If this a lounge then where is the jukebox?
Virtual drinks served up often enough, cheap advice even oftener, what about some tunes? An earlier thread about fave fem. singers inspired me here. I will plug the first quarter in, I hope you enjoy this, I also hope to enjoy your virtual selections afterwords.
http://www.giantradio.com/cookie.html scroll down a bit and select song: "Voodoo Doll" on right hand side. (warning: moderate rock and roll song)
No I am not trying to plug this band, they broke up awhile ago. I enjoy music and this IS a lounge.... there are other music downloads out there, I promiss to listen to whatever you wish to play....

11. Some of my best friends still listen to the Kinks....
...so that was my failure at wit, we are equal now! (Besides the Kinks do have their much deserved place in the annals of Rock)
I would be interested in those downloads.... My primary thrust with this thread was as a "lounge-jukebox-thing". Folks are always offering up drinks around here and I see the ubiquitous: who is your fave band-musician-singer and etc. so I thought what the hell, offer up a real song. I was actually hoping someone would download a nice lounge-lizard song, perhaps something obscure like Katerina Valenti or more upbeat like Gale Garnet, maybe a country song from Marty Robbins, I offered up a soft punk number and so far I have seen a metal number......
Sorry about the 24hr. delay, I had a family medical emergency last night while pitching this thread. (Puppy will live, wallet is $350 lighter and I have not slept yet).

2. I have my own personal juke box
I'd share, but I don't think you guys would like it. There's nothing but heavy metal on it.

4. I worked in the local music industry.......
...heard plenty of heavy metal... I like that too, especially if it is from a local band, often times they are very talented but get no exposure, so please share if you wish.

7. Yep thats metal alright.....
...liked Temple of Within best btw... I have had "head-bangers whiplash" from hangin with bands like that in my prior life. Off to Germany soon where they should do very well. (They sure LOVE that stuff there.) Sorry for the 24hr. delay in the listen, we had a severe family emergency while I was posting this thread last night, had to bail abruptly. (+$350 vet bill)

8. I'm glad you like them
I have their latest album and I can't say enough good things about them. They were getting air time on the radio with the single that I recommended. It didn't go too far, but I think it is a good accomplishment for them.

12. Permission to pass that link on....
... to one of my metal lovin gal-pals. She is a booking agent for a smaller club, (too small for these guys), but I know she will love this all the same. (I like surprising her with my "discoveries")

13. plug yer own qtrs in then.......
Here is a link to Giant Radio. The songs are free, no signing up, giving up e-mail adresses or anything like that, just choose a song and away you go. These are all NW. bands. I discovered I can play the songs and interact right here in the DU simultaniously.
http://www.giantradio.com/music.html
Here is some pleasant soft rock I will reccomend: go to link, scroll down to Godot, click that and play Hello Godot then close window, bringing you back to here. You can play an entire bands list if you like then come back here and party on!
