OK, not sure if this will work or not, but I thought it would be fun. So the idea is to list the songs and artists in a playlist and for other people to guess its theme.

Playlist #1

"Bicycle Races" - Queen
"Highway to Hell" - AC/DC
"Drive" - The Cars
"Kashmir" - Led Zeppelin
"London Calling" - The Clash
"No Excuses" - Alice in Chains
"Criminal Minded" - Boogie Down Productions
"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" - The Beatles
"F*ck the Police" - NWA

This one is very easy...

I like my water with hops, malt, hops, yeast, and hops.

Oh, I get it. Sorta like in Hackers where the mix tape is of artists who choked and died on their own vomit.

Oh, are all their lead singers dead? (Or at the very least missing a member)

Yeah - at least one member of the group who recorded the song is now dead.

Freddy Mercury
Bonn Scott
Benjamin Orr
John Bonham
Joe Strummer
Layne Staley
Scott La Rock
John Lennon/George Harrison
Easy E

And I actually forgot to put "Garden Grove" by Sublime on there, it's in the playlist. Of course, Brad Nowell died in the mid-90s of a heroin overdose.

Pretty much - two died of AIDS, a couple from cancer (IIRC), two were shot, one of alcohol poisoning and then a couple overdoses.

I think...
