Traffic in the Twin Cities will be nothing less than nightmarish tonight.

With people heading to First Avenue to see the Revolution, U.S. Bank Stadium for the Vikings, Target Field for the Twins, TCF Bank Stadium for the Gophers, the U of M for move-in, the State Fair, and a St. Paul Saints game, gridlock is expected (to say the least).

So what songs do you want to hear for the 9:30 Coffee Break that reference traffic, being stuck, patience, finding your center, etc.?

Songs played

Crosstown Traffic - Jimi Hendrix
Making The Freeway - fIREHOSE
Freeway - Aimee Mann
Patience - Guns n Roses
No Cars Go - Arcade Fire
Lost Highway - Hank Williams
Highway To Hell - AC/DC
