I really need to check this out now. I think the best guitar player that ever lived was "Dimebag" Darrel Abbot(R.I.P.) from Pantera (then later Damageplan after they booted Phil Anselmo). If you ever just listen to his stuff it is frickin amazing. In one concert he was messing around and played Jimi Hendrix "Little Wing" and tore it up.

 

For guitarists: Yngwie Malmsteen FTW!!!!

He plays mostly experimental music, but he's amazing!!!!

 

Four seasons ftw! I use to have 100 classical masterpieces in my car. I might have to find that cd and put it back in there. Made driving in traffic a bit easier.

Right now in my car i'm rocking a bunch of spanish music consisting of:

ozomatli
tres deliquentes
los panchos
orishas
buena vista social club
compay segundo

 

That reminded me in the fraternity house we used to play Quake 3 against each other on our computersvia the school network. everybody would leave theirdoor to their room open to talk trash when they killed someone. I used to crank Enya's "Only Time"on my computer super loud while I massacred them. It washilarious. They would all be like "You are a phsycho dude!"
Turns out the guys that were the best at killing everybody elsewere the nerdy senior pre med and pre law students.

After a month or two we realized that the version of Quake 3 everybody had been sharing had given all of our computers viruses. That quickly ended our fun.

 

I remember playing cs over the network at school. Those were good times!

I usually dont listen to my music in the car, I just listen to the radio. Mostly because I have a stock head unit (tape + radio) and dont feel like dishing out the $$ for a new one.

 

A friend of mine's parents were real religious. Once he accidentally locked his keys in his car with Pantera up near full blast. He had to call his parents to bring him his spare key. I wish i could have seen the looks on their faces when they heard the music!

It was not easy to find anybody in college who was down with Pantera. I only had 2 friends that appreciated it. Of course they were both from Dallas TX. One of them introduced me to the music of Type O Negative. If you've heard them, their lead singer (Peter Steele)has like the deepest voice I've ever heard.I was told he was7 feet tall, but a little research just said he was only 6'7".....still tall. One of my buddies met him at a concert and shook his hand. My buddy said his entire hand fit in the palm of Steele's!
