I went down to the local shop on my XB12X this afternoon.

Jeeez! it's nice to be riding it after some of the huge bikes I've been testing lately.

I've really liked some of them too, but the Uly is just 'me'.

Lovely Spring Afternoon, you still need 1 thermal layer under leather to be comfortable. Azure Blue skies.

Coming home, The Pretenders 'Biker' came up on my iPod Play list.

I stood in the shed in all my gear and let the song finish while I just looked at my motorbikes.

-------------
Biker they tell me
You're a dangerous lover
Well that might be true
Oh, but I'd never ride with another

Maybe they've never had their arms around
anything so wild and free

You bring the biker out in me

I can't understand it
Why people give you grief
You play the one armed bandit
Like an outlaw with a belief

To them it's the norm
for a man to conform
to a godless society

You bring the biker out in me

You bring the biker out in me

Because they've no interest
In the struggle to obtain
The status and bogus desires
That drive most people insane
You who have nothing have
Something that only the 3%
Could ever see

You bring the biker out in me

You bring the biker out in me

-----------
OK, I changed the number.

Guns n Roses
Back when I had the Bandit, my song was
"I used to love her"

I did a road test on an Ultra.

I got the Doobie Brothers Long Train Runnin just as I hit the freeway on ramp.

I loved the world that day too.

Showing my age, but... when I'm tooling along the highway on my K1200LT I like "Barracuda" by Heart. Something about that bass riff...

Deep purple smoke on the water ( yes I am that old ) tooling through town on the way to work.

BTW did you know that listening to Nugent causes Wheelies?

Blues Oyster Cult; the live version of "Don't Fear the Reaper"

Although Deep Purple and The Doobies has a big place in my heart as well. Ahhh, the memories : )

I like "Barracuda" by Heart. Something about that bass riff...

If you're talking about the intro, it's actually a guitar riff. There's a local group around here that covers it - the guitarist is insane and it sounds perfect on his Telecaster.

I have far too many songs that get me in a groove - Everything from Chevelle to Van Morrision to Billy Joel to Fair To Midland.

I hate to admit I am listening to Three Dog Night - Captured Live at the Forum . . . There's something about that version of "Heaven is in your Mind". . . I'm looping it with the original by Traffic.

Actually, I was referring more to the octave range than the actual instrument. Something about it just makes me want to roll the throttle WFO.}

Have you heard their version of "Stripped" originally by Depeche Mode ... takes on an *entirely* different meaning. Kinda like Marilyn Manson's version of "Sweet Dreams" - very different.

"If you're talking about the intro, it's actually a guitar riff. There's a local group around here that covers it - the guitarist is insane and it sounds perfect on his Telecaster."

You need a Strat with a whammy bar (vibrato actually, but everyone calls it tremelo) and a phase shifter to get it just right, though.

I play a Tele, btw.

Henrick, you're right!
Also I really like the covers that Johnny Cash did before he died. All the songs he covered have a totally different feel to them.

Just about every time Smokescreen and I are together, Rammstein can be heard...
...for miles!

Actually just turned on my TV and Stereo to the Music choice channels and listening to 70's and 80's. None stop uninterupted toon's. All this stuff brings me back...... WAY back. Its Funny and I know there's lots of guys that are older then I and have more memories on the account of that. But its funny now that I'm getting real close to 40 that I really miss the old day's more now then ever and music is really the only thing that brings us as close as we'll ever get to reliving it.

If you dig Rammstein, don't hesitate, get the volkerball dvd set if you haven't already. I'm not sure if its released in America but you can go to rammstein.com and order it there.

Nice, man.
