103 Guest Blog: Masinga's Take on the Ragby Soundtrack, Thoughts?

Now, as you all know, this was my inaugural year riding an entire Ragby.  Y’all also know that I rode it my way.  

One of the things I’ve noticed is that none of the Beavers ride with a speaker blaring like other folks.  It’s fun to pull up next to another rider who has some killer tunes coming out of their Bluetooth enabled speaker that conveniently fits in their water bottle holder (I’ve actually got one of those myself). 

Even more impressive are the “amps” made out of coolers.  They make for a really awesome Doppler affect, warping the music as they pull away from my slow train chugging along.  Who doesn’t love cozying up next to a rider with some sweet music that gets your groove on the bike going and sticking with them for a couple miles?  

Then as we Beavers pull in to town and find the party, we shake our Beaver tails to the finest beats laid down by the best Ragby DJs on flat bed trailers.  

So I started a list last year, we’ll call it the Beaver Playlist.  Now, I started this list early in the week and realized as I went back to write this post, I kind of forgot about the list.  My last addition was on Day 3, oops.  Here’s what I, and some of the other Beavers, included over those days.  What else would you, dear readers, add?

It’s Your Thing – Isley Brothers

Timber – Pitbull, featuring Kei$ha

Club Can’t Handle Me  - Flo Rida, featuring David Guetta

I love It – Susan Mixx

My Songs Know What you Did in the Dark – Fall Out Boy

Cruise (remix) – Florida Georgia Line, featuring Nellly

Jump Around – House of Pain

I’m So Fancy – Iggy Azalea (Too Much’s theme song)

Get Luck – Daft Punk

Old Time Rock n’ Roll – Bob Seger

Cowboy – Kid Rock

Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough – Michael Jackson

Call Me Maybe – Carly Rae Jepson (There’s a tattoo!!)

Shoop – Salt & Peppa


Blurred Lines  - Robin Thicke (Goldie finding music)

A Note from Norman: I was just thinking I should buy a bluetooth speaker for the ragby. And, I have to make an important addition, since you hear it 12,437 times per ragbrai:
