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. ;-)

Newport to Annapolis 2025


The Newport to Annapolis race, first held in 1947, is one of the most historic and well-known US East Coast blue water races. Linking two seaports dating from the US nation's birth, Annapolis and Newport, the race contrasts the country's largest estuary, the Chesapeake Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. Since 1969, the route has run from Annapolis through the Chesapeake Bay to Newport. The SOLers will sail 470nm in their Carkeek40s in the original direction from Newport to Annapolis, including the Chesapeake, which is such a daunting challenge that the 1997–98 Whitbread Round the World Race for the Volvo Trophy added it to the course, as did the Volvo Ocean Race in 2002 and 2006.

Transat à Deux 2025

Above you see a single-handed sailor semi-foiling his Beneteau Figaro III to the horizon. It is in fact Ireland’s Sailor of the Year and the overall winner of last year’s Solitaire du Figaro, Tom Dolan. Somehow, we got our hands on a polar for the Class, and rather than trying to surreptitiously track Tom and his mates in the 2025 edition of the Solitaire, sailing rather-short, single-handed legs across the Celtic Sea and Biscay, we thought we’d see how our virtual craft would fare on the Class’s double-handed 3900nm Trans-Atlantic, from somewhere in Brittanny to somewhere in the Caribbean via somewhere in the Canaries. Allez, mes braves!

Sinbad by Balloon 2025 - Toamasina to Baia de l'Oiseau


You may recall that when last we visited Madagascar in the company of Sinbad, the Sultan commanded our intrepid inspirator to seek out fabled islands where in Summer the sun barely set. We did and we returned but the Sultan wasn’t happy with Sinbad’s report, so here we go again, now by SOL Balloon instead of sailing vessel. Expect to be in the air for at least 2100nm and depending on how the wind brings us, anything between two weeks and two months before we shall descend at the Sultan’s given coordinates!
