Hehehe. They are probably doing what both of the gyms I've worked in do -
get five cds and leave them in there for weeks at a time :-P If you think
it's bad when you're only there three hours a week, imagine being there 40
hours ;-) We tried playing the radio for a while when the cd player was
broken. The ladies only liked it when we played Nova969 (dance & techno) or
2DayFM (mainstream pop). I tried to switch to TripleM (more rock) or
TripleJ (more alternative, usually) sometimes, but they complained about
that too. Though I did have one lady ask me to play some Ozzy Osbourne, so
they're not all lost.

Heheh. What's even funnier is that in about 10 years Pantera *will*
be "good, old-fashioned rock music." ;-)

As with any other form of music, there's good techno, there's bad techno, and some people just can't tech no for an answer...
Sorry!
But, being a progressive enthusiast, I also try not to limit myself to the technical side of things. SOme good trance is just what one needs from time to time to hit that higher space, as much as any good prog, funk, or fusion.
All I'm sayin' is give techno (trance) a chance. (Granted, many gym rats prefer to crank the more clichi-ridden pumpin' dance music for their impression it leaves on the gym women, but who the hell would've guess that, lol)
Peace!

>devils? YOu can only serve one master....
Well, that's why I'm taking a break in two weeks, &
going to see a game :)
It's the end of concerts for me at the moment... I'm
way stressed & sick, so, no thanks! At least there's
no cigarette smoke at the game :)
How do you like your wings? I like them well crispy,
in BBQ sauce,
Alex
