Dj Khaled All I do is win, Twiztid Raw Deal, Ac/Dc hells bells or pretty much any ac/dc, Marilyn Manson Beautiful People and (s)aint, Metallica, and a few others... pretty much anything that gets me pumped especially some white zombie..

Mine depends on what ball speed I'm aiming for. Metal for when theyre dry, slow R&B for oil, and whatever else for in between.

Whatever pops into my empty head. It's usually Amazing Grace or something by Guns 'N Roses, Limp Bizkit, Hinder, Van Halen, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin. If it's a night they are playing classic rock then I just sing along with what's being played.
When I'm bowling against my ex-girlfriend's team I request "Lips of An Angel". Messes up her game every time. See, I said on another thread it was a good thing my wife doesn't go very often lol

She really despises the ex-girlfriend so I don't know but it wouldn't be a nice one.

Drive to the bowling alley with this song playing and tell me you don't get the feeling that something great is about to happen... Envision yourself bowling great.

By the way, I prefer songs and music that is more of a mellow and motivating sound like this to keep my mind focused, when heading to go bowl. I don't want to get all amped up like I'm about to play a hockey game and force mistakes. I want a calm, focused, state of mind.

Jason, usually I go to the alley after work. Seeing as the only two stations I can get in the car the whole way are country, I need the upbeat rock to balance me out.

Any guitar using drop D tuning mellows me

It used to be anything by Black Label Society for me, now it's anything by Foo Fighters.

My daughter played 'Break Stuff' by Limp Bizkit when I walked into the alley tonight. I was already rushing to get there and was plenty amped up. My first practice shot was 26mph.
Then they played 'Wanted' by Hunter Hayes. Why? Why? Why? Chick song during a mens league......

Well my personal fave is anything by Judas Preist because i was listeing to that while bowling and went 299-288-268 for a house record of 855.

Right now I have a mix of Nu-Metal/Rap/80's hair metal/Euro-Metal/Comedy songs i listen to while bowling.

I don't have a drive to the lanes, It's only about 200 feet from my front door. I end up listening to whatever they put on the jukebox at the alley. That can be anything from danzig to lady gaga, so I just tend to ignore whatever they play

I have a few fav's that pump me up for bowling. ICP, Twiztid, Mudvayne, Slayer, you know, good old fashion family music.

Wow, and I thought I lived close to an alley. There are probably four or five houses that are closer to my local bowling center than mine, I'm only sure of the three that I pass on the way there.

LOL!!! Lawrence Welk and his champagne bubble / polka music now that
should really get a bowler fired up listening to that maybe the bowlers up
in Minnesota listen to him up there in the polka part of the country. :p
