Yeh You, the guy reading this,

I dont conciously listen to music when im climbing, however, sometimes I get 1 or 2 lines of a song in my head and it just goes over and over and.... It could be anything too, no particular style or song, gives me the shits if I dont lke the song.

Rap Metal - Body Count (fronted by Ice T) would be one example...

what about this poodle rock???
is it like when i dog does a turd in the sun??? and you are walking and you see this white thing on the ground and you think it is a rock and you kick it really hard and then it ends up inbetween your toes and in your thongs... man i hate when that happens...
but back to the point... what is poodle rock??

Does anyone else find they climb differently to the music they are climbing to (in some small ways) ??

I find when bouldering at home in small cave if I put on a little Jeff Buckly I end up traversing slowerly concentrating on movement and position, then I throw on a little infected mushroom or just something up tempo with a hardish beat, and I'm doing 6' Dyno's, dead points and or just any move that is likely to strain a muscle...... ; )

Outdoors music is a no no..... Indoors i think music is totally fine in the background.....

Cheers.

Poddle Rock aka Hair Metal - Guns N' Roses, Cinderella, Tesla, Poison, Scorpions, Whitesnake, Motley Crue, and more! They had huge teased bleached hair held up by copouis amounts of hairspray. Mid 1980s (before my time - honestly!)

p.s. I'll let Hexy dredge up the required poodle rock pics.

Mozart? Bach? Handel?

How does one go past the likes of
Gene Pitney, Burt bacaract, Kahmal and Rolf Harris.

if I'm feeling radical a good burst of Suzie Quattro or Pat benetar really does the job

but when Im climbing the ice
how does one surpass the immortal

MP3 players....get to listen to your fav tunes while climbing without effecting others at the crag.
Very motivating when working your hard project.
