skiing. If you have your ears plugged in, and you can't hear any other skiers around you, and you end up cutting someone off causing an accident, are you not responsible for causing that accident? You would have no idea what's happening around you with your ears plugged. Riding the lift in one thing, but skiing plugged in is another. Interesting topic for discussion.

Shane Posted August 4, 2018 Author Share Posted August 4, 2018 I agree. Music on the lift is ok in my opinion. But skiing or snowboarding with the music pumping loud to block all around you is not safe or responsible. There's other people on the mountain around you, you aren't alone and need to be aware of your surroundings. Luckily I have seen this but in my experience hasn't been too common. I love hearing the sound of the snow, never going to block it with music while going down. Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocean Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 I definitely keep the volume to a level where I can hear what's going on around me. There are even helmets designed with headphones in them for those who enjoy a soundtrack! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
