[BlueCollarRon]

I regularly listen to bands like Pantera, Megadeth, Motorhead, Metallica, etc. but I also listen to country, bluegrass, anything with an instrument really.

[69byrd]

I listen to classic rock mostly from the 70s. I like Marshall Tucker Band, Mountain, Free, Foghat, The James Gang, basically anything I can chill out to

[oldyeller]

I listen to Country like Steve Wariner, Mark Chesnut, Chris Cagle, Lonestar, Trent Tomlinson and Alabama.  Don't care for Shania, Faith, or Dixie Chicks.  Like Christian music including Steven Curtis Chapman, Casting Crowns, Planning Yesterday, Mercy Me and Newsboys.  Will listen to rock on occasion.  My favorite song is "Almost Goodbye" by Mark Chesnut for sentimental reasons.  Love to listen to that in my yeller truck.  Can't really stand much rap, too hard to understand.  Love Christmas music.  I could listen to some of my Christmas cds all year long. I usually listen to K-Love when driving. 

[JRConnieK10]

Most anything, Country, AC/DC, Metalica, and some Blues like Kenny Wayne Sheperd, Delbert McClinton, Bonnie Rait, Susan Teudeshi, Tommy Castro, Stevie Ray Vaughn. Yeah that sounds good.

Guys, get a MP3 player. They hold from a few hundred to a few thousand songs of what ever you listen to. It's the best investment I ever made in my shop. Hook it to a set of self powered speakers like you would use on your computer ( plug and play ) and you are good for hours with no repeats and no greasy fingerprints on your CD collection!

It really doesn't get much better than a dose of JOE SATRIANI. A mainly instrumental guitarist.  I've been a big fan since 1986! I saw him in 2007 at House Of Blues in Chicago. It was incredible. Check him out!

Never heard of him.  kinda reminds me of early Van Halen's sound.
sorry, I grew up in the 80's.

[kfoz]

Never heard of him?? My God man! I'm 40 too!  He sounds nothing like early Van Halen. He's got a sound all his own. Check out more of his music. He has at least 15 records. It's all in the instruments. Words just get in the way.

Psst I never heard of em either and I too am 40.

When I first read it I thought it was classical music.

[80stepsideguy]

He sounds nothing like early Van Halen.

I have listened to two of his videos on youtube, and YES, he reminds me exactly of Van Halen's stuff when David Lee Roth played with them.  It is identical to the lead guitarists in that band.  Van Halen wouldn't have popped into my mind if it didn't.
listen to this...

Van Halen's Eruption

I agree, most times the words do destroy a great melody.

[Maintenanceman]

Southern rock country and then the more modern rock. Kind of an 80's metal fan my self but Skynyrd is #1 in my book

Rest in peace Billy Powell

Stepsideguy, those vids are pretty cool.  I like the Hammerfall vid, sounds good. Typical heavy 80's stuff, but, that's what i grew up with....Twisted Sister, Motley Crue, Poison, Guns and Roses, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, Ratt, Metallica---love those high energy songs

Of course, nothing beats the southern rock Led Zep, Skynryd, Marshall Tucker, Allman Bros, Pure Prairie League, .38 spcl, Molly Hatchet.

I'll add Stevie Ray Vaughan,  Steve Miller Band, Eagles,   Steely Dan, Peter Frampton, Ozzy, and as eclectic as my taste is, I also like ole Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson and could listen to them all day long. Throw in Cash,

If you like a good guitar, there is always Eric Clapton, but throw in Mark Knopfler--good mellow stuff, or anything David Gilmour of Pink Floyd...yeah, Floyd, saw them many times in concert in college.

Also love Kansas, Boston, Chicago, (there's a pattern here) Brooks and Dunn, Gordon Lightfoot, Dwight Yoakam, David Bowie, CCR (the original and CCR the Cross Canadian Ragweed), Chesney, Clint Black, Toby Keith, Bon Jovi--slippery when wet--AWESOME!,

Anything John Williams does (Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, Indiana Jones, Raiders of Lost Ark,  Superman,  ET, Chariots of Fire, Close Encounters,)  He is the Mozart and Beethoven of today mixed in to one. He was at the Inauguration--which is the real reason I bothered to go...to listen to him and his creation, along with YoYo Ma. 


Add some Gershwin and Vivaldi--wow, I gotta get my mp3 player fired up now.  It's like talking about food and gettin hungry.

Throw in some good old bluegrass--Bill Monroe, Ricky Skaggs, Doyle Lawson, Del McCoury, Dr. Ralph Stanley, Cadillac Sky, Nickel Creek---man, I'll be dancin all night long!

Anyway, that's what I like.  Oh, and I am a Parrothead thanks to Jimmy Buffett
