Summer Playlist

[Incogneto]

As most of you are well aware, I am about 40 days out from a long trip to Eastern Europe.

Well, with a trip like this, come MANY hours of train rides, so I have been trying to fill my iPod with all sorts of music....but now I want to make a cool 'summer' type of playlist. Songs that are relaxing, put a smile on your face, and you can chill out to, or fall asleep to.

here are a couple I have so far:
Weezer - Island in the Sun
Red Hot Chili Peppers - Can't Stop
butthole surfers - pepper
The Verve - Bittersweet Symphony
YellowCard - Ocean Avenue
Jimmy Eat World - The Middle
Ben Folds Five - Rockin the Subburbs.
Green Day - Basket Case
Phantom Planet - California
Smashing Pumpkins - 1979

You guys have any thoughts for OTHER songs I can add to this list?
thanks in advance.

Acdc - Thunderstruck

and all the songs they play at Flames games.

All right now - Free
Carry on Wayward Sun - Kansas
D'yer Maker - Led Zepellin
Killer Queen - Queen
Bang a gong - T. Rex
Mysterious Ways - U2
Life is a Highway - Tom Cochrane

Eagles - Hotel California

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Krakow, Poland
Budapest, Hun
Brasov, Rom
Bucharest, Rom
Vienna, Austria
Lubaljana, Slovinia
Bratslava, Slovakia
Everywhere in Croatia
and possibly Turkey and Bulgaria.

Any suggestions?

I was in Czech Republic, Armenia, and Georgia. I would really recommend trying to get down to the Caucasus if you can. It's really an unreal place. I wouldn't recommend going to Georgia by yourself, but Armenia is totally safe for single Western travellers and is probably one of the coolest places I have ever been.

Taylor is the best summer song of all time............I could listen to that in the sun on the beach for days on end....good call
