The Decibel level in your helmet will be horrendous. You only get a very limited number of chances with your hearing. Screw it up and it is screwed forever.mmmm...tunes... have a MP3 player and on long solo trips i listen to Slayer, Pantera and Megadeth. have a socket and speakers in my helmet so i dont have the earphone thing happening. and no, its not loud. can only just here it at 100kph but i can still hear traffic.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

I'm not comfortable wearing a helmet without earplugs, and I've played drums for 25 years, amplified and acoustic. While we're on the topic, how come sound engineers are utterly incapable of providing a decent vocal mix to any monitor I've ever had the displeasure of sitting next to??

Yeah! Go Joe Satriani!
I got the G3 DVD last year, with Satriani, Vai, and Eric Johnson.
Honestly, all my friends think I am wierd becasue I listen to music that was around long before I was born (I am 14), screw them, Go Metal!
Well, not all of them, my friend who is on here, Alarumba I believe his name is, is a big 8 Foot fan, I can't say I like them though. Oh! And Iron Maiden and Ozzy Osbourne!
It is a pity there are no new decent musicians these days... Pop, and it's close cousin Pop-Rock piss me off no end. And rap. Especially rap.
Rock On!

Damn drummers. Noisy buggers - I've nearly ruined my hearing having to wind my Marshall right up to compete with loud cymbals...coz you're a drummer?????

Music is for driving cages. Some of my favourite driving albums:
Cult - Love (Rain is a great track but Love is my favourite)
Disturbed - Believe
Radiohead - The Bends
Leftfield - Leftism
The Prodigy - Music for the Jilted Generation
Sublime - Sublime (1st and only album)
Stone Temple Pilots - Core
Soundgarden - Superunknown
And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

Wasnt G3 Vai, Satriani and Malmsteen???
celtic: soundgarden = a man with taste...radiohead tho..???
BACTERIA
Yes, most G3 tours are, but Malmsteen was elsewhere, so they roped in Johnson.

If you're going to play with shit drummers with no technique or social skills then that's what happens.Damn drummers. Noisy buggers - I've nearly ruined my hearing having to wind my Marshall right up to compete with loud cymbals...

Very simple trick that works for any noisy situation. Don't turn up, turn down. Works every time.

Ah come on now, there's definitely room for a bit of subtlety with your music...
Not every album has to be 4/4 riff-orientated head thumping driving rock. Although it helps
Actually, my music taste is very wide. I just like radiohead. Ed O'Brien is one of the most original and versatile guitarists out there.
And for sheer emotive energy is pretty hard to go past a track like "Bones"
Actually, my favourite band of all time is Jane's Addiction.

You're spot on there Jim.
A consistent trait with every exceptional drummer I have every played with is their request that everyone turn down.
As for dummers with technique AND social skills. That's always been a tricky one...
every time you find a really good one they go and explode on you.

Cruisin music? My god the names that I recogised Abba and Bon Jovi you got to be kidding. Maybe this is a sportsbike thing but if you going to be cruisin' down the highway on two wheels at least respect your eardrums with a good ol' biker band. Joe Walsh, Grateful Dead, James Gang, Lynard Skynard etc.
Me, 1 Last Dance with Mary Jane, Tom Petty
2 We're an American Band Grand Funk Railroad.
Heaps more, but keeping with the sports bike thing I'll go with
Hawkwind. Music to fly too.

Joe Walshhhhhh?????? Can't sing, can't play guitar Joe Walsh????? Sheesh.
I like Bill Bruford's Earthworks for cruising music in the car. I also (shame) love David Lee Roth's Skyscraper on long trips.
