Greece trip - 10 hr flight - 07-21-2008, 04:12 AM

Hi guys! So I am going to Greece next month for my friend's wedding. It's like a 10 hour flight one way, and unless I get some Ambien or equivalent prescription medication to knock me out for an extended period of time, I am going to need some music and movies to dump onto my iPod (since I am now a proud owner of a 1 TERABYTE - you hear Vik?? - external hard drive, I can download for months non-stop!) Any suggestions, folks?

I like funky music, if you haven't learned that about me yet - check out Felix da Housecat Nina Simone Sinnerman remix - isn't it great? Unfortunately I haven't come across 10 hours worth just yet. Also a "special friend" of mine promised me some movies, but I have a feeling I will have watched those way before my trip.

I am taking suggestions and trying ALL of them out - it's not like I am out of disk space anymore, right?

frunze, you need something like happy-go-lucky-beach-type music to get your ready for greece.

hope you are not just going to athens, it is hot and stuffy here, some forests (again) burning in
the distance, and all real greeks have left the city anyhow. no music will help here.

but for the trip, and the rest, why not try the LITTLE FEAT album that SQUASH54 has suggested
here today? or something else that would cheer you up on a flight, too: the two available albums
of FRESHLY GORUND? puts you in a good right away - surviving any flight attendant.

greets - henry

Just visualized Frunze listening to happy-go-lucky-beach-type music and me really made me laugh

This girl needs something with a bite - like French rap (without knowing a lick of French, mind u).

Actually, I need something for the TRIP itself - the 10 hour long flight. I am thinking even movies possibly. That's 10 hours there and 10 back, mind you - I don't even know my battery would last that long!

Mine certainly would not - movies take up far more battery life than does music. They do have in-flight programs, you know? Some airlines are better than others
