fuck a bunch of internet jukeboxes. those things mean that if I am there and we're partying, someone can interrupt with whatever bullshit ass Celinie Dion song they want.

jukeboxes are second only to drink prices, waitress-ass shape and how often the place cleans their taps regarding how legit a bar is. just got back from a place with My Bloody Valentine, The Kinks and Big Star on the jukebox. They will be receiving more of my money. pinball place I go to also has bad brains, nick cave and undertones on their jukebox. they also receive my cash.

internet jukebox means I will pee on your face.

I like internet jukeboxes. I'm the guy who breaks up your little Hinder/Papa Roach/Buckcherry lovefest with some much needed Slayer. I also like picking really long songs (Tool's "Pushit," Ween's "LMLYP" or Jane's Addiction's "Three Days," for example) to get my money's worth and keep the Van Hagar at bay a little longer.

I completely agree with Mike. Internet jukeboxes are outstanding. Picking the 10-minute songs is always clutch. Speaking of Tool, I like to play Third Eye live off the Salival album, as I did last week on the Hill. Sometimes the internet jukeboxes screw you on the long songs, though. I played Wolf Parade's Kissing the Beehive (a 10 min song) and it cut out halfway through.

"LMLYP" is pretty much my go-to track for internet jukeboxes. Watching the looks on people's faces as they slowly realize they're being subjected to a 9-minute ode to cunnilingus is priceless. I'm not above playing "The End" by the Doors either...

I'll go hangout with a buddy from work on Monday nights and watch him throw in a dart league. There's always THAT team of guys...the angry late-20s/early-30s guys that have the douche playlist picked out. It's so funny because you wait to hear the next song and they never fail to play stuff that THOSE guys would play...a lot bad modern rock, the token hip hop song or two, the cheesy country drinking songs and it never fails that a Gaga or Rihanna song pops in there. I don't mind the onslaught of overplayed classic rock or some good metal...you get that more times that not. In the bars where you get several leagues playing on the same night...you get a mixed bag...some good and some awful.

Shoalz, which bar is this?

you guys are more wrong than Wrongy McWrongerson.

The internet jukebox isn't about you being able to play anything, its about all the other tards in the bar being able to play anything! A regular jukebox varies from bar to bar, and you can choose your bar in accordance with what is in the jukebox.

the Sundown Saloon in Boulder used to have a fairly epic JB. i was fucking the waitress, Betsy, too. However, it's not 1996 and everyone listens to Johnny Cash Ring of Fire these days.

The thing is, even the best "regular" jukebox is going to have some shit music on it, and the tards are inevitably going to gravitate to that shit music. Even if it's all good music, the tards are going to pick out the most overplayed songs from that selection of good music. What it comes down to is, I have a lot more "weapons" at my disposal to battle bad-music-loving tards on an internet jukebox than on a regular one. Until Lady Gaga and Nickelback start writing 10-minute songs, we music snobs will always hold the upper hand on an internet jukebox.

solid. another winner per spend is side 1 of Up On the Sun.

I just engaged in some jukebox warfare the other night. Some fucking mouth-breathers were playing (I shit you not) Lady Gaga, Shania Twain and Kings of Leon. I strolled right up, looked up "Bring it On" (an 8+ minute posse cut by the Geto Boys) and paid extra to make sure it played next. You can't do that on a regular jukebox...

on a regular jukebox, there is no shania or lady gaga.

depends on the jukebox, but you're more likely to find that tripe than the Geto Boys.

you know Gaga went to the same private school as Paris Hilton. she ain't exactly hardscarabble with a boozing beat the shit out of you father from Manchester turned to art rock.
