Ymo, your attempt to rectify the situation has been noble. Way to take one for the team! :))

Not watching (not really a baseball fan), but I hear that the local team and their mascot, the Rally Squirrel, are doing well.

Does it have to be old school? Can't really help you there, except maybe suggest some doors or hendrix. "People are strange" would be a good one.

More modern, I'm diggin My Chemical Romance, and Florence + the Machines these days. Incubus, and Killers have some good, hard-rockin songs as well.
As an aside - the lead singer of My Chemical Romance (and his brother the bassist) are my wife's cousins.

Oh goodness... Too many to list.... A classic Firebird needs classic rock.

Allmans: Blue Sky, heck just play all of Eat a Peach and Live at Fillmore
Skynyrd: Freebird (too obvious but so what)
Stones: Can't You Hear Me Knockin', Midnight Rambler
CCR: Fortunate Son, Penthouse Pauper, Suzy Q
Springsteen: Cadillac Ranch, Born To Run

That's pretty much the direction I would go.

Sad, but =)) . I thought about you, Ozzie, and CB&B during the game. We made a nice run in the 4th quarter, but it was too little, too late.

Ooh, good direction. I'd also throw in some by The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again, I Can See for Miles.

Of course, any car as sweet as Ymo's also needs "I can't drive 55" on the playlist.

I just realized I don't have any CCR on my iPod.

I do have G.T.O.(sometimes known as Lil' GTO) and 409.

I do know of My Chemical Romance, but similar to CCR I don't have them on my iPod. Going to today's show in Florence, KY my playlist will be very Springsteen heavy.
