Guys camping trip in a few weeks. Card playing, cigar smoking, beer drinking, etc. Each of us is supposed to bring some music.

I’m trying to put together a themed playlist. A few of the guys are going through some women problems, divorce, etc.

So I’m looking for some music that might reflect the mood.

I don’t mean the feminist sexual objectification idea of misogyny necessarily.

I’m thinking more in the ‘Cherchez la femme’ vein, where a source of problems and/or pain is (a) woman.

Any suggestions are appreciated.

Tom Waits,['Better Off Without A Wife.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajLCN39BmjE) More humorous than acrimonious, but… 🙂  
[She Got the Goldmine, I got the Shaft](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHvIcHbEHSU) 😃 Jerry Reed ROCKS!!

Celo Green’s[’Forget You’](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wfnja5pTil4%5B/url) (otherwise known as Fuck You, which works better 😉

Of course I meant the Rolling Stones song (as a companion to “Under My Thumb”), not the similarly titled Garbage one.

Thanks,

Perfered genre varies since each guy brings his own stuff, but its mostly metal/hard/classic rock. One guys brings some country, another is into new alternative.

Ah, duh. :smack: I like the one by Garbage, but it’s sung by a woman and addressed to one. It’s not bad for this purpose though, in that the lyrics chastise the woman for being a fake and repeating stuff like “all you had, you wasted.”
