Alex “RaiderHater” Chavez is an active member of the Club49.org online community and suggested a wide variety of music that would kick start any tailgate party. His exhaustive research covers all genres and styles of music to fit anyone’s tastes. Paying close attention to many different music styles, Alex came up with a few top ten play lists chosen specifically with tailgating in mind. With all the great music out there to choose from you know it was difficult to narrow the lists down to just 10. Feel free to check out Alex’s suggestions and if you think you can come up with a better play list, tell us about it.
