I like Hip-Hop and Rap, so stuff like Ja Rule, Ashanti, Eminem, Coldplay areen't too bad either. Nelly's got a few goodies, and so have Creed and POD, loving Youth Of The Nation. Toby Mac, Maybe a little Pink. I dunno really coz my collections sitting on a HDD down in the garage while I put together a new PC for myself coz my old one died when the motherboard got spiked and so I'm a little stuck for music variety at the moment. Oh, and for Kiwi Band (Gotta be local man) I'd go with Che Fu. He's pretty good listen. Cheers Chilling_Silence	Chilling_Silence (9)
80749	2002-09-18 23:59:00	>Is it just me or are most of you computer geeks fully rock/punk freaks too? Fully eh. I'm the same (kinda). Listen to a wide range of hard rock and heavy metal. Always on hand are deftones, stabbing westward, megadeth, and incubus. Also balck sabbath, primus, filter, genesis, queen, fear factory, soad, faith no more.... lots more too but i'm not gonna list my whole cd collection! A heap of old and new "one hit wonder" songs.... come on eileen, more than a feeling, in the meantime. That cool new song "tribute" by tenacious d. Grew out of offspring, limp bizkit turned crap, though i do still love their first album.... metallica have never been my thing. punk just aint my thing either. too fast, you can never keep in time when playing it (i'm a bass player!!). my flat mate plays bloody puddle of mudd whenever he gets home, so i've been listening to that too....	loser (538)

I spent the last 24years collecting 1½tons of sound gear, and another ½ton of lighting, no points for guessing what i use it for.. If your ever in CHCH and see a tall man named Chris with dreadlocks down to his butt running between stage and mixing desk, and/or (un)loading trucks @ gigs, say hello, its probably me Yeah well theres this weird thing, last time i was at a a CMO gig, i got talking to Andy cripple, (an admirable guitarist/frontman, he's a programmer, sits all day writing programs, listening to .mp3s, and when off duty, plays guitar, eats, sleeps), a "fan" joined the conversation, and confided that he was just finishing a programming course.. the conversation went like some i would expect in here. Love of big power noizes, and computers seem to go hand in hand!	Chris Wilson (431)
80751	2002-09-19 00:24:00	Specific songs (apologies to High Fidelity) that should appeal to geeks. (showing age and something of my taste) - Computer Games, MiSex - Video Killed the Radio Stars, The Buggles - She Blinded Me with Science, Thomas Dolby - Industrial Disease, Dire Straits - Sledgehammer, Peter Gabriel (cheap shot, other songs of his are way better, but the sledgehammer seems appropriate with computers)	robo (205)
80752	2002-09-19 00:44:00	Dead Can Dance Massive Attack System of a Down Metallica Live Enigma Dido Train R.E.M. many more.... Preferably through headphones with volume turned up high	Lucifer (1939)
