Hot Rod Music!

Speaking of Hot Rod music....

Why is it that EVERY car show / cruise / meeting I attend they ALWAYS play nothing but old 50's & 60's car music? Red Barchetta (by Rush off of the album Moving Pictures...) is probably one of the best composed pieces ever written, yet we must endure Shut Down and 409 at these events endlessly....

Wanna have some fun? Ask a DJ at one of these shows to play Highway Star( Deep Purple) or better yet, Jesus built my Hot Rod ( Ministry... ) and watch the blank look you'll get.

It's funny you mention this, because I DJ car shows for my car club and the likes... I had the 50's-70's playlist and started getting complaints. Redid it to a more modern classic rock playlist and people LOVED it! I have Jesus Built My Hotrod, but haven't played it. Most of my shows are a little more family oriented... I do play Highway Star, AC/DC, Zep, Floyd, and the likes... makes the shows so much more tolerable!

I'm probably cheating too... I use my iPod, hit shuffle, and let 'er rip! :headbang:
