The only time I've ever really had one was years and years ago, when my flatmate and I used to listen to "Mr Big Stuff" every night before we went out. It was the early 90s, too, which meant whatever it was we were putting on in terms of clothing was probably very ill-advised, and we would have done well to pay less attention to Mr Big Stuff and more to not looking ridiculous. Okay, she probably didn't look ridiculous, but I really liked baggy dungarees. Really. I did. With cute girly tops. I looked like I was about to go over fucking Niagara Falls.

Where was I?

Mr Big Stuff.

For a while, though, my 'going out song' was the entire Misfits box set, which frequently made me late. I'd try to stick to one or two songs, but I could never stop there.

I think they played in early October?

I love the Misfits. The funniest thing was about ten years ago when they played (during the early years of Michale on vocals) and they were in their full monster gear, and there was Doyle at the back of the club on the payphone, going, "Daddy misses you, sweetie, now be good for mommy and go to sleep," and blowing little kisses down the phone. It was officially the cutest thing that happened in the 1990s.

Anyway, Misfits=AWESOME AWESOME. Not so gone on their later stuff, but never before or since has a band made songs about eating brains so much fun.

Brains!
Brains for lunch,
brains for breakfast,
brains for brunch.
Brains at every single meal,
why can't we have some guts?!

Oi! Oi! Oi!

Gah, now I have to go find some misfits. Dammit, making me get off the couch and all.

Out in the Street by Bruce Springsteen!

52 girls by the b-52's


but then i usually stay in listening to it on repeat. Not quite as long as the entire misfits boxset though

 

[worthit]

This must be the place by Talking Heads.

Bluetip did a good version of 52 girls

As did Boredoms.

 

[worthit]

I completely forgot all about the existence of a band called the Offspring untill now. Thank you very much.

And I've also just realised that I haven't seen my Bluetip T-shirt in months. I hope I didn't lose it. Shit. I bought that straight from the hands of Jason Farrell.

I never go out without first listening to Spaceman by Babylon Zoo.

 

[spuded]

Sonic Reducer by the Dead Boys along with It's So Easy by G n' R always make me feel pretty good before i go out .|..|

 

[F. Fred Palakon]

I know someone who likes to listen to Hilary Duff before going out. This person also likes to prepare for a Saturday night out by watching the Disney matinee on Network Two. Yeah, a friend.

Out in the Street by Bruce Springsteen!

Or Wild Billy's Circus Story (still).

I have the same problem with Bruce as I did with the Misfits. I can't leave before I've played the whole album at least once, sometimes more. It makes me late.
