Pool music

Check out "Happy Schnapps Combo" for some upbeat tunes. If you like the Chicago Bears, you won't like one song for sure.

I am looking to replace my lost Bose buds ( which btw were AWESOME to say the least. Anyone that does not mind wired ear buds owes it to themselves to go to a Bose store and check these out! IMHO, the Bose have the absolute best sound quality of ANYTHING on the market and completely BLOW AWAY any and every other set available today!!! ) . There a little pricy at just under $100 bucks but WE'LL worth it if ya consider yourself an audiophile. I'm sure either with upcoming a Christmas sales they will be on sale in the store or you can probably find cheaper online somewhere if you look BUT WORD OF CAUTION : be extremely careful where you buy electronicsfrom online ! !! The cheap Chinese counterfeit junk is everywhere, especially electronics and is as rampant as ever!!! I actually stay away from online electronic purchases because of this reason. Just as an example, we all know how,popular BEATS are with everyone. You literally have about a 50 / 50 chance of actually getting the real ones when bought online. It's so bad that even the most respected retailers are often ties selling the counterfeit junk honestly without even knowing themselves. Aside from often getting them directly from a reputable wholesalers, shady people go and buy a bunch of the real deals and then return the Chinese junk ones in their place. Unbenounced to the retailer, they just get restocked and resold to someone else.

With that being said , what type of wireless buds did you go with? Can you please provide any details about them such as what type, price, how long are they good for constant use on a full charge and how long does a full charge take from completely dead? Thanks in advance. I have not done so yet, but I am ginger to check to see if by chance Bose makes a wireless set too ( I kinda thinking yes but don't recall seeing any last time I was in the Bose store.

I listen to all music... my favorite artists are Trent Reznor (NIN and multiple movie scores) and Maynard James Keenan (Tool, A Perfect Circle, Puscifer) and on occasion I will put on a playlist from one of them while shooting.

A lot of time it's something more chill. I like a lot of Trip Hop music. Artists like Portishead, Chet Faker, Lovage, Massive Attack, Nightmares on Wax...

Here are a few tracks that are some of my favorites...

It really depends on my mood, Tool, QOTSA, , Primus, APC, Puschifer when I want upbeat stuff.
Suzanne Vega, Sting, REM, Peter Gabriel etc when I want to relaxe more.
Sometimes I listen to podcasts like Sam Harris or Dan Carlin`s Hardcore history.

I play in loud room - hard for me to fade the music.
So I got an excellent set of earbuds that connect wireless to my phone and block out other sounds..

So this is for people who do this - what music or sounds, for that matter, do you like best for playing or practicing, I know 2 guys - 1 likes country the other sam hill podcasts.:wink:

I got a tape of traditional southwest flute music played by a guy on youtube Carlos Nakai, it's not for everyone but it makes me so calm it's awesome.

At the best pool room in Seattle, Russian Dave only played blues on the
jukebox at a level 2 on the scale of 1 to 10. You could hear the sound of
the balls clicking over the music. Very, very good environment.

If Dave heard anyone banging balls, they would be warned once, and then
thrown out. This was in 2004.
 
I long for the good 'ol days when guys could concentrate on the competitiveness, stragegy and mechanics of the game without being bombarded by rap-crap or hip-slop garbage at volumes so loud that it would affect the outcome of the game. I'd prefer to hear the banter and laughter of fellow players and the real music - the sound of collisions on a 9 foot table.

Heck, the only pool hall in our Des Moines area won't even allow headphones or earbuds to block out the raucous during a tournament. How idiotic is that?
