Cigars and Music

[jacknife]

Just kicking back on a Friday night smoking a RyJ Ex #4 and listening to some Blue Mitchell jazz. Nothing better than some good music and a smoke on a cold friday night! So what music do you listen to when you fire one up?

 

[Randyb1]

If I had a choice it would Blues, but a mixture of about anything "except Rap"
will do.

 

[Eshaw99]

B.B., SRV, Howlin' Wolf, John Lee Hooker, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Albert King, Allman Bros., Skynyrd, Jimi Hendirx

Stuff like that

 

[BrownDevil]

Poncho Sanchez, Celia Cruz, Compay Segundo, Tito Puente, Arturo Sandoval, Paulito, Abriam Ferrer, and lots more of good Salsa, Latin Jazz, & afro-cuban music.

Depends upon the mood. I could easily pop in an '80s hairband like Def Leppard and have a great time. I also like some heavy stuff like Alice in Chains. On the mellower side, I'd take Norah Jones or Bob Dylan. As long as my old-@$$ brother in law doesn't pop in some weird 70's greatest hits thing, I'm good to go. Don't believe Randyb1, he's all into Outkast and Wu-Tang Clan. :laugh: :laugh:

I like to listen to jazz these days. Other days, it's 50 cent and snoop dogg.

You're a bit younger than me. I just can't enjoy a good cigar while listening to "drop it like it's hot" I can understand listening to Jazz. I guess for me, smoking a cigar is like a Zen-meditation experience. Studying the smoke, wrapper, and identifying different flavors. I'll have to lighten up more and check out 'ol Snoop.

LOL! I will listen almost to anything and tend to listen to the more mellow music when puffing on a smoke. When I smoke with my father we to listen to oldies but goodies. :thumbs:

What's the deal Leebo?

Once you achieve FOG status, are you only allowed to listen to a bunch of dead guys when smoking cigars? ???

 

[jacknife]

anything "except Rap"

That and smoooth jazz, yuk! Well, I guess I'd put country in that yuk category also!

I listen to the music of nature. Outdoors sounds as they come. Birds preferred but this is a strange region here, not many birds singing at all. But all the visual treats are music for the eye, so I'm enjoying these hours very much.
