I think that the coasters at Great Adventure should have song playing in the station when you are getting on it. If they decided to bring this back, these are the songs i'd like to here waiting on line
The Scream Machine would have "Shout at the Devil" by Motley Crue
Nitro would have "TNT" by AC/DC
Medusa would have "She" by the Misfits
Chiller would have "Ice, Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice
Runaway Train would have "Crazy Train" by Ozzy
Rolling Thunder would have "Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gee's
Put down what you guys would like to here

Actually, for a while, we were using Will Smith's "Wild Wild West" at Rolling Thunder until they told us to stop... the guests, and the employees, loved it.

Why'd they make you stop? Liscensing or something? Cause that's a great idea!

For the superhero rides it would be easy:just use soundtracks!I love the "Superman" music being played when I'm on "The Ride Of Steel" at S.F.America.If they can get permission to use old songs,fine.If they can get original songs(customized for that ride),even better!!

GASM- Stuck in America(i don't know why though???)
RT- Wild Wild West
Nitro- Techno.....like Circo Magnifico music AKA riddlers revenge remixes
Medusa - Ja Rule - Furious(clean version of course)
Batman- Batman Soundtrack music like they've been playin
Chiller- Ice Ice baby would be good, and music from the B&R soundtrack
Viper- Godsmake- Voo doo
RA train- Crazy Train by Ozzy is a definite
I started the tread music on coasters for this discussion but that turned out to be ride speils now.....so im glad to see this topic has been brought back to life

i just have to say that the sugarcult song "stuck in america" would be good for GASM it has an excellent beat and would just fit the coaster.

Why'd they make you stop? Liscensing or something? Cause that's a great idea! Yup. That and safety. Unfortunately, the way we "wired" the PA system (which is the original RT PA system) the music does not cut out when we use the microphone. AND, when we switch to the lift speakers, the music plays on the lift... a great idea we tested thoroughly and used... but unfortunately not good in the eyes of the "Electronics" department. The supervisors personally liked club music. And, in your little lists of songs for the rides, please keep in mind the staff would have to hear that music OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER, etc.  ~Dan |

It could never be as bad as Millennium Force's looping futuristic music! That stuff will drive you up a wall! ;D But I think they should do something. The OPs on the Medusa usually have music playing but the PA system sounds like crap. I think the worst sounding PA system in the park... Anyway... Chiller should do Enter Sand Man by Metallica and have strobe lights, fog machines, and stuff up in the loading station to get the ENERGY goin'!!  Exit light...
Enter night...
Take my hand...
Off to never never land!! |

While I haven't been on every ride in the park, the following rides have bad PA systems, as discussed in our leads meetings: *Rolling Thunder... supposedly we use the lift microphone "too much"...  * Nitro... same reason; that one I agree with. * GASM... anti-rollbacks on the train on the lift prevent anyone from hearing anything in the station. * Viper... the worst PA system in the park... hands down. Ever notice the operator screaming with their mouth literally on the microphone? Ugh... eight hours of that is tough... * Medusa... For my rides on Medusa, I've had no qualms about the PA system... then again, the boring operators never say anything exciting anyway... Then again, it doesn't matter what the operator says over the microphone... no one listens anyway! (Yeah, even I don't when I'm a guest...) ~Dan |

Actually, I think Gasm should have patriotic music like God bless america and America the beautiful. They could also take out the pics in the glass cases of ultra twister and other rides and put in things from american history, like the moon walk, and maybe even 9-11.
