SHAKEDOWN HIGHWAY ROAD TRIP MIX
I was asked via Twitter by @fuschigroan to make a playlist of suggestions for her 6 hour road trip over the July 4 holiday. Me being me, I douched around until the absolute last minute deadline. So, I picked out a bunch of semi-random songs from the top of my head for numerous reasons. Some are my favorite songs to sing along to. Some are mellow, some are rockin'. Some aren't even my favorite songs by the bands, they just happen to be road anthems. Some of them are old favorites, some are new favorites, some I hope you guys will discover and enjoy. They're in no particular order, because that would just be rude. Are there any you would add? Any you hate or love? Why?
