I pretty much listen to Bob fm 105.1. They play some old country all the way up to country from the mid 90's. Country is pretty much all I listen to. I like a few older rock songs but I've never been good with names or song titles. If I had some bluegrass I would listen to it from time to time. As well as some Indian flute music. That was something that my grandmother loved so I listened to it quite a bit. But I can't stand a blaring radio or one that's so soft I can't hear what is playing. It's just loud enough for me to hear good in the background. I also like local small bands, one is called Big Smith they have some good toe tapping music. A buddy turned me on to a group called Pokey Lafarge, you all should check them out on you tube! Patrick

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

My music taste while working is as eclectic as my personality. Everything from Pantera to Jackson Browne to Jackie Wilson to SRV. Whatever mood I'm in that particular day. Pandora is my shop buddy. Lol

I prefer quiet in the shop when I'm working
Ah, we like the same...
I'll send you a CD with silence on it so you can play it while you're working :laugh:

I did that once, cranked it as high as I could and broke off the knob!  Next thing you know, my neighbor came over and started raising hell.

He's a mime.

So I shot him.

I usually have the radio on. Either the local rock station (100.5 KATT) or a country station. country stations get switched when I start hearing too much of the "Nashville r&b." lol.

If I'm feeling young I move into the eighties. Some of my all time favorites are from the eighties. Since the sixties didn't happen until the seventies in Canada I get kind of confused. Probably something I did in the seventies ;) ;) ;)

Wow!  Heavy metal. Neil Young, Blackberry Smoke, Mountain , Dio.
Sounds like I'm in good company.  Can't headbang any more but still love it.

Wow, you were a time tripper!  It didn't come out until the summer of 1980!  I wrecked three vinyl copies and two cassettes over the years.  Now I have the Hayseed Dixie version of it from online.

I can't do anything in silence, so I have to listen to music while I make stuff.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac is my most played album in the workshop, but generally anything.  Opeth is a good band to carve wood to...

 I like listening to music when I'm listening to music. Always thought it was odd when people could basically not function at anything else unless they had music powering them along.
