11 November 2011: Nigel Tufnel Day!
« on: November 10, 2011, 05:24:28 PM »
11 tunes that need to be played to 11.  Get your requests in!

Reminds me of the J. Geils album note:  "Made loud to play loud".
and any fool knows
a dog needs a home
a shelter
from pigs on the wing

The Stone Roses - "I Am The Resurrection" is my choice.  Good one to test out new speakers, headphones, etc.

Some FBer suggested...I kid you not...Journey's "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin'." One person's "eleven" is another person's "two".   ::)

You got DAT right. I'm thrilled and honored to have AL use my idea but man there's some yeesh-worthy cheeze in that suggestions thread.

OTOH this could be the day that lattegirl gets her some Metallica.

I played the youtube clip of the "it goes to 11" scene for all my classes!

Hey, smart move selecting more current songs.  AL's gonna have to play one from this decade, right?

Someone who suggested Rush also suggested "Our Lips Are Sealed."  M'kay.

This is such a great concept (thanks, RGM), but I fear it's going to be very predictable like the guitar heroes set from this past summer, so I'm prepared for a lot of dinosaur rock.

I could definitely see "Sweet Home Alabama" being played.

But then again, AL has generally put a surprise or two into these 'specialty' sets, so I shouldn't be too pessimistic.

Actually, BOC's "Godzilla" wouldn't be a bad choice.   ;D

I tossed out two songs I always enjoyed playing loud in my younger years: Lou Reed's Rock & Roll (off Rock & Roll Animal, natch) and Todd's Initiation. I figure both of those have a good chance of catching her eye, and the Lou might be well known enough to slide under DC's radar.
Let's get right to it.

...And what are the very first words one hears in Sweet Home Alabama?
