Yeah I've seen Walk the Moon a couple times and their shows are fun. The best show though is 21 Pilots. I am not a fan of their music but their live shows are the most energetic shows I've seen.

When I had to rent a car last year it was mind-boggling how much time the FM stations spent in the mornings just talking about whatever. Who gives a shit?

I think music as a whole has improved quite a bit these last few years. Country is as popular as it's ever been and Pop is kind of getting an old school sound with either throwback beats or an almost folk like tune to it. I think hip hop has gone to complete shit, pretty much ever since Kid Cudi became big everyone is trying to copy that stoner sound making most of it boring honestly

I don't. Which is why I bring iPod wherever I go. When I'm driving, it's annoying as fuck to listen to people talking. I need music.friendfromlowry;1723789 wrote:When I had to rent a car last year it was mind-boggling how much time the FM stations spent in the mornings just talking about whatever. Who gives a shit?

Bluetooth in cars is the greatest - stream XM or Spotify.

XM flat out isn't worth it. If you have Bluetooth and still pay for XM then you're a moron.

Don't even need bluetooth. My car has a 3.5mm jack. A $5 cord and I do the exact same thing with Sirius and Google Play.Raw Dawgin' it;1723828 wrote:Bluetooth in cars is the greatest - stream XM or Spotify.

I may but I dont like to go search for music.sportchampps;1723746 wrote:I know someone said they couldn't find any current music and then got more into country.
You need to checkout Sturgill Simpson its country alternative and pretty awesome. The only country I listen to normally is Zac Brown Band.
I dont stream music. I dont download it. I dont go searching for it. I Just want to be able to freely turn on my radio and listen, for free.

My 75 year old grandfather can stream Spotify in his vehicle. It's not difficult.
He does it freely, and it's also free.

Not saying it is difficult. You still need some sort of internet to do so and I refuse to give in and pay for it on a phone.Automatik;1723840 wrote:My 75 year old grandfather can stream Spotify in his vehicle. It's not difficult.

I used to work in that industry and had the net and shit when barely anyone did. I grew to hate the amount of time wasted playing on their phones. Sure, some people need it for legit work purposes, but there is just entirely way too much wasted time, wasted money on those things that I downgraded and got rid of it all together.

I gave the new Slipknot CD a try this weekend and was disappointed. Every song sounded the nearly identical.Raw Dawgin' it;1723549 wrote:New Slipknot album is really good. Been listening to that a lot lately. Also a fan of Run the Jewels, not a big fan of their politics but I enjoy their music.
Vol. 3 was better because it had down-tempo songs to break up the monotony. On this one, by the fifth or sixth song on the album it was fatiguing to listen to.

Agree to disagree. Did you get down to Nomadic or Custer? Custer is my favorite off the album.MontyBrunswick;1724210 wrote:I gave the new Slipknot CD a try this weekend and was disappointed. Every song sounded the nearly identical.

Also - really digging this song too. Don't really listen to Zac Brown, too country for me, but this song is great.

They're 9, 6 and 6. They don't want to listen to 90's on 9...haha. So I guess I'm not forced, I put it on Hits 1 because it's what they enjoy and it really doesn't bother me that much. Keeps me hip.Raw Dawgin' it;1723693 wrote:Why forced? My wife listens to all these, but I don't go out of my way to find them. Some are pretty catchy though.

Custer is OK, but it's only a matter of time before it gets beaten to death by radio just like The Devil in I

I've been digging Houndmouth recently. They just released this album back in March. Really good background music for the car or at the office.

Old data (2013)...ha! I am 33 and baseball has overtaken football as my favorite sport (despite my team being terrible most of the time). Everything about baseball is engaging to me; the sights, sounds, smells, history, etc. It's something I can take my boys to watch and feel proud doing (I love football, but that's a crazy environment for children). You can call me old, but I'd go to 162 games a year if I could; I watch or listen to at least 162 a year as it is.MontyBrunswick;1724303 wrote:http://opendorse.com/blog/2013-sports-fan-demographics/
I realize it's a sport that's declined some in popularity over the years, but man...IMO it doesn't get any better than sitting in a ballpark on a warm sunny day with my family.
