| Whats on your Ipod?
As I walked around a tournament this past weekend I noticed an abundance of fencers with earbuds off in thier own little world....
Whats on your Ipod? Does it help you remain focused? Get you pumped up? Allow you to ignore disctractions??
So share your playlist...share why...also share your age group...
ACDC ,Aerosmith ,Alan Jackson, Barenaked Ladies ,Billy Idol, Bloodhound Gang, Bond, Corrs, Cypress Hill, Duke Ellington,,Europe, Joe Satriani, Johnny Cash, Lita Ford, Los Lobos, Skynard, Marty Robbins, Medieval Babes, Monkees, Nickelback, NIN,Offspring, Parliment Funk, Pink Floyd, Prince, Pussycat Dolls, Queen, REM, Stones, Santana, Seven Nations,Smashmouth, Stephen Lynch, Steve Miller Band, Stevie Nicks, Tom Petty, and otherr various soundtracks
Depends but usually to get me pumped....and 34

| My Playlist: Sherwood, Nickelback, Atreyu, AFI, Billy Joel, Deep Blue Something, Green Day, Fall Out Boy, Tokyo Police Club, Rise Against, Seether, Cold War Kids, Three Days Grace, Death Cab for Cutie, Hellogoodbye, James Blunt, Jimmy Eat World, Matt Costa
And then whatever my friends have on and force me to listen to, its usually not half bad either.
Why?: Well as you can see its a mix of just all out loud and obnoxious to calm. My mood really can change at tournament so my music appeals to any mood I might be in.
My age: 15
Oh and Rick... Nice playlist!

| I've got a nano which doesn't hold as much as I would like, so I keep changing what's on my ipod, but currently (counting only bands with a reasonable number of tracks):
Andrew Bird, The Appleseed Cast, Arcade Fire, Bear vs Shark, Blindside, Bloc Party, The Blood Brothers, Bob Evans, Chevelle, Chiodos, Circa Survive, Coheed and Cambria, Copeland, CSS, Daft Punk, Damien Rice, Dashboard Confessional, David Kitt, Death Cab For Cutie, Death From Above 1979, Dredg, Explosions in the Sky, The Fall of Troy, Fall Out Boy, Franz Ferdinand, Further Seems Forever, High and Driving, Iron & Wine, Jimmy Eat World, Joanna Newsom, Jose Gonzalez, The Killers, Klaxons, The Knife, Mew, mewithoutYou, Modest Mouse, Muse, My Bloody Valentine, Of Montreal, The Postal Service, Radiohead, Ride, Saosin, The Sea and Cake, The Shins, Sigur Ros, The Strokes, Sufjan Stevens, Taking Back Sunday, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Zolof the Rock and Roll Destroyer
However after typing that all out, I will say that I don't even bring music to fencing competitions. For me the reasons are: 1) it's antisocial 2) tends to calm me down and turn my brain off.
Nice one SSMSabreMN for Cold War Kids. Been starting to get into a bit of them lately, very reminiscent of White Stripes. Negative points for mrbiggs' Basshunter. I mean seriously man.

I didn't like their sound at first but the first song I got was a free download on iTunes. I stuck it in a playlist with some other things and after a while I found myself downloading more!
As for you, tehcow- The Shins, the Strokes, Postal Service... lovee them all! great choices | |

| Last week they (iTunes) had a free Joshua James download. That guy rocks. It takes a little while for him to grow on him, but I love him. He's great for people who like Death Cab, James Blunt, Rise Against, Jack Johnson, etc. | |
