Music at the 2012 Forum bash

[DX grunt]

OK, somebody had to ask.

Are we going to get 50 trucks with 50 types of music, at 50 different volumes?? lol

What sort of music does everybody like?

Are we going to run the sequence like a juke box, so everybody has a turn?

I'm just trying to prepare myself for the unexpected. lolol

Bloody good question Rossco, I like most types mate & I recomend we find the Rig with the biggest sound system promote it to the rank of disco bus & stick with the type of music that everyone can listen to.

Thats my 2 bobs worth anyway.

[UKKiwi]

Ross, not your 'old person' music! ;)

[AB]

If anyone has an ipod station thing then let us know too. Went to my mates house the other night and the sound that comes out of those docking stations are more than ample for some tunes around the fire.

[Woof]

Me personally when camping, just like the peace and quiet and good conversation, probably no chance of that with you lot but can only hope:p

[AB]

I agree, especially at night you really only want background music so we can hear ourselves laughing when Rossco, Rohan and Paul come prancing out with their dresses...lol

That's where the Dire Straights, blues, blue grass, John Butler's and all that type are good around the camp.

Totally agree, nothing worse then pumping Metallica and screaming at eachother to try and make conversations.

The forum meet up will be mostly middle age people and mature/considerate members so anyone who likes to get violently drunk and start fights, crank up hard loud music and go shooting native animals will not enjoy themselves with this meet up thats for sure.

Well said Doggy. But yer probably not much chance of that.
Depending on numbers?? (Only 8 voters so far, I know its only early days but), you might not need music pumping, just bit of back ground music (Doris Day)........lol, only jokin guys, and a lot of conversation. If there does have to be music pumpin, Im open to a wide range of genres but cant stand death metal or opera. Gettin out bush is all about leaving the city crap behind.



In all seriousness, the type of music being played at camp has the potential to make someone's trip less enjoyable. So this is an issue that needs thoughtful consideration by us all. People will be coming a long way and spending a lot of money to get there so we need to ensure what is being played is acceptable to everyone so we all have a good time. What rocks my boat may not be enjoyable for others, and vise versa so this needs to be kept in mind for this trip.

Personally, if someone starts blasting full-on death metal or Bryan Adams Greatest Hits it would not tickle my fancy.

If there is music pumpin, Im with Plas on this one. Well said buddy.
Andy, maybe another poll on music preferences by genres?????

Cheers Pete

Damn sounds like i wouldn't enjoy myself then *L*

[YNOT]

I'm not into loud music when I'm camping, background music is OK. As long as there is a variety of music and it's not too loud I think everyone will be happy.
If it keeps Plassy happy I'll leave the Bryan Adams CD at home!

Tony

[Woof]

My hammer really does not like loud music:icon_bonk::icon_bonk::icon_bonk:

hahahahahahah....... Well put Doggy & fully supported by me.

[Finly Owner]

Find a radio station that's clear and we'll all tune in to it and leave our vehicle radios on.

[DX grunt]

I gotta say it again......Country and Western. I'm quite a fan of the Wiggles too. lol Chugga, Chugga, big red car....... hahahhahaha
Hokey Pokey... lololol

Mostly middle aged people...... well I must be the one above the 'average'. ps, Wayne aka the dogman too. lol

[DX grunt]

Find a radio station that's clear and we'll all tune in to it and leave our vehicle radios on.

How about we all bring a generator each and see if they sing in tune, while we're sitting there enjoying the peace and harmony
of the great outdoor wilderness? lolol - NOT

[Bigrig]

Two things - firstly, drop the "middle aged" comment ... I am 38, and have no intention of dying at 76 ... my preference (if science allows me a say) will be to die at around 140 choking on the buckle of a bra strap that I've undone with my teeth!!! (and yes, hopefully not my own bra strap!!! LOL)

Other thing, doesn't anyone here play guitar? I play the drums to a fairly advance level (have a kit sitting here right beside me in my office), but they don't pack up into the trailer easily, and probably a little loud for most 'relaxing' camping scenes!! As for the music, I dead set listen to anything EXCEPT country and western AND/OR techno garbage ... other than that - go to town, but as said above, definitely for background only - the only reason you'd have the radio turned up is if you had nothing to talk about (which I doubt seriously) or there was a half decent footy game on (any code).

This is only an issue at night when sitting around the fire etc, as you'll have your own selection playing in your car for days on end getting there and back, and whilst driving around, so personally I don't think it's too much to ask that a decent mix (even including country and western if needs be - yuk) gets done up on an ipod and that is what is used at night so everyone gets some of what they want to here and what they don't want to hear only lasts for a song or two ... you with me?? I have a decent iPod player, and more than happy to be 'designated' to putting the playlist together as everyone shoots through their likes, and I'll continually update on a thread that shows the playlist? How's that for an idea?? You'll honestly only end up with a hundred or so songs on there and just set it on 'shuffle' each night so it selects randomly ...

That's my 47 cents worth ... thanks for staying tuned (even if it wasn't your taste!! LOL)

[DX grunt]

Good onya Bigrig. Thanks for the offer.

I like most music and not fussed if there's no C & W there. Long as the music doesn't vibrate my fillings out, I'll be happy. lol

I love hearing the guitar too.

38 years old.... nuh, can't remember that far back. lolol

PS. No listening to Aussie Rules footy or making bets. I've got no dignity left now! hahahah lolol

[Bigrig]

Right plassy ... track one, Fracus playing Snowstorn, track two, Cannibal Corpse playing Hammer Smashed Face ... the boys will all love this stuff ... not so sure about the local wildlife though. LOL

[Finly Owner]

Happy campers are we( the caravan song) John Williamson

[DX grunt]

Do we have any Duncans, coz I love to have a beer with Duncan, love to have a beer with Dunc.......and a toast to Slim too.

[Bigrig]

Right - obviously would be what everyone wants as said earlier (definitely with a bit of Slim Dusty, John Williamson and more than likely, Kevin Bloody Wilson also) ... but something like this below, very wide mix which will no doubt get modified heavily etc, etc as everyone starts adding songs etc - please note, the VAST majority of the music below is not 'my cup of tea' as it were, but was trying to make sure we all got the idea ... thoughts?? Sorry for the formatting - best I could do ... but you get the idea ... happy for someone else to 'own' this by the way - just made the offer the other day, so figured I be a good boy and start something ...

Bloody terriffic

[Bigrig]

Thanks old mate - this should be one of the easier things to sort I reckon ... not everyone is going to get just want they want, but it's background stuff anyway, and I figured if we stick to mainstream, old and new, nothing to extreme at any end (i.e. techno, metal, classical, etc) with songs that 'most' people would have at least heard at some stage, then we should have a bunch of happy campers ... hopefullly!!! LOL ... this happens at my old man's joint when he throws on Lou Rowles, or Mickey Gilley, or Neil Diamond, or the Mamas and the Papas, etc and whilst I don't particularly like the music as such, I often find myself singing along quietly to it ... I'll never admit that to the old boy though ... it's like when you're a kid and your mum gives you a ham sandwich - when she asks 'how is it', just a simple, "yep, good mum" with not too much enthusiasm is what's required ... otherwise you'll end up with ham sangers for school lunch every day for 3 weeks because she doesn't understand the difference between you actually liking something, and just being polite ... not that I have issues of course!! LOL

[AB]

What about Enya....lol:bananarock:

sail away sail away sail away...Rock on!

[Bigrig]

Sorry, no can do ... I'm obviously not the man for the job as I'm placing too many restrictions on the artist selection ... I suggest we get someone who wears pink tutu's and stands on top of a penis float at the annual mardi gras yelling "I just ant some respect people" to do it from here on in ... should be plenty of enya and kylie minogue from that point forward!! LOLOLOL. Can't wait to see this person at the meet up either when they show up in their heavily modified, pink, lifted VW beetle, with dual lockers and the flower emblem on the front!!!

[Woof]

What about Enya....lol:bananarock:

sail away sail away sail away...Rock on!

Well AB, believe it or not mate but I have a CD of Enya's Grestest Hits and I quite like it, just got to be in the right mood to listen to it.

[AB]

Well AB, believe it or not mate but I have a CD of Enya's Grestest Hits and I quite like it, just got to be in the right mood to listen to it.

Being a teenage hoon coming home at 5am every weekend my mum used to wake up at 7am, crank ABBA and Enya whilst deliberatly knocking the vaccum cleaner against my bedroom door at sparrows to punish me for being out all night.

I get shivers up my spine when I hear Enya or ABBA now...lol

[Woof]

Just for you AB

[patch697]

Righto, I'm all over it and sorting day two now mate ... how many days are we planning to be away for anyway? My music collection may not accomodate!! (I've only got 11000 songs or thereabouts in iTunes!!!!).

[Timbo]

edit: scratch what I said.. just saw the list from BigRig..

Looks great, something for everyone is a great idea.

Besides, if you just want to listen to your own music, could always play it in your car and listen to it lol!

[Bigrig]

Jeez BigRig why don't you put some effort and thought into it??

Haha sorry, that was a joke (sarcasm doesn't come over easily in written form). That is a VERY impressive job you've done there. Great work mate.

All good champion - always read things with the tongue firmly implanted in the cheek (the one in the mouth of course!!!)lolol ... hopefully that was the path everyone was thinking, most eigthies stuff that we all remember (hits), bit of country, bit of easy listening, bit of enya for AB, etc, etc ...

[wildgu6]

I might be mistaken but i don't see Metalica, Slipknot, Korn, Disturbed or Mudvayne on your list.
Obviously a slight mistake on your part there Bigrig , i expect you will fix accordingly. lol.....

[Bigrig]

Oh Kelvin ... you are a man after my own heart!!! I had to avoid putting Saliva, Abandoned Pools, Prime STH, The Butterfly Effect, Adema, Amen, Taproot and System of a Down on there also ... Disturbed is in my top three bands without doubt by the way (going to see them in April when they are in Oz - seen Metallica live twice also). Just thought the music should be more to the tastes of everyone ... that said, Indestructible by Disturbed will be hammering out on my stereo for the first obstacle I tackle in the truck at the bash!!!!

[Finly Owner]

Righto, I'm all over it and sorting day two now mate ... how many days are we planning to be away for anyway? My music collection may not accomodate!! (I've only got 11000 songs or thereabouts in iTunes!!!!).

2nights and 2 days???????????????????????

[Woof]

[DX grunt]

Now for a golden oldie....Gene Pitney ?????? Hmmmmmmmmm?????? pretty please ???????

[pauljud]

Good old 50's, 60's, 70's music is good for me.
I haven't put my name down to go to the 2012 forum bash but you can take it from this entry that i'm a starter for it.
I can strum a guitar and I can sing a few songs but remembering the bloody words is my biggest problem.
And I bet no-one will want to to la, la, la all nite long.
Good old rock nroll, little bit of country and lots of good times

Paulie you have to come along if you can strum a guitar and don't worry about the singing...I'm sure after a few beers we can all rip out some out of tune cat screaming vocals...lol

[Bigrig]

Gene Pitney can squeeze his way in there also!!! List isn't finished, but eventually we'll end up with a good selection that hopefully will appease most ... that's the plan anyway ...

[Bigrig]

Now for a golden oldie....Gene Pitney ?????? Hmmmmmmmmm?????? pretty please ???????

So are we going "Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" or "Twenty Four Hours from Tulsa" or "Last Chance to Turnaround"?? That's right .. Man Who Shot Liberty Valance!!! lolol ... everyone will know that - you watch the cringing faces when it first comes on, followed about 45 seconds later at the first chorus with every man and his dog screaming out the words!!!! lol It's a CLASSIC!!

[Finly Owner]

the man who shot liberty valance, is the greatest of them all!

[Finly Owner]

"little boxes" and "hello mutha, hello fartha"

[DX grunt]

Bay City Rollers ??????????????

[Finly Owner]

Any honky tonk music?

[Bigrig]

Now the requests are rolling in thick and fast ...

[Bigrig]

I haven't forgotten about this by the way!!! It's an ever populating list!!

[Bigrig]

Got some spice girls on that list? haha! Could be a good way to break the camp if no-one wants to go home at the end of it! pml

Hahaha .... nahhh ... figured the lads who dress like ladies will probably not want their thunder stolen ... I'll let them belt out "do you wanna" to ensure everyone packs up on time!!!! lol

[Bigrig]

Did spice girls have a beer spice? LOL

The only way they'd get me to dance to their music mate! lmao

[nowoolies]

Cant understand why all you young whippersnippers have to have Music blaring at the same decibel rating as a F 111 Fighter Plane and then have to shout at one and other so you can carry on a conversation.
I am definately not a fan of Loud Music

C'mon Bob ... admit it ... I'm sure you've been known to crank up "Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" on the old Gramophone! lmao

[Bob]

I could of have but it must be a long time ago because I cant remember it. LOL

Seriously though Loud Music when I am Camping is definate NO No .

[Bigrig]

Haha ... agreed, music at camping is a background 'thing' ... prefer the crackling of a good fire myself ...

[patch697]

Im a true old school Metal head so give me Iron Maiden & black Sabbath full noise.......... Through my headphones.............hahahaha

Im with you Bigus & Bob...... A good fire tinny in hand & the company of great friends is all you need when out bush.

[Maxhead]

I'm the same as most, I like to hear the dribble from everyone..LOL

[Yendor]

I have found when loud music is played that conversations normally stop.

Especially with such a large group and a roaring fire you will have to have the music so loud just to be able to hear it.

[Bob]

So we are all in Favour of no Loud Music

[Woof]

Exactly my thoughts Kris, the longer you sit around a campfire with a few drinks had by everyone the more intelligent the conversations get, would hate to miss any of the words of wisdom.

[Woof]

So we are all in Favour of no Loud Music

Yes, NO LOUD MUSIC Bob

[Bob]

Yes, NO LOUD MUSIC Bob

I am glad that you emphasised loud music mate. Music in the Background is quite OK as far as I am concerned

[DX grunt]

Richard Clayderman, yesss. But prefer natural bush sounds

You would've loved to join my camping trip last year then! WACKEN OPEN AIR FESTIVAL!!! Iron Maiden, Alice Cooper, WASP, Motley Crue, Anvil and Slayer. Plus others like Immortal, 1349 and so on.

Honestly, when it comes to camping and music, i cannot stand the generic crap that gets pumped out of the radio. I live and breathe Black Metal and Death Metal, but when I'm out four wheel driving and camping, I've never actually had my kind of music playing because it caused to much annoyance to everyone else. So I don't usually care what others play, I just tune out from it. Works fine for me.
I'd probably start doing backflips if someone slipped some Immortal in there though. It really IS the good stuff! Any takers????

Like most of those bands, but in short doses ... my metal days have been and gone as it were, but like them "in the mix" ... eg. More into disturbed, Saliva, 6Gig, Pantera, Metallica, Brand New Sin, System of a Down, Epidemic, etc and then pepper the play mix with Antrax, Slayer, Immortal, etc and even other 'softer rock' like Default, Three Days Grace, Flyleaf, Eve6 and the list goes on ... just no country, no techno, and no hip hop and I'm pretty easy going!! lmao

That all said, same goes - don't play music when wheeling, and don't really care at all when it's just background music sitting round a campfire - the conversation, laughs, crackling fire etc usually drown that out anyway ...

Hell Scotty I dont know one the Bands that you listed . Just goes to show what an old Fart I am.
RAFLMAO

Not at all - I'm 38 and wouldn't have a clue of most of the bands my kids listen to (and I think the music is rubbish - just like my mum and dad did with me, and probably their parents before them!!! lol). Different strokes for different folks old mate, but I bet whilst I say I can't handle Jerry Lee Lewis, Elvis, The Carpenters, Tom Jones, Johnny Cash, Harry Chapin, etc, etc, I bet I know half the words from growing up with it!!!! lol

I'd even admit to tapping the leg when "The Devil Came Down from Georgia" and "A Beautiful Noise" come on the folks' radio!!!

[nowoolies]

So that has just made me rethink on coming

not for volumne of noise as the best sounding sound system thats what i ment mate
you gotta come along Bob hay lol

and if a good selection of everyone`s choise of music is put into a mix at a
reasonable volumne all should be happy
i think it would not be unreasonable to have a mix that everyone could enjoy at some point on the play list hahahah

any road how about we put up a thread and all our tastes in music
maybe three or four choise`s each ???????
it wont be too hard to set up the music
and i am willing to set it up, i can do that on the putor hahahahahahahaah i have the tecmollogy to do it hahahahaha
at the end we could all have a copy as a reminder of our trip

[nowoolies]

Bay City Rollers ??????????????

KEEEERRRRRR BOOOOOOOOM
thats done hahahahahaah
