Gym Music

Most gyms that I have attended play a steady diet of classic rock crap...you know, ungodly shit like Journey? :P~

My iPod is heavy on bands like Ministry, Lords of Acid, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, Motorhead, Rage, Sisters of Mercy, Jane's Addiction and a lot of old punk. It helps with lifting, and even makes the despised cardio time pass reasonably well.

You have GOT to be kidding me!

The poster boys for Corporate Rock crap are like the Beatles, Ramones, and Nirvana? How did you get this job? How do you keep it? Btw, nice job kicking the stuffing out of all those straw men you set up. Journey didn't suck because they were well produced, and they didn't suck because of their virtuosity (hell, some of them were members of one of the best incarnations of Santana), and I have never heard anyone complain about how many minutes their songs lasted (unless you count the screams of pain from anyone with any taste when that treacle gets played), as that was a trademark of Prog Rock, not Corporate Rock. We all have our guilty pleasures, but you've made the mistake of not only trying to defend yours, but to call out those who don't share in your particular mental disorder.

Btw, are you the same guy who didn't know who Dickey Betts was a couple of years back?
