2013-07-28 19:05:46 - play list for round the rock wanted.
As you remeber a little group of SOLers will go round the south ireland rock in 2 weeks...
As it will be a nice trip of 5 to 7 days you are welcome to submit your musical proposal, for music to listen and to play...
personal recording live on board will be send to the more voted song eheh

Due to the noise level onboard classical or jazz music will be somehow difficult to listen to. Rock (sic!!!) Music and related noise productions are mandatory.

Of course, The Fastnet is something
"Once in a lifetime" - (Talking Heads) - a good starter.
Prestart procedure includes
"Holding the compass" (Family).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0ct7suhIgA
As Solent is a tricky water,
"Diggin in the dirt" (Peter Gabriel)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0C3DHp36zc or
"Do the Strand" (Roxy Music)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2yGudJ_BQ0
might be unwanted but neccessary - followed by
"Dirty Work" (Steely Dan) to clean up the mess.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghcsrblhn7A
Of course you will hope for:
"Lord, here comes the Flood" (Fripp/Gabriel)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNmYVHGkx9k
and somebody might respond:
"Tide is high" (Atomic Kitten)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8CMsQ-p1ls
Looking out for new weather from the west might need a
"Watcher of the Skies" (Genesis)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bETFh4eRdM8
and - related to the horse whisperer - a windwhisperer. We have one:
"Listening Wind" (Talking Heads)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEluoeMLTCI
At the Needles the fleed might get squeezed a bit so you will shout:
"Don't stand so close (to me)" (Police).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNIZofPB8ZM
Way of Right Problems have to be solved
"Urgent" (Foreigner).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JA6id4--BDg
On the long leg to the rock you will have time to meditate about
"The Water" (Leslie Feist)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpUoXG6JiO4
until the Chef is calling:
"Suppers Ready" (Genesis)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kORf_0uVTw
The night might start with some
"Kaltes Klares Wasser" (Malaria!)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAg4VmBY7so
and of course - the usual night calm. So you are
"Becalmed" (Eno)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QKEpoDYqdo and
"Waiting for the wind" (Spooky Tooth)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6KAYUXkXP4
At dawn it might get
"Frosti" (Björk)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-i1SqFJ3K8Q
but soon the new front will be in and you are becoming
"Raiders on the Storm" (Doors)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qRJIBtbc2c
Unfortune could bring some thunderstorms and
"St.Elmo's Fire" (Eno)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-3djUYgebU
and soon you feel like a
"A salty Dog" (Procul Harum)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7JBpRragNU
and be on the
"Road to Nowhere" (Talking Heads)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPQcnjlwtE4
and you would ask yourself:
"What have I done to deserve this" (Pet Shop Boys)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VtuZqQq1Hs
But then you see THE ROCK with his
"Eternal Flame" (Bangles)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwajTekSAcM
on
"The Lighthouse" (Eno/Byrne)
Rounding the magic point you will feel
"A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers" (Van der Graaf Generator)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asPDvjUYFy4
Make sure, you round it properly and not end in the
"Blue Lagoon" (Laurie Anderson)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CiSBD9dcoI
otherwise somebody might find out:
"This is not America" (Bowie)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygO6IeJResw
On the way back you might see
"Weird Fishes" (Radiohead)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdFqkhX0lN4
When everything works out and you are the leader, you will feel
"Lonely at the top" (Randy Newman)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlmGJQq3AlM
You might be in the mood to listen to
"Oh Fortuna" (Carl Orff) if nothing else could help for victory.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdIpoE2LEps
Afterwards in the club the main thing starts:
"Sailors Tale" - here presented by King Crimson.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtbtr4_o-lM

PS: As myself, this list might be a bit outdate, but still worth listening to every single piece :-)

Here's a few of my favorite sailing songs.
Links to YouTube for checking out. There are a few others that I need to find.

I was going to start a new thread for sailing songs/music, but this works just as well.

Hope you enjoy. ;-)

Mad Max by Balloon 2026 - Across the Outback


Mad Max Rockatansky doesn’t get to go in a balloon in any of the Legends of the Wasteland, and the Wasteland is not necessarily the Outback of Australia, but Mel Gibson and film director George Miller indubitably are… of Australia, and ballooning as reconnaissance is a main feature of the Mad Max spin-off video game, so here goes: 1500nm in a balloon from somewhere on the edge of the Outback, Goondiwindi, to cross a finish line at Fitzroy Crossing, somewhere on the edge of the Outback!

Roma Giraglia Regata 2026

Our eighth race of nine to celebrate all things Mediterranean - fickle winds, history and olive oil – is another buddy-up; this one with the Circolo Nautico Riva di Traiano . Founded in 1984, as the new Traiano yacht Harbour neared completion, the Circola since then has developed into one of the major yachting competition centres in Italy, and next to the 450nm Roma per Tutti (which SOL buddied earlier in the year), the Roma Giraglia Regata is its other headline offshore event. First raced in 2005, the 210nm course takes competitors from Traiano to a rock on the inside of the Ile de la Giraglia off the northern tip of Corsica and back to the Italian mainland for a finish in the bay of Santo Stefano. We’re racing this one in our Class 40!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Masirah to Chagos


Having crossed, re-crossed and re-re-crossed the Convergence Zones of the Pacific and the Atlantic, we now face our second crossing of the Convergence Zone of the World’s third great equator-spanning sea, the Indian Ocean, taking us from the channel between Masirah Island and the Oman mainland to the Chagos Archipelago. It’s 1900nm and we’ll be sailing our very fine Archer 78, and won’t mention that both locations (of departure and arrival) are heavily militarized and the why’s and what next’s concerning that – mindful as always of SOL Netiquette.
