its summertime, lots of roadtrips.
you need music that accentuates the ride, and also keeps you awake.
its been awhile for me -- but i was always a fan of Screaming blue Messiahs for driving music.
but for driving around town upstate, i usually have something like Nightmares on Wax or Kruder & dorfmeister, because its got a groove and the lyrics are almost non existent.
my favorite song for late night driving is Pale Green Ghosts by John Grant.
there are dozens of remixes and they all make it that much more spooky.
the song feels like its achieves its opening lyric:
"Back then I often found myself
Driving on the road at night,
And the radio was broadcasting the ocean."
listen to this song, and you'll wish you were driving
what do you find to be your best road trip music and why?
Cant just be your favorite music - has to be what makes driving more enjoyable
(especially at night)

@wilbner What was the best prank you’ve ever pulled?
We celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary yesterday.
It entailed the usual cards (with scratch-offs from the cats) and dinner at Greg Norman's Australian Grille.
When we got done eating, I asked the Frau "Do you actually think I should get by with a few cards, lotto tickets, and dinner to celebrate our 50th anniversary?"
She said all was good. Then I pulled the ring out of my pocket with the explanation on the scroll.
"Your Ring
The blue sapphire:
Signifies the birth of our marriage in September.
It is “natural” since our fit together is such.
The circular shape designates our never-ending love.
The star indicates your love that guides me.
The white gold band:
Expresses the purity of our love.
The five diamonds:
Show how clear our love shines.
Denote the five decades we’ve been married."
The tears started rolling, and I told her I wasn't serving her divorce papers. 🤣
