What do you listen to when you build?

[Vintagebikebuilder]

Thought this would be an interesting topic! I have an extremely wide variety. Some are, The Heavy, U2, Johnny Cash, Norman Greenbaum, Eve 6, Aerosmith, Rolling stones.. So much more it's crazy. I don't even know how I remember all the bands 8)

I usually have classic country on, but this always get me in the mood to build.

Whatever comes off of my phone. Last night, it was Yes, Rush & Led Zepplin that I recall. I don't tend to focus on it too much while working in the shop.

I have a little radio/CD/cassette thing in my shop, but I quit keeping CDs downstairs, so if I turn on the radio I can only pick up 1 station in this town and it's country, but not the old good stuff, it's the "top 40" of country, so basically a bunch of guys and gals who couldn't hit it big in pop radio so they twanged it up a bit.

That being said, I turn on and listen to my police scanner while I work in the shop, it's interesting late at night and plus the constant police radio calls coming out of my shop tend to keep anyone passing by from looking in for too long.

Keep my radio in my building playing 24/7 to Atlantas classic rock station.

Grunge.... :mrgreen:

this right here is your problem :lol: :lol: :lol:

I put an Ipod on with eveything but classical and hard core rap, I have a remote and if a song comes on that I
dont want to hear.. I just cue up the next song and there may be some grunge ... I will admit to nothing
everything from Hank SR... to zeplin

The little voices in my head......... :shock: (they help me design & think)

Mostly podcasts, but if I do choose music, it's either punk, or something heavy, like Rammstein.

 

[beatcad]

call me a dork, but i usually listen to NPR
why?
1)it's entertaining and educational
2)there's no music station in my area(anymore) that i can stand for more than maybe an hour.
3)i've got hundreds of CDs but if i'm workin on something and gettin dirty/greasy/sweaty i dont like to stop every 45 minutes to switch a CD :lol:

He means just nothing. Like no sound at all

Lately I've had to listen to the kid down the road asking "what you working on?" kinda reminds me of when I was little and did the same thing.

I listen to local stinky radio (cuz it's all stinky) just to have background noise. If I have my ipod plugged in, it's on random and believe me, my taste is really random.
