I always liked making a theme tape for each character... My rigger, for
instance, when in a solo situation with the GM, has a tape for mood.
I play songs like:
East Bound and Down Jerry Reed
Hot Rod Lincoln (when I can find a copy)
Tickin' in my Head Redone by Anthrax
Warriors of Metal Anthrax
I'm the Man '94 Anthrax
Most of these are particularly appropriate for riggers, but can be used
in a lot of games (Warriors of Metal is great for a Btech game BTW), and
lend a tad bit of adrenaline to a game at appropriate intervals. All of
them are hard and fast songs. WoM is also good for sams...

When all else fails, read the manual.
