OK, this is fairly stupid.

I'm going to be running the clock or keeping score at a couple of my son's upcoming hockey games. That means I can play some music over the PA between periods and during warmups (and if I want to be really obnoxious, during every stoppage in play).

His team is the Flyers (mites/6, 7 and 8-year olds) so my playlist consists of songs that feature the words fly, flying or flight in the title. Any other suggestions?

Group 1 (I'll try to work in as many as I can)
Curtis Mayfield - Superfly
Foo Fighters - Learn to Fly
Iron Maiden - Flight of Icarus
Led Zeppelin - Night Flight
Ozzy Osbourne - Flying High Again
Pearl Jam - Given to Fly
Pink Floyd - Learning to Fly
Rush - Fly by Night
Shawn Smith - Another Way to Fly
TMBG - Flying V
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers - Learning to Fly

Group 2 (only if I use everything in group 1, which is highly doubtful)
Billy Bragg & Wilco - My Flying Saucer
Kanye West - I'll Fly Away
Squirrel Nut Zippers - Flight of the Passing Fancy
The Beatles - Flying
The Sadies - Choosing to Fly
Vanity 5 - Flight of the Phoenicians

Group 3 (I'll almost definitely not use any of these)
Clutch - The Dragonfly
Grinderman - Honey Bee (Let's Fly to Mars)
Monster Magnet - I Control, I Fly
Rolling Stones - Sparks Will Fly, Flight 505
Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet with Butterfly Wings
The Jesus Lizard - Fly on the Wall
U2 - The Fly

    It's all about managing expectations.

    Had I gone with a subject like "***The OFFICIAL awesome youth hockey tunes thread*** your opinion might be different.

    OK, so on Sunday, I was scorekeeper but the guy who was running the clock got there before I did and he commandeered the music hookup so he got to play the tunes. He plays some decent stuff, but not exactly what I would pick.

    For example, if I'm gonna play a Metallica song, it'll be something like "For Whom the Bell Tolls" or maybe "The Four Horsemen" (I'm thinking that would work if our kids have a penalty called against them). He went with "Enter Sandman".

    I'm getting there early next Friday.
