OT: Best tailgating music?
As we near the upcoming season I always use the weekend before to brush off my tailgating gear and make sure everything is in good shape. Just wanted to get the Mgoblog community's take on some good tailgating music while a make a new play list for this year.

Of course any upbeat, "rock jams" type music is good to get the party started. But, I think you always need to through in some Ufer to keep it real....
One week boys!
Go Blue!
August 27th, 2011 at 1:43 PM ^
and it is amazing!
August 27th, 2011 at 3:49 PM ^
I converted that as well and put it on my "Tailgate CD", this along with Bo's Team Speech, and a quick little 13 second run down of Brad Nessler's "Touchdown Manningham!, MIchigan Wins!", that always gets people going, also randomly start the CD off with Dewey Oxburger introducing himself from Stripes.
Actual songs I recommend would be Welcome to the Show by Saliva and Especially in Michigan by Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and you can never go wrong with any AC/DC song.
August 27th, 2011 at 7:52 PM ^
of course I knew what I was going to hear, but I had to click it anyway. Damn that never gets old and still gives me goosebumps to hear Ufer's voice crack as AC breaks that tackles and heads to the endzone.
Definitely agree! Whatever you choose, add this (and a few other calls) after ever few songs.
I'm sitting in Korea but damn! would I love to be sitting at a good tailgate, listening to good tunes and UFER calls while eating USA tailgate food and drinking Honey Brown bear. Fuck it, I'd be smoking American Spirits cigarettes probably too. Screw my health.
August 27th, 2011 at 1:42 PM ^
I prefer wtka and their countdown to kickoff show.
August 27th, 2011 at 1:48 PM ^
The Bob Ufer CD's are incredible too, perfect for early morning tailgate.
August 27th, 2011 at 1:52 PM ^
Absolutely agree.
August 27th, 2011 at 4:47 PM ^
Bob Ufer all the way. Why even bother with anything else?
August 27th, 2011 at 2:04 PM ^
I love hearing wtka on the way to AA before a game. Listening to Sam, Ira and all the drunk people in the bud light victors lounge get me fired up.
August 27th, 2011 at 1:43 PM ^
Hoobastank.
August 27th, 2011 at 1:44 PM ^
On the type of tailgating you are trying to achieve and how much of a party you want it to be... music choice is therefore crucial to the overall atmosphere and what you are trying to accomplish.
August 27th, 2011 at 1:51 PM ^
I like Simon and Garfunkel for atmosphere purposes.
Never been a fan of "pump up" music. Always thought the occasion should be sufficient for thymos purposes. Clarity of mind is more important if you're an athlete IMHE (at least that was my experience in high school).
And for tailgating - it's Saturday! Time to relax.

Throw in a little long beach dub/sublime and I'm there!
August 27th, 2011 at 2:06 PM ^
Tremendous mix, lots of different genres there.
August 27th, 2011 at 2:34 PM ^
This list is awesome. Appeals to many audiences and there are a lot of recognizable songs. Props to you good sir.
August 27th, 2011 at 3:33 PM ^
My OCD-ness went bonkers when you went from "artist - track name" to "track name - artist" and then back again throughout. haha
August 27th, 2011 at 1:46 PM ^
I think as long as you are playing generally good rocking music you are pretty safe, heck get Jerry Sprague to play your tailgate, thats the best solution, we have done it the last few years.
But for the love of god dont do this, and then post it on the internet, embarrassing your university for all eternity:
August 27th, 2011 at 1:52 PM ^
Embarassing lol

I hear there is a new song by Pop Evil...
August 27th, 2011 at 1:53 PM ^
I don't think it will make the cut... The UMMB has enough classics to run that one off the play list...
August 27th, 2011 at 1:57 PM ^
August 27th, 2011 at 2:01 PM ^
The music in this is horrendous, but lloyd brady is @ 2:02 wearing a garret revis jersey, which makes it all the better...

That sound paired with "Hollaback Girl" on repeat is the Grand Unification Theory Incarnate
August 27th, 2011 at 2:04 PM ^
"Hey Love Crusader I want to be your space invader" I converted this to MP3 just for $hi#s and giggles
August 27th, 2011 at 2:16 PM ^
You can kick it off with the Rolling Stone's "Rock's OFF" (possibly the greatest opening track of any record - ever...).
August 27th, 2011 at 3:59 PM ^
That's a damn good album.
August 27th, 2011 at 2:17 PM ^
Sweet bro!
<br>
<br>Seriously what's wrong with either sports radio, other games or the victors?
August 27th, 2011 at 2:20 PM ^
Red Hot Chili Peppers for sure.
August 27th, 2011 at 2:20 PM ^
Red Hot Chili Peppers for sure.
August 27th, 2011 at 2:25 PM ^
What is the point of starting this thread? Are you so incapable of making a decision that you need the help of a bunch of random strangers on the internet to help you decide what fucking music to listen to? Dude make a decision and go with it. If you have enough booze the music won't matter anyways.
August 27th, 2011 at 2:59 PM ^
