Gov't Mule - in my opinion the best band. Just buy the Deepest End live cd and let it play. Amazing.

Gov't Mule is awesome. I love that hard driving guitar sound.
Anything except rap and hiphop. I'd rather listen to polka.

Full disclosure: Old White Guy here.
I prefer silence. Tolerate softly played blues or light classical. Something you couldn't or wouldn't dance to.
Military and motorcycle experience were not kind to my hearing, so much contemporary songwriting is lost on me.
An exception is BuckCherry's paean to Paris Hilton, "Crazy *****", to which I was introduced one bleary league night, at 105db. While down on a difficult nine ball. Which I dogged.
The tune is catchy, the band tight and the singer's diction excellent, tho not quite there with Warren Zevon or Harry Chapin.
When this or similar music comes on the juke box, the inner banger, which I've spent years suppressing, emerges.
Warp speed IS pocket speed.
Riding the cash is somehow...right.
Hmmm...no wonder I'm exhausted after a league night.

I have my computer loaded with good tunes. My favorites are up beat stuff to catch a groove. I also play some concert DVDs. Try Joe bonnamasa live at royal Albert hall. F&$?king awesome. Tower of power, Chicago old stuff, blood sweat and tears. Stevie ray Vaughn. But my favorite when I need a lift I play Vince guraldi. He was the piano for the peanuts. The best.
Yeah well, I'am another old white guy here who still rides a motorcycle. Because of my age and where I grew up, it's Doo-Wop.
The best you can find still working today is Kenny Vance and the Planotones. One track and I'am back on the corner under a shot out streetlight, Triumph at the curb. It's that good.
On the down side I retired to Virginia. You can't find decent bagels, pizza or doo-wop anywhere south of Philly.

I'm old school. The clicking of the balls is all the "music" I care to hear. I don't like any music playing when I'm shooting pool, and I'm a professional musician.
I can't understand how anybody can relax and concentrate on playing, with background noise or music.:shrug:
"Rack 'em Up" by Johnny Lang

Even though I am over 40 I still like to listen to hip hop when I
am playing,the louder the better lol

I usually listen to techno music when I am shooting. If not that than rock.
I listen to the Mancave Daily Radio from Radio.com. It's a good mix of lots of differently types of music. But nothing "girly". Like right now I'm listening to it at work. I just listened to Snoop Dog "The Next Episode", before that was The Foo Fighters "Best of You", right now it is The Cars "Candy-O" and next is Led Zepplin "Kashmir" and then Foster the People "Pumped up Kicks". Good mix of music if you ask me. I don't get tired of it and it's something that can be on in the background without me having to pay too much attention to it.

Check and see what major league batters listen too while they are waiting for the pitch, or what Tiger is listening too while addressing the ball, or what that Tebow guy is listening too while winding up to throw a pass. Yep, I'm an old guy and I prefer silence. I listen too my choices while relaxing in my chair sipping a martini.

I prefer a good jukebox. Nobody likes the same tunes and when playing I like a variety. I've never owned my own table so I have never been in a situation that called for me to d.j. my own music while playing pool.
GrooveShark is a good Internet site that has tons of good music. Check em out.
But if I did have to choose my own music, it would be Southern Rock, Blues and Old Country.
Play Lady Ga-Ga or Justine Beiber around me and I will kick you in the nutts!

2 Live Crew - We Want Some Pu**y
Usually listen to Pandora, if internet streaming isn't working well then just music on my phone.
Usually metalcore-type music, which I normally listen to - Killswitch Engage, Bullet for my Valentine, All That Remains, We Came As Romans, etc. Latest favorites are Saosin, Skylit Drive, Asking Alexandria. Nice thing about the music is it's loud and drowns out a lot of noise in the pool hall...
