You live in the land of Amstel and you don't like beer? A travesty! 
A long time ago I was stationed in Münster Westfallen, and would cross the border often to get a glass or ten of Amstel. Now, you may ask how I was able to cross the border so easily. I found it simplified matters greatly if you turned up in a tank.

Favorite beer: Carlsburg - Goes with anything and hangovers less intense if at all.
Unfavorite beer: VB - makes me piss like a horse every pot*
Not a beer: Budweiser - No idea what it is, for sure though it's not beer.
* for non aussies: "pot" = small glass, go figure why they named a tiny cup after something much bigger; low self esteem?
Sin tack ear lol

If Anheuser-Busch would make ale, it would be a watered down version of this.

I think you mean, for All people, Aussie or not who aren't from Victoria and maybe South Australia. No pots here in New South Wales, it's a Schooner or a Middy and Pints and Half Pints if in Irish or English style pubs.

Aahh! Grolsch! Nectar of the Gods. Didn't know about it when I was single handedly* fighting off the entire Soviet army and keeping Europe free for democracy** - incidentally waaayy before Schengen.
As to your remarks about the tank, I figured you guys would've got used to it by now.
* There may have been a few others, but I really can't remember.
**How well did that work out now?

I thought tanks would be banned in the EC because none would ever meet the new emission standards.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

And why?
No, I'm not wondering what you're listening to at work and need some background noise, but rather what do you listen to when you really want to listen to music?
I grew up on the countryside in the seventies and eighties. And I of course grew up listening to seventies hard rock and eighties heavy metal. But boys that lives on the country side tend to have a natural affinity to cars and the belonging cultures thereof, so I suppose it's not a wonder that we ended up listening to a lot of rockabilly inspired music such as Hurriganes[^]. (All the Finnish readers will say yeah! Everyone else: What? And yes, they spelt it like that).
So take this background, add a sprinkle of punk and I guess it's a natural development for me to listen to Volbeat - The Bliss[^] at the moment.

I listen to a little of pretty much everything except country. Exclusion & PsoGnar - Intruder - YouTube[^] is what's playing at the moment  Great vocals and an overall amazing composition.

I wish they could drop the autotune.
|
|
|
|

I don't listen to many artists that use auto-tune so it never really bothers me, hehe. At least it's a little subtler than back when everyone discovered auto-tune and songs just sounded like Microsoft Sam for awhile

I do not exclude any genre, but appreciate extraordinary talent in any performance. Everything from classical through jazz, country, theatre, folk, rock, pop, rap, and all the sub-genres in between - if the performer presents something special, then it is appreciated and enjoyed. Having said that, my favourites are still the classic prog - stuff like Dire Straits, Pink Floyd, et al.
Cheers,
Mick

Ones upon a time I used to watch tv, then there was a program called Idol, this reminds me very much about it.
Idol was also one of the reasons I stopped watching tv.

The male singer won one of those Idol (xxx has talent) shows apparently.
These shows can be very funny though, check out the Penis Song on Americas got Tallent, its very funny.

Buddy Holly's Everyday and Ben E King's Spanish Harlem made it on to my mixes playlist even though somewhat before my time. Mostly 80's rock with a few local band's tracks that remind me of uni times.
On those days when one's normal playlist just isn't hitting he spot (i.e. keeps choosing those tracks you really aren't in the mood for) throwing on the country / western streaming radio seems to fill the silence but doesn't evoke/enhance any mood. Odd thing is I never listened to it (in fact ran way from it) when I was younger. Caught that bug from an auntie (non English speaking to boot) who would throw on the c&w whenever she did housework; find with c&w you can get on with your work and never feel like stopping what you're doing to hit 'next track'.
