An absolute classic. Definitely the pick of the Blackadder series. Those English sure do have a fine sense of humour.

I prefer the second series set during the Elizabethan/ Francis Drake era myself. Very talented man Rowen Actkinson , loved the Mr bean series. The movie was too long . Dave Allen the Irish comedian is a favourite from when I was a kid .

There is some 80's I can abide but not much.

I listen to a lot of 70s and 80s music, but not that crap. But you just can't best a well trained tenor backed by a a full orchestra.
This gent was perhaps the best ever.

Skid Row, Guns and Roses, Ozzy, Ted Nugent, rob Zombie, linkin Parks (early stuff) and a bit of Alice cooper I often think I was born in the wrong era I struggle to relate to all the new age Sh#T but thats just me.

I do also listen to the Australian hunting Podcast has a fair bit of content and worthy of a plug.

I don’t reload yet but may do in the future. I do play music while I’m doing other stuff. Anything hard rock, heavy guitar based songs and a few guitar musicians like yngwie malmsteen, Michael Angelo Batio and even Tommy Emmanuel. Not sure if you need calm music for reloading or not! Please tell me you guys use Spotify and not cd’s, records or cassettes. Spotify changes everything. For those unfamiliar with it, you just type your favourite band or genre and every song is there. I have a couple of Bluetooth adapters connected to stereos and all you need is your phone or tablet. No need to buy cd’s anymore.

Its Loverboy's 'Turn Me Loose'...the studio version...production magnificence...!!

Bloody love it...!!!...

Why...?...
Well, firstly...Im a drummer so forgive me here---But listen carefully, & you'll hear almost every single chord &/or note in this song is played with a difference...its also a little odd-ball for a typical commercial pop hit in that the lead break (guitar) carry's on after the lead break...

And...its a big guitar sound...!!!

Bloody love it...!!!

Except that i had to slide the chair backwards just then to do the air guitar for the lead break... :lol:

So what do you all listen too...?...Give us some songs you like boys...

Now im gonna crank some pure production genius & let Manfred Man's full length version of Bruce Springsteins 'Blinded By the Light' grace the airways in this room.. :clap:

I listen to my press I don't just watch what I'm doing I listen pick up more problems that way then looking no music for me I must be special.
