Need Some Good Travelling Music
#1
Well, as some of you know, I'm off for a well deserved vacation to New Brunswick and I'm going to need some more tunes.

I have to basically keep it "clean" because I'll be bringing other people that do not like hard rock/metal/rap.

So I'm going through stuff and compiling some tunes and just wondering if anyone has any suggestions.

So far I've got the following:

Great Big Sea
The Tragically Hip
R.E.M.
The Police
Dave Matthews Band
Coldplay (regretful but withstandable)
Tom Petty
U2
Rush
John Mellencamp

Well, you guys know where I'm going with this... Any suggestions?

Not me, good ol CD player. I will probably look into a HDD/MP3 system or an Ipod with Alpine player.

If I had my choices of songs, I'd put on stuff from Billy Talent, EMINEM, 50 Cent, AC/DC, Garbage, Green Day, Linkin Park, GOB, RATM, The Offspring, Sum 41, etc, etc, etc.

What ever happened to "it's my car, my tunes, get out and walk if you don't like it". I'd be taking care of Numero Uno first. When you take their car on a long distance jaunt, they can pick.
