What\'s in your CD (or tape deck)

Never had a nice radio before. By most standards, I still don't. But the commute's better. Considering our differences, I was wondering what's in everybody's radio right now. If I can admit to Meatloaf, you all can admit to something, as soon as you stop laughing...that is

pennywise, pennywise
sinatra, greatest hits
west side connection
anything nofx
and always at least one bad religion

also, system of a down and machine head make frequent appearances.

Re: What\'s in your CD (or tape deck)

Being friends with mostly Irish tattoo artists and hanging with the friends that I have they have always been in my ear, about once a month or so when no band plays at the bar I always go to, they play they on the cd player, and when they start playing them everyone starts drinking more, then the the music changes to rock-a-billy then punk then metal and so on. You said your home town is the twin citys, I'm just south in Des Moines, ever been to Hary Mary's?...Chicken Hawks are playing this sat, cant wait...andy

Re: What\'s in your CD (or tape deck)

I've only been to Iowa once when I was 16 or 17, for a bike contest, We only got rowdy at some poor girl's house, A bunch of Iowa drunks were sending her furniture in flames off her porch; one guy got there late, & felt he needed to catch up, he just ended up way passing everyone, ended up passed out & shi* himself. I don't know about you Iowa kids, but you sure seem to have fun.

Re: What\'s in your CD (or tape deck)

Well, a few months ago, I too, had the AM/FM radio. I decided it was time, so I got me one of those one disc CD changers.
If I remember correctly, I have Korn's Issues album in there right now. Usually I listen to classic rock on the radio, and I also listen to talk radio too.

It will get longer, Hey SteveXJ, the next time you head home to the Twin Cities give me an advance warning that your coming thru Fargo (you do take I-94 straight thru, don't you?) We can get together for a beer and talk jeeps in person, I'd say we could go wheeling but there ain't much for that around here. BTW, you ain't rockin if you ain't got one of the Rolling Stones cd's. Don't matter which one, but at least one is a must.

Re: What\'s in your CD (or tape deck)

I've been feeling somewhat guilty for a little bit over a month now...

...I with-held information about my latest "MJ-Mod"...

Of course my friends all find it hard to believe I spent money on a music "system", they were somewhat consoled to learn that I bought all of it at Super Walmart and Big Lots...

So...
A couple years ago at Big Lots I found paired speaker boxes with speakers, (an 8 and a 6 in each box, I think) that were rated for 200Watts (I assumed they meant each) and I got them to stick in the Postal Jeep

The exhaust system on the MJ has been falling off and getting annoyingly loud, so I got a 10-disc 'X-Treme' CD-changer from Wal-Mart and a 300-Watt Jensen Amp, along with their 300-Watt wiring kit.

The speaker boxes fit perfectly behind the seats, with little metal tabs that I used to mount them to the carpet-covered cardboard back there, with the Jensen mounted between them. I yanked the stock rear speakes and used their wires to control the amp. The CD changer just sits on the tranny hump between the seats for now until I build the center console to conceal it. The FM modulator is taped to the dash in that blank spot below the clock. The power wires to the AMP and CD-Changer run under the passenger-side door sill. CD-Changer's FM modulator and control panel cords run under the driver's side door-sill, up under the dash, and you can barely see the wire that comes into the bottom of the control display.

Works great, sounds decent, the total cost was under $300, and I can't hear the exhaust anymore

In the CD Changer I've got...

Verticle Horizon
Blink 182- Enema of the State
SmashMouth- Astro Lounge
SmashMouth- Fush Mang Yu
U2
Natalie Imbruglia- White Lillies Island
Jimmy Buffett- Bars
Jimmy Buffett- Boats
Jimmy Buffett- Beaches
Jimmy Buffett- Ballads
(It was a 4-disc collection set...)

When I build the consol, the CD-Changer control display will be mounted on a fold-down panel on the front of it, so there will be absolutely no part of the 'system' in view.

Re: What\'s in your CD (or tape deck)

i know im a little slow but i have SOD (system of a down) in mine. well now that i finally have my cd player back. It got stollen but now i have a nice system in it. My insurance paid for it all. Deck, amp, the works. But SOD all the way. I went to one of their free concerts in hollywood and it ended up being a riot. No concert... just cops with horses, riot gear and big rubber bullets. Kind of sucked.

Re: What\'s in your CD (or tape deck)

Funny you should mention it Kraby, I was just listening to The Rolling Stones "Rewind" album driving home just a half hour or so ago. I definately will give you warning next time I'm driving home, I usually fly though, but I may be driving through sometime this June. My dad wants me to take some of my toys out of the garage, so he can more comfortably fit more of his. I don't know how I can fit two go-carts in my jeep, but they would be fun to have out here, so I'll figure it out.
