Funny you brought up that we still call ringtones "ring." We still say 'dial the telephone' and I haven't seen a rotary dial for years. It was tough sneaking onto the phone when I was a teen and was grounded!

Right now it's the intro from Beru Revue's Hoods-a-Gogo, which will only make sense to people of a certain age from the Philadelphia area.

Prior to that I was using the hotline phone sound from In Like Flint/Our Man Flint.

To mix things up a little bit I also have The Doors - Alabama Song, Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall, Psycho, and The Imperial March from Star Wars.

I realized at work last night that I have to put together a ringtone for They're Coming to Take Me Away.

Just for Wolf, Beru Revue 25th anniversary:

http://philadelphia.craigslist.org/muc/204845676.html

Dopey me, I was actually only vaguely aware of the scene at the time and thus do not know any of the Beru material and thus have no interest. But there it is.

There has been much discussion of this on the Beru Yahoo List. I have already ordered my ticket.

There should be music available for download on Bobby Carburetor's site, anditgoes.com, which is a great resource for the Philadelphia Music Scene.

Guitar riff from Layla for anyone that's on my contact list.

"Who Are You" for anyone else.

Mine's something classical that came with the phone. But a gal on the train I take to work has the best ringtone ever. It sounds exactly like a good old Ma Bell phone circa 1960. To hear that on the train cracks me up because it's so retro and so out of place.

If you find it, let me know - I would LOVE to have that as a dial tone!
