Thought we might provide some creative energy for show openings or closings. My ideas (so far):

-Locomotive Breath

-Blue Sky

-Willin'

-Can't you hear me knockin' (just kidding)

My only rationale is that these are songs I enjoy listening to in the car.

Others? Thoughts? Mac?

any song relating to giving a mouse a beatdown...

Before I name mine, I will admit that it's not the longest intro. However, it starts with a bang and with the marvels of technology, the sound man could cut it up to make it longer by using the solo or by repeating the intro itself: "Bulls on Parade" by Rage Against the Machine. You could even keep the opening "Come with it now!" as a welcoming to the show.

May seem too obvious, but since it's called "The Afternoon Saloon" how about "One Bourban, One Shot & One Beer" by G. Thorogood?
May have to get this passed by the mouse first.

I think we are coming up with songs for Mac's new show Jeff...quit living in the past.

Killing in the Name by rage would be sweet...lots of bleeps though.

Reading is a skill that I sometimes don't possess. So maybe I choose to be a coward and a loser.

Mac's open: EJ's "Bitch is back" ...of course that would only work for about a week.
Close: He can use what I use for my WIIT show....The Doors "Soul Kitchen". The last verse is: "Well the clock says it's time to close now. I really want to stay here all night...all night...ALL NIGHT!!!!" Does anyone in real radio ever use that track?

Bulls on Parade's intro is about 40 seconds. More than adequate, though having a sound man extraordinaire polish it up wouldn't hurt, either, if it needed to be longer. And really, who doesn't need for it to be polished up or longer...

How about, "Endless Love"?

Soundbytes from 'Up The Academy'

"Alive" from Pearl Jam would be fitting.

Perhaps some Dire Straits...

Heavy Fuel?

In keeping with the RATM suggestions, I think "Calm Like A Bomb" is fitting for Mac.

In retrospect, Slipknot's "Everything Ends" would have been appropriate for the last MJH show.
