My favorite is definitely Lounge Act. Krist was a fantastic bassist, despite being overshadowed by Kurt. It always seems to be moving, it's a blast. It's always either sliding or dancing around the fetboard. Second would be Anesthesia for reasons I don't even need to explain.
Also, I was not exactly sure what board this would fit best in, probably here.

another one bites the dust- queen
miss murder- afi
tom sawyer- rush
seven nation army- white stripes
play that funky music- wild cherry
stuff like that...
to see some bobbing their head when they recognize what you are playing to me is fun. |

Of course there's always the straightforward fast stuff like The Trooper, Fight Fire With Fire, and Holy Wars...the Punishment Due.

| | | | The Lemon Song by Led Zeppelin, pretty much anything from the first 4 Queen albums (later ones were much simpler), YYZ, YMCA by the Village People... It's really fun, I swear!

with the Polk Salad Annie riff. It gets pretty funny -- and cool --
sometimes. |
