I have to go with one of the Bourne movies, probably the first one.

As tempting as it is to go for a 'car' movie, or even a movie about racing, I love the driving done for the Bourne movies - so I'll go with the first of them. All the driving was done by a real driver, without the aid of CGI. The kind of precision driving that requires, along with the inability to damage too many vehicles beforehand, means the skills of the stunt drivers were exceptional.

Yeah, I gotta go with The Bourne Identity. It's truly exceptional driving.

If it had been plural, I'd have said the whole damned series - but the series with that bald-headed action star (Fast and Furious, I think?) has some pretty sweet driving in it, as well.

(Pardon me, if I'm not here long. I may fall asleep.)

Outstanding! It's really great to meet you.
While I do have a Voat account, I never spent much time there. It seems I got to that party late, and by then the place was inundated with people I didn't want to interact with.

As for my favorite kind of music......that's tough to pin down. The easiest label would be what we called "classic rock" in the 80s and 90s (Floyd, Zepplin, The Guess Who, Supertramp) but I have a lot of love for the 70s singer/songwriter balladeers, early hip-hop, R&B, soul, funk...lots of funk...Basically everything apart from gospel and late heavy metal spinoffs, though there are a couple exceptions in those genres too.

I have no idea what to share with you next, so how about some Ozzy?

It's not as much fun, 'cause you're only hearing the two guitar parts - but wait for it and it gets significantly more impressive.

Ozzy isn't one of my usual go-to musicians, but I have to admit that anyone who can play like that is fucking impressive.

If you're interested in joining us for the Friday Night Guitar Thread, it starts every Friday at 8pm et, and is fairly active for several hours, in v/guitar and will be stickied. We leave the last thread stickied until the new one starts.

In addition, we have a site just for the thread, completely separate from Voat, that among other topics has an archive of all the tracks submitted since the start in https://fngt.gq/forum/. There is also a search function that works well for song titles as well as artists (just search on username).

If you play any instrument at any skill level we'd love to have you submit tracks, or just join us for comments and merriment. Our loose 'motto' is "Be part of something you love instead of the things you hate". Although a scant few users stop by with some juvenilistic comment, it is almost completely free of anything more than people who enjoy homemade music and like to share it. I look forward to it each week as it is just a fun time without the clamor of the daily noise. Hope you can stop by sometime.
