Your AM JAMZ
Thursday, March 18, 2010
We want to know what's going on inside those earbuds during your morning commute. Readers from Brooklyn to White Plains to San Francisco have already weighed in.
• Pat Hipp commutes from Park Slope to Canal Street. On the walk to the F train, Hipp listed to "Bastards Of Young" by The Replacements and "Some Weird Sin" by Iggy Pop. On the train, the playlist jumped to "Spectacular Views" by Rilo Kiley and then to Wilco's "Company in my Back."
• Alex R. travels from White Plains to Williamsburg. His playlist included tracks by Hercules & Love Affair, Smoking Popes, Antony & the Johnsons and The Virgins.
• Tobias Carroll crosses the Newtown Creek via the Pulaski Bridge to end up in Long Island City. Along the way, Carroll's got Frightened Rabbit and F**k Buttons on.
