Skullcandy FMJs. They say list is like 65 but you can find em in like radio shack for around 40ish. Really good sound quality, pretty good sound canceling, and really comfortable.

watch out for the 30$ skull candy earbud heaphones at best buy / target / etc. they dont fit in my ear and always pop out, and they have sound control on the wire so on some machines which require you to push your chest against it can turn the sound off..just some things to think about.

if i were you id definitely go for some dj sized headphones..yah ur gonna look like an idiot but it blocks out all of the sound and keeps in place.

but lately i just go to cvs and buy the ****** headphones there, they do the job

i have philips headphones but i payed around 75$ i got them 2 years ago and they still sound awesome. It's some double base headphones but it's like ipod headphones but a little bit bigger and they are black. If you crank them up you can feel the air from the little speaker blowing into your ear.

I know alot of people with Skull Candys and they broke within a few months of having them.

I have skullcandy lowriders on right now. They aren't the most comfortable thing in the world but they do the job. Got them for less than 20 on amazon

I lost my Skullcandy headphones (which I loved) and grabbed some of the Sennheisers. They were slightly more expensive (still cheap though) and they're great.

Yea, that guy is me, picked up a set of sony noise canceling ones for ~50 bucks. Only problem I have is they kinda slide when you bend over to pick up a bar etc. but other than that do an awesome job at removing the horrible pop music and replacing it with awesomely brootal music.
