More queues with music

Good point, but I don't care it would beat the heck out of the same recordings year after year.

A volume control would be nice. To Freakin Loud!!!

Yeah that would. In Magnums que opening day it was very loud. I bet a few others were bad too.

Dragster didn't have any music playing at all today in line. Raptor was playing some 80s rock. And while we're at it, the audio on the train wasn't working.

Millennium Force's queue when no DJ is present is terrible. Most people (other than a select few Point Buzzers) hate the computer music they play!

I like the Techno they play in the Millennium Force queue. I think it goes well with the ride. The other music they play besides that is alright though :)

I noticed that practically every queue that could have music playing opening weekend...had music playing with no DJ.

Millennium Force was playing poptronica I call it (electronic pop music), or how most of America sees it. Techno

I think Mantis had country music on........

If I recall lines didn't have music playing unless they had DJ's and I have only seen queues with music during the peak season.

I enjoy the different varieties of music. You have your millennium ride playing techno which is key I think :). What is more millenniumesque than techno music.

I MUST ADMIT! I LOVE YOUR WORD "millenniumesque" its a hilarious word!

I blame myself.

(this is a subtle nod to those who know who are reading this who have carried on the tradition.. thanks, I miss you guys.)

the music on the MF platform sounds like terry riley's 'a rainbow in curved air'.

i love most all electronic music, but i hate that handbag anthem club remix nonsense they play in the queue. good god, no wonder people hate "techno" (its not even techno).

it annoys me a lot.

Welcome to PointBuzz bachrodi. You might want to start here and especially here.

I do agree about the pop remix crap. While sometimes I hear a song that's not half bad, it is not techno, and is unfortunately what most people associate with techno.

I reread the rules. This is definitely a stricter forum, but I'm sure it keeps down on idiocy!

Most Americans think anything with a drum machine is techno...

Then in that case In the Air Tonight would qualify as techno to those people.

I was surprised to hear Miley Cyrus - See You Again on Raptor a few weeks ago! lol

Also, on Magnum:

Huey Lewis & the News - Power of Love

Belinda Carlisle - Heaven is a Place on Earth

Most Americans are too dumb to go out and discover what music they like instead of letting MTV and the radio tell them what to hear. :)

MTV still exists?

Didn't they used to play videos or something?

Naw, that's stupid. Why would they play videos? It's not like it's a music station or anything...

Surprisingly, MTV does air music videos from 3-6 AM during the week.

They also have MTV HITS and other sister channels that play nothing but music videos.

FUSE is the channel you wanna watch for music videos.

Hey I'm a radio host....And even I agree. Of course what I play is completely different from mainstream music.

I noticed that they started playing the Maverick queue music again.. I don't recall them playing it in the beginning of the season.
