You get an ABBA pass. Now, what the he!! should I do for my 1,000th post..................................................................................................................
I know. Something I actually play.

great choice!!!!! listened to that today as well. I always start out with Southern Cross, and youtube leads me to others.

Some really good music suggestions in this thread.

I'm like JimR, I never carry a music player in the wild but I've always got a tune or three running through my head, at times repeating endlessly, obsessively.

Haha, story commin'. True story. My kids have a friend who lives on Juanita street in Redondo Beach. When I started taking them there and picking them up, I thought I knew, or at least my truck knew where to go. One night, I was supposed to pick them up at a certain time. I let the truck lead the way, but the damn thing got lost. I drove up and down and up and down several housing tracts looking for a familiar place. I was getting annoyed, so I tried to call one of them; no answer. I tried the other; no answer. Now I was getting pissed. The only damn reason I bought them cell phones is so we could be in contact with them. They never answered their phone and when I really needed it, nada!

I thought about letting them walk their arse home, then I recalled the street he lived on reminded me of a song. I couldn't remember the song, so I searched and searched my mind for that song, which you think would not take long since it's not very big. Suddenly, it hit me; Fat Man in the Bathtub by Little Feat. I drove right up to the house, then proceeded to read them the riot act for not answering their phone.

Several months went by and every time I turned on his street, I'd start belting out "Juanita, my sweet chiquita, where are you off tooooooo, my Juanita aah ha". One day, my daughter asked me why I sang that song every time I took them to K.J.'s house. I told her it was because she never answered her goddamn phone!

Cool story Jimr.........

Agree with you completely about not carrying a player in the backcountry. Enough going on there to enjoy.

A little more from the south side of town

ok..
