Who ME??

90 percent of the time it's Mississippi Delta Blues, Miles Davis, or bluegrass. The other ten percent is a mish-mosh of genres from classical to heavy metal and everything in between.

Bluegrass, sometimes Chicago and Journey.

I listen to Irish drinking songs... is this what's wrong with my pipes?

Similar to a lot of what others listen too... I am surprised at how many still listen to punk, metal and thrash. I tend to listen to those genres when I'm cracking the whip on the theatre students during the final hours (sometimes days) of a set construction.

During pipe making time I tend to listen to jazz (Miles Davis radio on jango), Avett Brothers, Mumford and Sons, Dave Mathews, Cat Stevens, Rush, Pearl Jam, Eddie Vetter, Mark Lanegan, etc.

I try to leave the angry music alone, unless I need to indulge my anger.

sometimes during my ipod shuffle rage against the machine comes on and by the time the songs over I have broken my stem thrown my pipe punched some holes in walls. but man does it feel good

Like others, my iPod is set on random. From Copland and Tchaikovsky to NIN and System of a Down.

Black Sabbath, Kiss, The Bangles (sorry).

Aaah, shame, the Sas is actually a big softy!
Strange how taste in music show your age, I can see for example that me and Sas is more or less the same.
I normally listen to classics, blues or jazz.
(and I do actually like the Bangles too)

So you like big busted girls prancing around in nearly nothing also...

Ha!

we usually just end putting on the wood brothers most the time. I usually hit shuffle on my I pod but lately I cant get enough sublime.

I've been listening to a ton of Sublime in the studio too...
Normally I stream google music, but can't get a signal in the basement,
so I am playing old cd's....

I know not this metal of which you speak....



....also, if you can't hear the music over the sander or the buffer,
the music t'ain't loud enough.

+1 for Atom and His Package.
+2 for Flaming Lips.

I also tend to play a lot of minimalist techno because it's good space-filling music. It's also very repetitive; great for sanding!

It's all for me grogg,
me jolly, jolly grog,
all for me beer and tobacco!
I spent all me tin
with the lassies drinkin' gin
And across the western ocean I must wander.

I like a lot of celtic stuff, and folky bluegrass stuff like Nickle Creek! I never knew the connection.

I never listen while I butcher briar, though.

With you 100%, especially cracking the whip on students during a load in. Get to it!

The music is all over the place in my shop. Right now it's a lot of:

HIM
Avenged Sevenfold
Ray Lamontagne
Dimmu Borgir
Creedence Clearwater Revival (and John Fogerty solo)
Neil Young
HELL

I usually tend to go towards more "emotionall" music (like HIM) during hand-sanding, I don't know why, but other than that, I listen to whatever, whenever.
